Live bait fishing
I heard stories when they grabbed the guys installing pirated software, but it was so far from me. And now it’s very close.
My friend works as an administrator. Today he had the next dialogue over the phone.
- Good afternoon, Roman. I was advised you as a specialist in installing Windows.
- Hello, that's right. How did you hear about me?
- Ivanova advised you.
- Yeah, I know that.
- We need to install Windows 7 on several computers. Well, there’s still an office and other programs. 2000 rubles. Take it
/// for our city and given the age of my friend, this is acceptable money. \\\\\\
- Yes, I'm interested. If computers pull on hardware, then no problem.
- Well, what computers I can’t say yet. We have some kind of discs, but maybe you will take yours with you just in case?
- Well, I'll take it, of course.
- Do you have licensed discs?
- Not.
- I see. Well then tomorrow at 6 o’clock. Conveniently? A street such and such, a house such and such, an apartment such and such. 4 computers.
...
In general, in that spirit. The dialogue is not verbatim, of course.
This is not the first time to hear him. I had to help strangers on the advice of friends. But he immediately called his friend Ivanova. She said that she really advised him to a certain Olga.
And my friend without any second thoughts told his colleagues about it. This saved him. The guys showed him a message in contact, which was like two drops of water similar to an ongoing dialogue. This is our police arranging such setups. Somehow it's mean or something: instead of getting down to business, they catch the boys. Obviously, the plan is being implemented.
I do not condone my friend and I understand that less and less people are now trailing this, but they exist and would not want anyone to get caught in this way. Especially if you do it by acquaintance for a minimum reward. What is unpleasant in this story is that a familiar person whom you trust has failed.
