Hello, this may sound of topic but hear me out, I recently had a conversation with “x” person let’s call it David, so David and I were talking about some books and the theme crypto comes to the table, David is against cryptocurrency cause he thinks that is going to be controlled anyway and can be hacked by the government and been shut down, I tried to explain to him but, it didn’t turn out really well and I am not a hacer or cryptographer, just a privacy enthusiastic and nothing more, yeah I have some technical knowledge but is nothing compare to professionals.

TLDR: David has some inquiries about cryptocurrency security, and that it will be take down in a hack by the government

So, I’ve been inspired by Jim Browning. Yadda yadda. All that stuff. I hate call centers just as much as y’all probably do. However, I figured hacking into them like how he does would be kind of fun to do myself. The hacking part itself isn’t an issue though; it’s just the recon part. I don’t exactly know what I’m up against.

I don’t really know of a plausible way to get the operating system used by most indian scammers. I plan on designing a RAT (ideally the meterpreter since i’d like to not reinvent the wheel; but if that truly won’t work i take no issue making one of my own), but since Windows 10 and up comes with Defender while stuff like Win7 (which may still be used) doesn’t, I don’t know what exactly to do.

I understand scammers are dumb and it’s not exactly going to be the same to a pentest or something, but I’d also like to not underestimate them since that’d have a high possibility of backfiring. Is there any bit of information I can get without actively attacking them blindly, or?

(Sorry for the incoherent post, if it is incoherent)
