I can not paste any coupons here but /b/ will be happy to deliver. Visit 4chan and I am sure you will find a thread full of fake coupons. However I find that coupons are not enough, I recommend a little photoshop.

Here is an example:
I believe handing this to a cashier would raise a lot of suspicion. However... let's use this example now
Now, the original is a full sheet of paper, printed on Cardstock (thick paper) and perforated along the dotted line with an X-acto knife. A much more believable story and more authoritative coupon.

This is not just a coupon, it is an alibi. No one just gets free DS coupons, but if you have something to explain how it was achieved and it is printed on something rather than ordinary old printer paper, it starts to look more official. A real criminal would put some effort into it.



The Dollar Business Card - Ultimate advertising.


Business cards are most often expensive, and a lot of work goes into deciding what material card you can afford, if you want matte or glossy, do you want color or black and white? At the end of the day you spend a lot of time and effort and most importantly money trying to figure out what will work, what will actually grab the attention of the target. well with a little bit of brain "hacking", almost.. social engineering if you will... We can make business cards at home on plain paper that is garunteed to get a lot of attention, and all you have to do.. is drop them on the ground.

So what is it?


Money! plain and simple. Our capitalist minds are hell bent on obtaining a dollar in any way possible and it is drilled into our heads to stand out. Much like the color red stands out to us because in the wild red normally means danger (blood, poisonous animals, so on) the dollar also stands out in our minds just as well. So what is our plan?
Business card on one side, money on the other. Fold it up, drop it. It is all too simple my friends.

Best Buy Store pricing flaw - Discount any item


For this tutorial I am going to need to place an extra and special disclaimer.
The following tutorial is intended for information uses only. By publishing this information we hope to see companies like Best Buy make major security improvements by showing large flaws in the pricing system. We take no responsibility for how the materials in this tutorial are used. If for any reason someone is to use the provided images and files for anything other than informational use that person could be charged and possibly sent to jail, again we do not agree with any illegal activity.
     Alright, so today we will be looking at a flaw in the current pricing system of all stores, using Best Buy as an example. This tutorial is essentially: "How to hack Best Buy", however this is just one example for one store. Right now we have a law against "False advertising" which is why when an item on the shelf of a store is marked lower than the price comes up at the register, the product must be sold to you at the marked price. When an item is rung up, and a customer says that the item was displayed cheaper, an associate in the store will preform a "Price check" meaning he or she will walk over to the item and simply read the price to verify.

So where is the flaw?


     The flaw is that the price tags in Best Buy don't have any type of safety against duplication, they price tags are printed on a fairly standard regular old sticker paper. So what if someone was to just... replicate a price tag?
