This guy did some serious social engineering.

Code:

One man sensationally walked into a branch of Asda, wearing a ‘smart suit’ and proceeded to rob the store of £40,000.

He did this by impersonating a member of staff, acting as though he worked in the Bureau de Change, and handing out euros and other currencies in exchange for pounds.

After handing out various amounts to customers, he then finished the end of his ‘shift’ and gained access to the Bureau de Change’s safe, and walked out with a huge amount of cash, that is thought to total around £40,000.

The theft took place at the Trafford Park Asda, with the man acting cool and collected, even when approached by a senior member of staff.

The power of SE'ing.

When exhausting the right methodologies, It's amazing what can be achieved.

[Losi]

It's amazing how far confidence can get you.

I think the funniest part of this story is the fact it is ASDA he stole from. To give people outside of the UK some context... They're owned by walmart. It's like stealing from a 99p store. It's amazing that he made so much xD

Senior: "Hey, you there, in the suit!!!

SE: Shit, shit shit shit shit shit.

SE: "Yes, sir?"

Senior: "Haven't seen you around here, who are you?"

SE: "Ehh, an intern."

Senior: "Oh, in that case, no questions asked, continue."

SE: "Sure...."

SE: This went smoother than I expected.

This is why robots will take over at one point. Probably just to remove human error.

Except that robots are programmed by humans, and have plenty of error as is.

Artificial intelligence may one day take over the human race.

Artificial intelligence may one day take over the human race.

Assuming that humans would be able to understand human knowledge. Can't replicate something if you don't know what you're replicating

I read about something similar happening to Walmart a while back.
