[CLOSED} Amazon Subsection - Pro_SE - 12-13-2017

I was browsing through the "Social Engineering" section, and most of it was taken up by Amazon stuff. Technically this is not Social Engineering, but fraud.

I thought it might be a good idea to have a subsection in Social Engineering, but specifically for Amazon.

I don't think this would be much of a good idea, as we have had members in the past get a little mad over this stuff. We have even talked about removing the SE section overall.

oh, I didn't realize. I just thought it might make the people who get annoyed over people talking about Amazon on the SE section less annoyed.

True, but I think it would only attract more amazon people :/

Although the outcome In a lot of cases Is relative to financial gain, the methodologies used (In a lot of methods) to achieve the objective, are In fact social engineering.

On these grounds, I believe a subsection Is not warranted.
