well I just went sun tzu on the grocery
becoming a hacker like I have been has changed the way I think because now its like when I want to exploit a system I gather intelligence on it and begin to look for a vulnerability from that intelligence and I just figured it out. It's really stupid. After 24 hours I guess 4 hours ago A thought hit me which was when you created account three it asked for 4 data points. Email address, zip code, first name, last name. Now those details analytically cannot be used to guess someone is using two accounts at once. They aren't revelatory or exacting enough which means there has to be a fifth variable I'm not considering yet
Which leaves only the debit card and credit cards. Which means there is nothing holding this entire house of cards up at all save for relying on peoples honestly and consumers to do what consumers usually do which is to use a card to pay for groceries. But imagine someone uses more accounts to circumvent the limits and only pays with cash.
Its not average behavior but its a gaping wide hole in their system. I now know it had to be the payment card they used to tie our two accounts as belonging to the same household. Which means I now know how to thwart the clever person who thwarted me first. I'm smarter than you kid. I just used deductive reasoning to eliminate 4 of 5 data points leaving only one exacting enough to tie accounts to the same household. I have a new super power unlocked and at my disposal. A brand new zero day exploit that means money in my pocket. The thing is if it could be no other data points it has to be the only one remaining. The debit card. So by sheer cunning and analytical skill and deductive reasoning skills, I've discovered their weakness and now their system is my oyster to exploit.
