        There was a famous case of a Soviet spy who got caught by the FBI because of the way he carried his flowers.

        In the US, if someone buys flowers, then while walking with them, the person normally carries them with the flowers up, stems down. The ‘normal’ way.

        In Russia, to protect the flower tops from rain, snow, cold, and wind, the average person carries the bunch of flowers with the stems facing up/forward, flowers pointing down/back.

        This spy bought flowers for some reason, and an FBI agent noticed he carried them the Russian way.

        If you ever get a chance to read any of Joe Navarro’s books, he’s a very good writer. I highly recommend “3 Minutes to Midnight”

    If anything she would angle for a straight simple relationship. Get his trust and and have a lot of texting emailing going on. Then send him an email at work with a back door. Hopefully a funny one or interesting one so he shares it.

    Then she/they have access to the computer network and data base. If they were smart the target would be in either IT or management so they have more access rights.

    Okay but like, being a honeypot girl must be really hard because you kinda have to care about a topic to retain information about it. My husband started working with military ships or something like that and whenever he tells me ship facts (that are publicly available, he always cross-references Wikipedia) my eyes just fucking glaze over and I zone out because I have no interest in anything ship-related.

    So Lockheed Martin girl must have a special interest in airplanes. It must be so hard to fight the autistic urge to correct a guy who gets his airplane facts wrong.

      If someone’s paying me a shitload of money for getting information I’ll be interested in whatever they want.

      She don’t have to. Record it via hidden mic, and it’s just an art of asking correctly. Like “Oh I remember something about F35. My professor told <obviously incorrect info> and that’s why it’s worse than…”

      Obviously you need to know the subject a bit but mainly you need to know the cognitive tricks.

      First, we need the F35 on the game, then we need russian players paying the devs to nerf it until any il-2 can take down the F35, which will prompt an enraged player to leak classified info on the plane just to prove his point about a minimal stat change.

        I’m actually like 60% sure the reason War Thunder doesn’t have an F-35 in the game is to prevent leaks.

          Realistically though china stole everything they needed years ago. The J-35 is an absolute pisstake ripoff.

      Start ranting about sprints and how you took 25 story points last sprint and STEVE THAT LAZY BITCH only took 18, but you think on top of it the tshirt sizing of your features was too optimistic, and make her fucking dread the agile.

      But key thing is to lead her on a little bit here and there, like if she asks what you work on, just say “oh can’t talk much about it, kinda nuclear related”, so she never gets pulled off your case. And promise to tell her the intimate details and tell her one day you can send her the source code you’re helping integrate.

      Then send her bootstrap.css and go into way too much detail about how how you’re aligning buttons for the top secret application

          Imagine that: you’re a nation and know the enemy wants to steal your secrets by seducing your people. The best way to avoid it is to have them waste as much time as possible on fake targets. So you hire a bunch of lonely nerds who work in totally mundane fields and give them a crash course in looking like they do top secret stuff.

          I’d watch that movie.
