I am an incipient scambaiter learning how to get control of a scammer's computer during their connection to mine (a virtual machine of course). There are well known scambaiters that then copy the scammer's files to their computer and delete large blocs of files off of the scammer's computer. I think, however, that the scammers can fairly easily recover from this situation if they maintain a comprehensive backup system.
I am thinking of a different procedure the might make it harder for them to get back in the game. After copying files that might be useful, I am looking for software that would randomly move files individually and interspirse files to other directories. Additionally, I would like to alter the names of the moved files. I think this process would make it more difficult to restore their system. This could make it a challenge to backup/restore back to original. Plus the size of the altered disk and directories would be the same as before making it not so immediately obvious they had been attacked.
This does look like a programmable project for myself but I thought I would see what is out there for adaptation.
If this is seen as some kind of violation of the ethics of topics range of this BB, I will delete it
thanks, tom kosvic
