Fired hacker twins forget to end Teams recording, capture own crimes
- Thread starter JournalBot
- Start date
Yet when I want to record my meetings it never works. Huh. Guess I just need to do more shady stuff.

Of course these guys are less the shadowed hackers lit only by the green glow of their old-school terminals and more the leads in Dumb and Dumber; anyone with intelligence who gets fired is going to turn in their gear, accept the termination terms or challenge them via lawyer, and never, never so much as glance in the direction of that network ever again

I wondered how they got the play by play and their conversations.
That makes sense.

Amazing. Nice find (and some killer deadpan delivery). I definitely read this line in the Arrested Development narrator voice:

Bloody hell I know Teams has crap UI as in I misclick and hit leave meeting instead of the share screen button (seriously Microsoft who thought that was good placement? and yes I’m an idiot and have done that a few too many times for my liking) but it is pretty bloody obvious a meeting is recoding via icons and pop up messages. What a pair of eejits

How on earth did the contractor fail to find a prior conviction for both of them?
Good job morons, now you're not just fired, you're fired and going to prison for violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act

Did they think that Texas doesn't have extradition with other states, or what?

Hopefully they will be old men by the time they come out, long enough to learn to speak more eloquently.

Teams Copilot's meeting transcription feature likely improved prosecutors' productivity.
(I believe "Company-1" has a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.)
It compiles conversations and automatically summarizes deadlines and responsibilities. While Copilot's reputation is mixed, I'm always impressed by the capabilities of its Teams transcription.

The vast difference being that "reality TV" is scripted, and fake as hell, while this is unscripted hell.

If you have ever been contacted by corporate "head hunters", you would realize how easy it is for them to miss EVERYTHING. I have been contacted over a dozen times, each one telling me that they found the perfect job for me, which I had have never requested. The punch line is that when I always turned them down every time with "not interested", their invariant response was ALWAYS, "do you know someone else who could be interested in this position?" That is the extent of their "checking". They found someone who wanted that job.

These guys remind me of the Dhaliwal brothers, whose friend was mauled and killed by the tiger they were taunting. Except justice seems to have aligned properly here.

Probably you need to try to not record it like these morons. Then it'll glitch out and make one for you.

Given that they both spent time in prison for cyber fraud and not only deleted all those databases, they also (accidentally, but still...) recorded themselves doing so...
They could spend decades in prison and not learn a damn thing. I'll bet they end up in prison again after they serve their sentences for this.

The hiring manager screwed up, and is himself "no longer with the company".

They're both connected to the meeting using their usernames and their own mic and camera.
Which doesn't answer the question...

I wonder what the story is there. Honestly forgot to background check them? "Forgot" to background check them for consideration. Or did background check them, but ignored it for consideration from the two.
Since both got hired I'm assuming he either didn't check anyone, or was bribed in some way that the cops didn't think worth prosecuting.
