    We used to call those who would fall for these tricks "script kiddies", as all they know about how to "hack" is to blindly run things others have made.

    This is quite genius.

    A great example of cybercrime tools being used for good

    Reminds me of how Russian malware never runs if it detects the PC having Russian as the default language

    Ah, a classic. I 'member this kind of stuff from decades ago already, and of course also with cheat tools, keygens and whatnot. No chance I'd run a keygen outside of a VM, and for good reasons.
