Anonymous 17 year old hacker shares how he started in seventh grade and, at 15, found an item duplication bug in an online game that he says made his group about $130,000 in 4 months. He later helped build a CSGO style case opening platform for another game, using bots for deposits and withdrawals, and claims it now brings in $200,000 a month. We also get into how exploits spread, the ethical and legal risks, and why he wants to go legit next.
