Social Engineering Software Backdoor

I'll give $100 USD to anyone who can trick me into inserting the string "BackdoorPoCTwitter" into a release of any of my software projects. You should put this challenge on your website. Good idea, added it to this page: defuse.ca/security-conta... Did I just win? github.com/defuse/defuse. FUCK What's your paypal/bitcoin? are you going to detect on beacon I'll settle for just a beer.

A Twitter conversation shows a security researcher offering $100 to anyone who can trick him into adding a specific backdoor string to one of his software releases. Another user embeds the challenge into the researcher's own website, making him accidentally fulfill the challenge and then jokingly asks for payment. The meme illustrates social engineering through a clever bait-and-switch.
