Nice work OP.

You gave them a tech analysis that should be worth some money, for free, at the same time (hopefully) bringing to their attention how bounty programs are a helpful thing for everyone. They should be feeling very lucky about it.

However, the thing that worries me with these things is that, what if some "bad guys" already knew about this and exploiting it and now that the bank is aware and might close the hole, makes them angry and looking for retaliation?

Hopefully you are taking precautions to be anonymous, but I know that where I live if I were to pull a stunt like that I would seriously consider watching my back for a while.

Sad world we live in :( so take care OP.

He is in Sweden. So definitely safer than being in India :-) Adding to that, I don't think bad guys from the computer world would go to great lengths to harm someone from physical world.

I wouldn't be so sure of that.

Being in Switzerland definitely helps, but still, India being a very big country it wouldn't surprise me if they had some really-bad-guys(TM) mafias capable of hurting people in other countries.

Of course, a small thing like this wouldn't necessarily pop up in their radars but still...

I guess part of the reason I think this way is because I live in a country where this is a real threat. Where posting things that real-bad-guys(TM) don't like can literally get you tortured and killed.

I see what you did there.

Ahhh.... yes... damn. Didn't do it on purpose. Sorry about that 0x424242. I am always getting those two mixed up, even in my mother tongue.

:(

I guess the point still stands as I originally intended it though. Again.. sorry for the confusion. Even though I know my geography reasonably well, my mind brings the word and my mouth or fingers say something else.

This never gets old.
