So they sent .exe files to the victim, under the pretext that the victim was supposed to duplicate their functionality in C++? Receiving an .exe file from someone should be a dead giveaway that this is an attack, or at least, that the person sending it to you is incredibly technically incompetent. But then again, I lived through the Windows 95 era. I suppose some lessons have to be re-learned with every new generation.
