For people who are having problem with the "[email protected]" situation, consider using ROT13 or some other similar scheme (hilton becomes uvygba).

Other alternatives include:

1. shorten it so much that it's not revealing anymore ([email protected])

2. use another language if you're multilingual ([email protected] for Japanese)

The Zimmermann Telegram was WW1 though, not WW2.

Many people reuse emails and passwords, so if such a victim sign up for scam.com, all of their other credentials were basically compromised too.

(Not saying that that's what's happening here. I initially suspected that amazon.jobs was a scam site; I think OP did too, hence the question.)

The point of this type of honeypots is to entice the blackhats to just take the crypto and walk away. Making it harder for them to walk away with the money would be counter-productive.

Old situation: blackhats sticks around for weeks or even months, exfiltrate data, blackmail, install crypto miners, etc.

With crypto honeypot: blackhats take the crypto and leaves.

With rigged crypto honeypots that are actually not redeemable:

Sorry, I wasn't clear: I'm not advocating for any particular method. I was just trying to explain why Myth #1 remained so persistent for so long.

Method 1: salt and pepper, then cook immediately

Method 2: salt and pepper, let rest, then cook

Method 3: salting hours in advance, let it sit in the fridge, then cook

Obviously 3 > 2 > 1, but Method 3 wasn't done historically (by most cooks). Cooks either went with Method 1 or Method 2, and Method 2 "won" out in the end because people consistently noticed that it produced better results. Myth #1 was an incorrect explanation as to why Method 2 is better than Method 1.

There's a reason why Myth #1 is so persistent: the action itself works, just not for the reason advertised.

Most cooks who advocate for Myth #1 will salt and pepper the steak, then let it rest for 20-30 minutes. The salt draws out some of the moisture from the surface of the steak and leaves it behind on the resting surface. The less moisture that enters the pan means better browning.
