Hmm, how much money this scam would potentially generates? I think the salary of an engineer working on twitter would be higher given how fast this scam would be shut down. Would a twitter employee risk their career to this scam?

If you can't get caught, it's just some free money... depends on moral compass...

Maybe we'll get a leetcode question out of it, how much should you risk your career for after taking a job at a FAANG?

More than 130k, that's for sure. It would have to be orders of magnitude larger.

That would be hilarious and full of irony.

Given that most FANGers are obsessed with cash, I'm pretty sure they'd say "yes" to risking their career for some sweet BTC.

I would be surprised if it were an engineer, but not everyone who is employed would be an engineer. When I was at Google two fairly high profile incidents were enacted by contractors (one in the IT "TechStop" group and one a data center tech)

It might as well be an employee whose devices were compromised.
