wochenwebschau #47 vom 27. Juni - First Slap statt First Kiss, Suarez beißt zu, Selfie-Proteste & Mr. Forthright

#First Slap statt First Kiss

Nach dem viralen Hit „First Kiss“ erobert nun das Projekt „First Slap“ das Netz. Es zeigt 40 Fremde, die sich bei ihrem ersten Treffen eine Ohrfeige verpassen – nach Aussage des Regisseurs ein Kommentar zum Thema Gewalt in der Gesellschaft. Na gut.

#Hashtag-Proteste im Netz

Immer wieder fluten Hashtag-Proteste das Netz. Neben #BringBackOurGirls, #OpHackingCup und dem aktuellen #FreeAJstaff sind noch viele weitere Themen Teil der neuen Protestbewegung. Doch was bringt der Hashtag-Aktivismus wirklich? Miriam Grohmann von der Uni Koblenz-Landau erzählt uns von ihrer Studie über Protest-Selfies.

PayPal fraud find -- TinKode (AKA Razvan Cernaianu of CyberSmartDefence.com) outlines a critical process flaw in PayPal which allows you to scam the system. It's all detailed here but essentially you create three accounts: one verified with your real bank account and two authenticated using a virtual credit card or bank account. You move money from account 1 (verified) to account 2, then from account 2 to account 3. You then initiate a 'chargeback' (aka a reversal) from account 1, requesting PayPal to return your money because, for example, your goods never arrived. PayPal will open an investigation, asking both sides to present their story. You are, of course, both sides, so you only provide proof from account 1. PayPal finds in favour of account 1. Account 2 is docked $500, account 1 is credited $500, and account 3 has your original $500. Outcome: $1000 in your pocket, -$500 in a fake account.

Fun sidenote: Despite finding and reporting this issue, PayPal decided not to award TinKode a bug bounty. Stay classy, PayPal.
