In the following screen we are asked whether we want "Perform a SMS Spoofing Attack" or "Create a Social Engineering Template." Select #1. We have previously used SET to spear phish in BackTrack, but the one we want this time is "SMS Spoofing Attack Vector." To begin this attack, Select #7. SET is capable of numerous social engineering attacks. This will start the SET opening screen as seen below. Let's begin by firing up Backtrack 5 and then navigating to Applications -> Exploitation Tools -> Social Engineering Tools -> Social Engineering Toolkit (SET), then select "set" as I have done in the screenshot below. Step 1) Fire Up BackTrack & Start Social Engineering Toolkit (SET) Luckily, though, it is still in BackTrack, so for this tutorial, we will be reverting to our trusty BackTrack installation (one more example that the newest is not always the best). On the show, Elliot's f/society comrades use Kali to send the spoofed SMS, but this feature has been discontinued in recent versions of Kali.

In this tutorial, I will show you how Elliot's comrades at f/society were able to send the Steel Mountain manager an urgent, spoofed text message that appeared to come from her husband indicating that he was at the hospital and had a serious health issue. The text message did not actually come from her husband, but rather from one of Elliot's f/society comrades. At the very moment that she is about to escort him to the elevator and out of the facility, she receives a text message from her husband that is urgent and distracts here. He intends to place the RP inside the network to manipulate the HVAC system to raise the temperature in the storage facility and destroy the tapes that contain the records of 70% of the world's consumer debt, including student loans. In episode 5, when Elliot is able to social engineer his way into the Steel Mountain's state of the art, "impenetrable" storage facility, a manager gets suspicious and begins to escort him out of the building before he can implant the Raspberry Pi (which we made in the last guide).

This show is so good, I began a series to demonstrate how to do the hacks he uses in the show.

Robot is probably the best hacker TV show ever! This is a great show about a cyber security engineer who is being enticed to hack the very corporation he's being paid to protect.
