This reminds of when I was 13 I used to tell my opponents in Warcraft 3 that pessing alt+q+q quickly reveals the map. It’s a shortcut for closing the game. Worked way to many times

I do see this working

ALT+F4 for free funds, opened alot of slots on bfh servers whenever my friends couldn’t join.

Haha, god I loved doing this on Counter-Strike. “Did you guys hear about the hidden tit pics in counter strike? No shit, hold alt and press f4 and it shows the best tits I’ve ever seen. I don’t know how game developers get away with this stuff.”

Half the lobby is gone, the other half is laughing.

was funny when someone said “alt f4” and 3 people immediately leave LOL

also makes the victims self selecting, much like the deliberate spelling errors in scam mails.

We’d constantly get people by telling them holding alt and typing fax would get mirc to give them ops. Usually about a quarter of the channel would drop out.

btw if you want to try and hack me, my IP is 127.0.0.1

Yeah, and you can dupe items in RuneScape by dropping them and pressing Alt+F4. Don’t worry, I’ll stand way over here to prove I’m not trying to steal it. If I try to pick up the item you’ll see me move, and you can just pick it up first.

Except for the fact that a lot of less tech savvy people will fall for it.
