How do you know if someone’s running game on you by way of social engineering? This is a guide to read the signs like an operative in the field.

Social engineering isn’t some Hollywood script. It’s real, it’s subtle, and it’s dangerous. Operatives, hackers, con artists, call ’em what you want, they don’t need a gun or a lockpick to get into your life. All they need is access to you. Your habits, your trust, your routines. That’s the real weapon. And if you don’t know how to spot it, you’re already compromised.

Social engineering isn’t about brute force – it’s finesse, deception, and reading people. It’s part of every operative’s tradecraft toolkit, and if you’re not on the lookout, you’re the mark. Always question intent. If someone’s pushing for trust before they’ve earned it, odds are they’re playing a deeper game.
