Today on Scam School School, we’re heading back to the vault for Episode 131 to declassify "Cheat your friends at a fair coin toss!" We’re breaking down the mechanics of tactile illusion, auditory misdirection, and how to control the outcome of a supposedly random event right in front of your target's eyes. It’s a masterclass in exploiting baseline assumptions—the exact same conceptual framework we use in #wolfmasking to manipulate an adversary into trusting a system's output because they believe the underlying mechanics are completely uncompromised.
