Wrong thread hope this gets moved to the right spot.
I moved to South Carolina because my parents had no choice but to buy a house there. We live in a safe, basic old town — nothing special.
At 6 years old I started getting into computers. I thought they were the coolest thing. I spent my whole life on computers and never left my room. My parents started getting worried because I never had friends and I was becoming antisocial. I don't talk much at school. I'm only into computers because something about them gives me freedom. But my parents took my computer away and locked it up in a secure case. I was sad. At the dinner table I said, “I want my computer back.” I showed them a report card which I hacked from the school system it had a vulnerable system and my parents gave me my computer back because I made them hope I had friends and good grades, which I didn't. I lied. I only had friends on the internet because online you can't see each other's faces, which made me feel safe. On the internet, you name it gaming forums and cool stuff. I was a clicker, clicking to make money for one of those services. I would switch IPs and make about $20 per week. Not much, but it was saving for college because this is what I wanted to be. I found my pace you have to start somewhere and grow stronger. My name is Michael Murphy. I want to become a white-hat hacker. I take down phishing sites using scripts I created to spam junk at the websites and to hack scammers from India who act like Microsoft, etc.
Thank you for having me here.
