π£ Phish Stories @ DEF CON 34 β We're Going to the Movies!
Phish Stories is back, and this year we went to the movies.
The Grand Parkway 34 is the biggest multiplex in Chicago, and somebody just decided to rip out the classic film screening rooms and replace them with live sports, esports tournaments, and video podcasts. The staff is exhausted, the technology is held together with hope, and the launch is days away.
We've put some teeth into the contest this year. If you want two thumbs up, you'd better pay attention.
Your job? Write a phishing email targeting one of the people trying to keep this thing from falling apart. Make them click. Make us laugh. Win your way into DEF CON.
Full rules and scenario on the website:

================ # Important Dates # ================ CFP Closes: June 7th (midnight or bust) CFP Selection notification: June 28th Pre-recorded talks due: July 26th DEF CON: August 7-9 =========== # More info # =========== The Radio Frequency Village is an annual event held at DEF CON in the fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. Talks may be live, or pre-recorded at the discretion of the presenter. This year we return to the Las Vegas Convention Center. Due to challenges inherent to this environment, we *encourage* ALL presenters to pre-record and submit their talks to us. The acoustics in the new location are likely to be unfavorable, and pre-recording your talk is the best way to ensure folks can clearly hear your message. We will attempt to record live talks, but quality may vary and will certainly be less than ideal. Presentation topics are up to the discretion of the submitter, but you can see what we accepted previously here: https://www.youtube.com/c/RFHackersSanctuary/videos We like things that are security related, and obviously things which are wireless, impress us. ============== # README.TXT # ============== Please note the following before submitting to the CFP: -We can't and won't sponsor any visas. -We do not offer compensation for any speaking slot. -All presentations must be in English. -Not every talk is expected to be expert level content being presented by an expert speaker. -Content at all levels will be accepted, and even obviously first time speakers will be seriously considered. -We have no intention of gate keeping or censoring, if you have a cool idea, submit it. -Please submit only if you are already planning to attend DEF CON. If you wait till after our CFP notifications to decide, it will be very short notice. ================= # Check your work # ================= Please ensure all of the following fields have been properly filled out. Failure to do so may result in a random changing of your abstract, bio, or other published information for our own amusement. We are all here to have fun, and we have lots of it. The first email address is for auto-confirmation of submission. If you don't get a confirmation you should check your spam, or you entered your email address wrong, or we didn't receive your submission.
