Probably some kind of gift code, or other stuff that can be done through a smartphone and isn't easily tracked. Definitely big city before small town. Preferably one of those where police is struggling to even handle the violent crime and ordinary shoplifting is considered a nothingburger...

I'll give you a better one, pretty obvious too. Ransomware attacks, coming to your mall parking lot. Except its your car that won't start until you pay up a a couple hundred bucks or so. Sure, you can call a mechanic or towing, but its going to cost more than paying off the criminal and take way...

It may end up similar to the most widespread malware ecosystems. Hackers won't hack cars. Hackers will write software that hacks cars, and then sell it to thieves, burglars, street gangs and carjackers.

How polite of them to publicly justify their designation as terrorists just in the right moment.

That seems less like a trap and more like idiot getting bored looking at a fire and deciding to try put out the fire by sitting on it. Maybye they will get away with it, but its also possible that the weird smell is burning pants. So instead of officially starting to do it with more people and...
