lol @ the reason you need this ;-)

I did this once to attack a phishing scammer by getting a few thousand people to send in hundreds of fake names, passwords, E-mail addresses, etc. This is years old and hasn't been maintained even a little tiny bit since we succeeded in shutting the scammer down, but the app is still here: http://impsvillage.com/killscammer/

I threw that together in about an hour with PHP and cURL, as cURL has an option that allows you to specify an HTTP proxy to make its connection through. I just collected a list of free HTTP proxies, plugged them into a php array, and had it choose randomly which to use every time the page loaded.

There are cURL libraries for practically every language, so if you can find a good lib for Python, job done Otherwise, this was mad easy in PHP. Yell if you want the code and I'll dig it up.

Thanks for the reply and yes, I'm really evil.

I indeed found a cURL library for Python. It supports proxies. Thanks for the tip!

Where did you get your proxies from?

(Would be great to have a bot net by hand right now)

[Kyek]

I think mine came from proxy.org, funnily enough.

And I can't blame you too much... once upon a time, my girlfriend (now wife) entered her (now our) dog into a local cutest-dog-ever competition and we made it down to the final round. The guy we were up against was OBVIOUSLY botting his votes . . . so I spun up 20 EC2 nodes and gave them all cron jobs to vote every five minutes. :D

Bastard still won

You mentioned it aside of this thread at least 2-3 times, in node.js threads talking about the advantages of EC2 and in one thread where somebody wanted to fake votes as well ;D

Hi all.
I have learned half a dozen languages in past year through quick and dirty programming, and have visited about 30K coding-related web pages in the process. I registered to only 2 communities and that too was because it was absolutely necessary, in the last, coding packed year. wdR is the first website, EVAR, that I have registered to, at the first visit. And the above post has a lot to do with it.

I love it that the founder's reply wasn't " Please do not use this forum for illegal purporr hurr durr ". Its always good to have admins we can relate to and admire.

I need to manipulate a voting by a few votes. Is there any way to use some sort of Proxy list and hit the URL through a different one each time?

I don't have the time and money to spin up EC2 instances.

I was looking for the same and found it here. Tested it, it works.

I just love wdR because of all the awesome members (with some exceptions)

There's a module my friend made for SOCKS5 proxies, don't know if he released it.

If it's what you're looking for, just say and I'll root it out

[callumacrae]

I suspect that the voting has ended by now

Hire a botnet and make them hit the address (jk, i'm not recommending this).
