When that ran out, he lived off credit cards, following a rigid system for applying for and transferring debt to 0% introductory-rate cards. Friends would ask what he was doing.

First, the company had hired him to come up with a system to spam all MySpace users. He then created 27,000 fake users, and proceeded to spam all of them (it's not clear why). Following this, he asked the company to be hired permanently, or said he'd reveal to the world how to spam MySpace users.")
