Train ticket scalpers upgrade their technology: 2G broadband + exhaustive verification code

Train ticket scalpers upgrade their technology: 2G broadband + exhaustive verification code
Today, you can buy train tickets for the last day of the Spring Festival holiday (February 2), and the 12306 ticket grab has reached the final stage of white-hot competition. After the real-name system for train tickets was implemented, the "scalpers" who moved from the train station square to the Internet were not idle either. In the confrontation with 12306, the "ticket scalping" scalpers' skills are constantly improving. In the ticket scalping QQ group, the scalpers sent passengers a form, and the information that needs to be filled in includes: 12306 verification mobile phone number, 12306 password, passenger, date of travel, departure and arrival stations, seat type, and contact number. It is also OK if you do not provide 12306 account information, but you need to provide real ID information. A salesman who undertakes the ticket-swiping business said: "We also use the same software to grab tickets, but we are equipped with 2000M network broadband, so our chances of grabbing tickets are much greater than those of ordinary individuals (100M broadband) ." A network engineer revealed, "You use one computer to swipe tickets, while professional ticket-swiping scalpers may use dozens of computers at the same time. You open one or several programs to swipe tickets at the same time, while they may open hundreds or even thousands of programs at the same time, and the frequency of ticket swiping can reach milliseconds. If your probability of successfully swiping tickets is 0.1%, then they can reach 10% or even higher." He also said that although the 12306 website uses verification codes to curb "scalpers", the number of verification codes is not unlimited. "You can get all the verification codes of 12306 by requesting tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of times. " Scalpers first convert images into digital sequences, then classify some words, and then correspond to the meaning of the images, so that a matching probability of 70% to 80% can be achieved.
