What would you do with 10,000 SIM cards?

[187]

Greetings,

Hypothetically speaking, let's say a friend of mine has 10K SIM cards registered in my country, obtained legally.

His idea is that via those cards we'll register accounts in Azure, AWS, Google, etc. and create virtual machines from the trial credits.
He wants to mine Monero on these machines and his precalculated profit is around 750,000 EUR. Not a small amount of money, huh?

So, I came to Cracked to ask 2 questions:
  First, what would you do with those 10K SIMs?
  Second, do you think that the Monero thing will work? Has anyone tried it?

Keep in mind this is a serious thread and every retarded reply will be kindly ignored.

Have a nice day,
With from N1ghth2wk.

That is a smart idea, indeed.
but don't you think the virtual machines will have some problem or simply does not allow mining?
If not, I don't see any reason why this shouldn't work.
Good luck to you sir

We tried it with one machine, made everything extra obvious. Files were named “mining”, etc. And successfully mined 0,25€, now when we do maths: 0,25€ per machine * 10 virtual machine providers * 10,000 SIMs * 30 days of mining (that’s our end goal) = 750,000€.

Thing is, still haven’t tried how consistent this is. I was looking for someone more knowledgeable in this area.
