Title: UTAH resident hacks the WY Game and Fish Application system.
Post by: Gringo31 on January 16, 2018, 09:11:24 AM
NEWS ALERT: UTAH resident hacks the WY Game and Fish Application system. Applies for a sheep tag 99 times in less than one minute. Gathers up nearly 24 preference points in one year!!! This company also builds the software that many of the big application services use to apply their clients. Maybe you didn't have a fair shot at that coveted tag the past few years that you thought you did??? -G

From the WYOMING BUSINESS REPORT..."At a glance
A Utah man was charged in Laramie County District Court last week after allegedly tampering with the Wyoming Game and Fish computer system to get two moose licenses and nearly two-dozen preference points for hunting tags in one year."

"GotMyTag LLC" How appropriately named. The news out of the hunting community sinks to a new low. Hope he gets jail time with no access to a pc!  :yike:

Wow, I have the pointhunter app, but have never used any of their other services. Doesn’t he post on the forum occasionally?

Not to my knowledge. To be honest I hope he is reading this as we type and realizes what his "customers" think of him now.

His ban is being discussed.  I’m glad he isn’t a sponsor here.

I bought his app a few years ago... hopefully the info I entered into the app doesn’t show up anywhere...

What a tool...

Makes me wonder for those who might have provided info to his service...was he removing/modifying your apps...thereby increasing his chances? 

With the value of some of these western tags getting into the 6 figures I sure hope states are being diligent in administering the draws...the incentive to cheat is there.

WOW, Wow and wow.

Byron had launched his business at a good time and still has decent market share so I'm perplexed why he'd cheat.

Man I wish I had the smarts to trick the system and draw tags every year, but not get caught!   :chuckle: I think Wyoming should draw my elk tag for me this year, then they’ll be forgiven!

He got caught and didn't get a tag this time. How many times has he done this before?
