Actually I have hired a strip-o-gram in the past to gain access to a secured site during a pentest. I arrived at the site with the stripper and told the guard we were there to give an employee (whose name we had gained from the website) a Strip-o-gram. The security guard gladly buzzed us in through the mantrap, signed us in and took us into the data center. While all the staff were busy watching the show I was grabbing password files and installing software. This isn't as rare as you might think. Now let's take this thread in its logical direction: Sexy pen-testers on meth.

How many pen testers will hire an escort to social engineer a client. How do you get permission for that? Not meaning to get flamed here, just stating the obvious.
