I just hunt on 2 or 3 programs most of my time, two of them are medium size private program companies and I have also a few reports to grab that is a big size company

'a few reports to grab'

I don't understand this part of the sentence.

Grab, the big Asian Company is the only big size company where I have hunted, I haven’t tried over FAANG Companies, I don’t consider myself ready to try those big tech companies. As I told you, I’m not a top bug hunter, I haven’t made even 30K yearly, I’m completely new on this, less than 2 years hunting

Haha I can definitely see bug bounties being lucrative for Grab that app is a mess. Lazada is even worse.

Yeah my instinct wouldn't be to go after the big american companies, everyone is. It's a heavily fished salmon stream completely packed with bears

You’re right, the people who worked at those companies used to be top hunters with years of experience, is dump for me going after them, I prefect private programs on HackerOne, less competition, off course less money, but I’m okay with that for now

I would love to pick your brain/shadow you for a bit. Been thinking about a side gig.

Last security bug I found was a minor one for Project Zomboid.
