I used to do contract work for a local bank at their administrative offices. People had no idea who I was, but they'd still give up their password if asked directly. One girl in marketing, we flirted with her so much she ended up giving us t-shirts and mugs.

You'd hope it wasn't that easy to get passwords, but it just really is.

The research revealed that 45 percent of women and 10 percent of men would disclose their password as part of a survey with the promise of receiving a chocolate bar, Infosecurity Europe reports.

Makes you wonder what it would take to increase those numbers a little bit.

Guinness. The chocolate bar is more likely to appeal to women. Now see, if I was a guy, everybody would holler sexist, and I admit it may be. On the other hand, it's true. I'd try Guinness, or whatever seemed popular and on the expensive side in the region.

This has been done a few times and reported. In one instance they got a CEO's password for a pen. I can walk into pretty much any plant and get the password for the entire process system.

I'll give you my password.

Where is my chocolate?

You send it first. I promise I'll send you a password.

Kind of an update on Wimpy...

Old: "I shall gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."
New: "I shall gladly give you my password Tuesday for a chocolate bar today."
