In my personal experiences the use of social engineering was rare for me. I would not use it very often unless it was to run a scam on Microsoft to get free keyboards and mice :3. As for phishing, I never got into it because uploading a virus to a popular game or software was a much easier method to getting accounts of all varieties. To give you an exact percent I would have to say about 2% of my time was spent social engineering.

Keep the questions coming .
