Welcome to the forum

Please post your code here in code tags so that it does not have to be downloaded

  • Where did you get the code from as I assume that you did not write it
  • What baud rate do you have the Serial monitor set to ?
  • What is the code supposed to do ?
  • Where did you see the weird code ?
  • Which Arduino board are you using ?

Is your Serial Monitor set to the same bitrate as the program ?

Code is for tastic rfid thief
Arduino Nano v3.0 using the Arduino v1.0.1 software with the added sdfatlib (05Dec2011) library to handle the microSD card writing


After uploading code i did serial monitor to check if SD card was initialize and got some weird code
9600 baud

Can you read the code that you posted ?

You not only did not use code tags you copied the code from a Web page hence all the HTML color tags that make it impossible to copy the code for examination

Where did you get that version of the IDE from ? The IDE is now on version 1.8.19 of the classic IDE and there is also a release 2 version of a new IDE ?

You will get no help with that from me

Are you sure that your Nano has enough RAM to work with that all stuff?

This is what they want help with. >> Tastic RFID Thief: Silent, But Deadly | Bishop Fox

The Tastic RFID Thief is a long-range RFID reader that can steal the proximity badge information from an unsuspecting employee as they physically walk near this concealed device.

He wants to be a hacker, so he should be able to solve problems himself and not ask on a forum.
