Sneaky way to claim credit for doing no work.
Noticed the following result status:

Result Name OS type OS version App Version Number Status Sent Time Time Due /
Return Time CPU Time / Elapsed Time (hours) Claimed/ Granted BOINC Credit

HST1_ 008279_ 000082_ MC0019_ T325_ F00074_ S00012_ 2-- Microsoft Windows 10 Professional x64 Edition, (10.00.14393.00) - In Progress 10/18/16 11:10:53 10/28/16 11:10:53 0.00 0.0 / 0.0

HST1_ 008279_ 000082_ MC0019_ T325_ F00074_ S00012_ 1-- Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Edition, Service Pack 1, (06.01.7601.00) 726 Pending Validation 10/18/16 11:03:37 10/19/16 15:24:29 10.40 422.3 / 0.0

HST1_ 008279_ 000082_ MC0019_ T325_ F00074_ S00012_ 0-- Microsoft Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 Edition, (06.03.9600.00) 726 Error 10/18/16 11:03:37 10/18/16 11:10:51 0.00 233.1 / 0.0

Basically the last one on the list that resulted in an error claimed 233.1 credit for doing no work in a span of 7 minutes.

Check later to see what the actual credit may be. I've seen boinc tasks with errors claim credit but receive none.

Nope, the sneaky wingman did not earn credit. Both I and the other wingman did.
