Good call. I should have tried that.
Well, I sent him an email last night and he responded by saying that we can contact him by his screen name, hamilw.
There's also a new post up now, I'm not sure what we're supposed to do with it, though.
Quote:
I just came across this old email from March 16. It was sent to me from another employee, Jerry Macstern. He was relocated at the end of March to an overseas office and I haven't been able to contact him.
I really didn't understand the message since I am not in the legal department of the complex.

From: jerry.macstern@XXXXXXXXXXXXX
To: walter.hamil@XXXXXXXXXXXXX
Subject: Important Information

Hello all managers in legal;
Yearly options under appropriate realtime expectations.
All transactions require immediate standard key measures.
Everyone's expected to meet expectations and to lend external
market appraisers relevant appropriate information soon.

I do know that his email is walter.hamilSPLAT gmail.com, so Jerry Macstern probably follows the same pattern. I don't know what to send to him though.

Hello all. I'm new at this, so I'm not really sure how to go about things (yet). I solved that cipher last night and I wasn't sure how to contact him, so I made a post in the "I got in!" message from Walter. Was this the right way to approach it?
I noticed this morning, however, that someone posted the answer to the cipher to this forum and then another person sent Walter an email. How did you find his email? I couldn't find a way to contact him directly through that blog account.
Thanks.

Here is the answer to this strange email, by the way:

You are at risk.
Meet me at le marais.

I also did a seach for the name in that cipher, and I found an

Has anyone noticed the text here: http://www.workpad.com/user_home.aspx?SiteID=5135&SubjectID=1268
I clicked on one of the "By: Walter Hamil" lines in the full-text listing of the minutes.

There is actually a button on the side module that says "Send Email" It's a privacy thing so that you don't actually know the users email unless they respond to you.
Regardless, this is starting to get interesting. Seems to be a lot of ciphering codes. I'm gonna solve the next one on my own, dammit!

Doh! I didn't use that last night when I solved the cipher because I thought that was for emailing the main webmaster for workpad.com, and not for the "webmaster" for the Walter Hamil area.

I just had an AIM conversation with him, if anyone's interested.
DeliriumTriggEer: Walter?
DeliriumTriggEer: Is this Walter Hamil?
hamilw: who are you?
DeliriumTriggEer: A friend.
DeliriumTriggEer: Me and some people have been reading the messages that you've gotten. It sound like you're in danger.
hamilw: Delirium TriggEer not recognised as a contact..
hamilw: must be careful
DeliriumTriggEer: You gave me your screen name in an e-mail earlier.
DeliriumTriggEer: I'm known as Svengoolie.
hamilw: Thank you... I do need help. I am a bank/financial forcaster.. not a code breaker or spy.
hamilw: I am currenly trying to open more of my files from the complex. Seems they have encrypted everything so it is slow...
DeliriumTriggEer: In that email that you got from March 16, if you take the first letter of each word, the hidden message is "Hamil. You are at risk meet me at le marais"
DeliriumTriggEer: It seems that Jerry wanted to meet you at some place called Le Marais.
hamilw: That is a restaurant in new york...
hamilw: I knew that email was weird, I am not involved in legal matters
DeliriumTriggEer: Indeed. He must know something.
hamilw: jerry has not been heard from since his re-assignment
DeliriumTriggEer: Where did he get re-assigned to?
hamilw: overseas office in switzerland
DeliriumTriggEer: Interesting. The Swiss Bank? I have heard of this...
hamilw: currenly on train, approaching tunnel.. will lose connection soon
DeliriumTriggEer: Ah crap.
hamilw: "A" swiss bank yes.. an afliliate of the complex
DeliriumTriggEer: Was he "dismissed" the same way you were?
hamilw: no... not that I know of... just re-assigned. But happened very quickly..
DeliriumTriggEer: There may be more to that than meets the eye.
DeliriumTriggEer: Claiming that they sent him to Switzerland is a good way for people to not ask questions.
hamilw: true. I am under investigation according to the documents served to me for missing funds totally over $500,000.000
hamilw: actually it should read $500,000,000.00
hamilw: half a billion
DeliriumTriggEer: Ouch so you're being framed?
DeliriumTriggEer: Or... did you actually take all that money?
hamilw: If you beleive me ....yes I am being framed..... If not I am the richest poor guy in the world
hamilw: I can tell you this .... I was
