 		Emails and contact from Characters
Quote:
You may have noticed the workpad site has been deactivated....
I guess I could make a new one, but they would just shut that down too.

Currently I am in transit and using a ciber-Cafe as my means to
contact. My cleaning lady was able to retrieve the flasH drive,
however I was forced to abandon my orIginal laptop the other night. I
Cannot risk opening in or on A public computer. So I will do more
digGing when I arrive at my destination. Of which I have included for
you in this cOmmunication.

Many of my personal accounts are being closed or cancelled..
bankcards, cell phone service etc.....This is growing bigger by the
day. I am going to try to get Logins and Passwords to the Complex's
Net site. Hopefully then we can find out more details.

I am hoping to find jerry..... He knows some inside information
judging from his emails last month...
If you trust me.... send me a contact number where we can talk...

 		Man... why doesn't he send me any emails? I was probably the first to ever contact him, email or IM. I don't even get to talk to him as Jerry. =(

[edit] Nevermind! I got the same thing. Awesome.

 		I'm scared to send my phone number. I'm not good at talking to humans.

 		My first contact ever!

I asked him about complex... this is what i got..

i would give him my phone number but i doubt he would dial international!
anyway, i guess we won´t go very far unless someone speaks to him...

Complex is the financial institution I was once employeed by and
someone connected with them is setting me up for the half billion
missing $$$.

Are you working on the photo code?
I am still traveling to another location, so I haven't had time to
look at the flash drive.

Do you have a number you can be reached at?


thanks;
walter

 		Ok i was justing getting into bed when I got my first in game call!!!!!

Walter kept repeating the line "Seperate strings message"

Well i think thats what he said, I was so impressed that they had contacted out of America that all the questions I wanted to ask completely left my mind!!! Shocked and the fact that he could not talk long im guessing cos of being traced (OOG- because of the cost!). As I said i need sleep but will check in in the morning.

Russell unfic: We solved the puzzle.
hamilw: I received several emails.... thank you..
Russell unfic: What are you going to do now? It was good hearing from you.
hamilw: I am with an old friend who is putting me up, also a bit of a tech geek
hamilw: we are going through the flash drive...
Russell unfic: Anything interesting so far?
hamilw: seems I was able to get more than I thought.....
Russell unfic: Thats great news.
hamilw: MAny files are encrypted multiple formats will eed help I think to open all up
hamilw: I think I got something that is very important to the complex or damaging
Russell unfic: ok, can you pass it on? What is it?
hamilw: I will pass on once we can open the file....not sure how to get out to all of you?
Russell unfic: If you pass it to me I can distribute it as I did with your help last night....
hamilw: ok... I could also contact you by phone?
Russell unfic: Yep that would be fine too
hamilw: Seems that Patig was inside the account and is also on the board....
hamilw: something just isn't right
Russell unfic: We noticed, we also found a picture so at least we know our enemy
hamilw: I actually meet him 3 years ago....
hamilw: ok.. need to rest, it was a long night
Russell unfic: before you go, how can i contact jerry?
hamilw: have you heard fromhim?
Russell unfic: you know he has been trying to get hold of you..??
hamilw: I know he made it out of switzerland... but I a not sure if he is stateside
Russell unfic: not me, but others have spoken to him
hamilw: he is at risk like me..... possibly more
Russell unfic: He is aware and is trying to get to a safe place as we speak
hamilw: do you know of a "branchmanager" user id?
Russell unfic: I have been looking for it but it is not an AIM handle and i cant get MSN to work..
hamilw: ok... need to rst....
hamilw signed off at 5:16:28 PM.


A few mistakes in there giving "MAnem" but i think its just typing error.

Looks like locating this ID is the next step. I have now got MSN working and its not in there. Not ICQ either...

 		I just got a new email from Walter:

Quote:
I reached my destination safely late last night.
My acquaintance here has put me up and is providing some support. We
are going through the flash drive to find more information.

From the information gathered so far I can see a connection between
the schmidt bank and Patig.
I was given (forced) into taking this account by one of the chief
financial forecasters at the complex. I am finding several
transactions that appear to be connected to me and the 500 million.
Although I did not actually initiate these transactions, they appear
to mine.

The only way to clear my name will be to access the financial complex
net and find some evidence of the setup. Otherwise I will be the fall
guy.

I will try to get you the encrypted complex access files.

WH


It doesn't appear to give any new information or puzzles, but it looks like we are on the right path. I guess we'll get more info soon.

 		I got 2 new emails,

I have been working through the afternoon. I was able to contact jerry
and things are moving along. He is on his way to meet me tomorrow.

We agree that the only way to bring this to a close is by accessing
the complex financial net. I am attaching a file we were able to clean
up from the flash drive, but the contents are encrypted. I am hoping
it contains complex information we can use.

I appreciate all your help....
