So let's look for Daddy's information. Any ideas?


Where did you see that?
Her Daddy's name is Richard, right? We have an email...

 		For some reason I could see her facebook too... And that was under 'job descriptions.' I'll try to sneak on as Daddy-O.

Nope. Restricted.

 		On her facebook she has her occupation description saying that she answers her father's phone calls. So we can safely assume that the other summers at DecepTech is her father. I'd say Richard Summers in Center for Research and Development. Interesting that his "Account is currently restricted
by Corporate Security"...... And now she's gone......

Anyway, I do think i'll approach Gil/Gib as Ilsa. I'll let you all know how it goes!

EDIT: Started to type up a comment for Gil/Gib's blog, but I'm not too certain on posting it out in the open. Lol ever since a blog comment led to a main character getting kidnapped in another ARG I played in, I'm paranoid about it turning things for the worse... I'm just gonna pop him an email instead.

EDIT: OK, here's the email I sent off to Gil/Gib

Mr. Case,
My name is Ilsa Lund; I work Public Relations at DecepTech. It appears we have a mutual friend, Ms Summers. I found you through her Facebook. I was wondering if you had heard anything more from her. I'm worried that she may have come down with something.

Also, I've read over your blog and find you to be rather interesting. Let me know if you need a good word for that interview. I have a way with the boys in HR. Wink I know it's a bit unprecedented to knowingly help the man who hacked your company's website get a job there, after you've seen clear proof of his acts. (In fact, I'm sure the company wouldn't be too happy to hear I'm talking to you. Hence, why I'm using my alias's email to contact you.) However, I can recognize talent that would be a wonderful addition to our team when I see it. So just let me know if you'd like a little inside help Wink

You can contact me here, or through any other site I am on under my alias of Amanda Muir. I see you have twitter and facebook. I can be found on twitter under wolfgirl86, and on facebook as Amanda Muir. You should be able to find me on Jennifer's friends list. I'd prefer it if you didn't contact me at my DecepTech email. Needless to say, security has had a stick up their butts since you hacked the site. Best not to test the fates, no?

I hope to hear back from you soon. If you see jennifer, tell her I say hello.

"Amanda"



Lol I feel like a spy *sneaks around to the James Bond theme*

 		Did Jennifer have a summer job At Deceptech? As jelloarm pointed out, using Jennifer Summers on the log-in box shows:

Account is currently restricted
by Corporate Security

instead of "invalid" for a name it doesn't recognize.

Could this be how she got in trouble? and whom Case was trying to visit at work?

 		I would assume that whatever has her missing and her account blocked is the same thing blocking her father's account. The summers family seems to be in trouble...

Just sayin'.

 		Got a response from Gil/Gib!

Gil/Gib wrote:
Well I barely knew her, but she did seem nice. I stopped by there to check the status of my employment application and she wasn't there. Thougth she was sick or possibly traveling with her father.

I have been told that Mr. Summers was the person who would make the decision regarding my employment, but they tell me he's out of town. Is there any way he can be contacted to check the status? Do you know the status?

And your company does have an odd way of doing things. I know I might have overstepped my bounds in the past, but that was a long time ago. Water under the bridge, I hope. Won't happen again.

Look forward to hearing from you soon.


OK, so..... hmmm.............. What the hell am I supposed to/ going to tell him? I suppose I could actually try emailing the Deceptech people as Ilsa. I mean, they DID email my email, so technically, it should work right?

Let's try! Worst case scenario they ask who I am and I duck away or something...... But that wouldn't make sense with the fact that they sent me corporate emails. So I believe I can safely assume that it will work.

 		Jennifer just accepted my Friend request on Facebook.

And the creepy cyborg speak continues:

Quote:
You are hereby authorized. We can be friends now.

Please tell me more about yourself so I can be friendlier.


I haven't written anything back yet. Just wanted to pass this along. Again, there's no way this is an 18-year old girl. Someone's watching that account.

Hmm...do you think it could be an A.I.? Maybe it sounds computerized for a reason...

Also, there is quite a bit more information available on her FB page now, too. Photos, an email address (pompomgrrlSPLATgmail.com), and quite a few status updates talking about her "daddy" (Richard) leaving town again.

According to one of her status updates, it looks like Richard left town on 3/2 and she went missing a few days later according the flyer a few of us got.

Finally, she has one friend who has commented on a photo:
Jason Lau
I've requested him as a Friend, so we'll see what happens.

Oh, and her status now reads:
Quote:
Jennifer Summers is looking for more information to increase her circle of friends and know them much, much better


So we're all going to be investigated, obviously. Deceptech is going to know all about us soon enough, I'm sure. Just an FYI Smile

 		OMG!!!! *hypervetilates* I'M IN!

OK, here's the stuff from before on FB.

"Jennifer" wrote:
Please provide additional information on the status of our friendship so I may set your status accordingly. I must know more about your intentions.


[qoute="VaWood"]My name is Ilsa Lund. I work in Public Relations at DecepTech. This is simply an alias that I use so that only select people will be able to contact me through this site. I was just popping on to see how you are feeling. I noticed that your bright smile hasn't been at the front of the building to greet me in the past few days. When i saw you here on Facebook, I thought it would be a good idea to pop in and see if you were alright or needed anything.[/quote]

Here's the responses:
"Jennifer" wrote:
Ilsa, stop playing around. You know who this is. Don't get in the way and let me do my job, OK?

and then
"Jennifer" wrote:
Approved. Monitor the others and report back to me. Sublevel B, Office 201.



Layton is Network Security, in Sublevel B. Think it's her?

Either way, everyone seems to be going along with me being Ilsa. So now I'm rethinking my email to look into Gil/Gib's job. What if they think I'm asking too many questions?

 		I got my badge. Worshippy Rock On Seems I'm Jason Bourne. I was actually kinda hoping for Alex DeLarge Very Happy , but I am sooooo stoked.

Jason's mail is... interesting. Is this the first 'Archived' mail?

 		New post on Gibson's blog, "Huh?". Link.

Seems that he's getting the same "Please provide additional information on the status of our friendship..." response on Facebook.

Finally, someone with my muse gets a badge! Sweet!
Yeah, it is the first mail in Archived so far.

[Edit] Illegible spam huh? Perhaps someone should ask to see it? Could be encoded or something.

 		Inquired about it about an hour ago. Waiting for it to be approved. How's this sound?

To "Jennifer"

Smile Good afternoon, Jill. I just thought I'd have some fun with you while I could. It seemed like such a good opportunity, too. So, how is the investigation going? Anything new so far? And how am I doing keeping things quiet? I've put out some of my best work to keep the press away. I do like to think it's paid off.

Ilsa


And inquiring about the job to gain Gil/Gib's trust:

VaWood wrote:

Richard,

Good morning, Mr. Summers! Greetings from SWFL! I'm currently out of office visiting family. I'm just writing because I was contacted, by one of my many contacts Wink, and asked for me to inquire about a specific interview held on the 2nd. That of a Gilbert Caszinski. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind indulging me with a bit of insider info? I'll make it worth your while if you'd like Wink I'm sure you've heard of my escapades with clients. I promise I'll make it an enjoyable experience, give you the VIP treatment. Wink Wink

Let me know if you're interested.

Ilsa


EDIT: Haven't sent either of those yet. Do you think they're worded well enough? I'd like your opinions before setting it in stone and hitting the send button.


EDIT: My comment was approved by Gil/Gib. Here's a copy of it. Still awaiting a response, but I figured I'd share it while I have the opportunity.

VaWood wrote:
Don't be too upset. I got the same message when I added her as a friend on Facebook. It seems like an automated response. Is that possible on Facebook?

Spam is horrible, I agree. I love the "increase your size" types. Given I'm not a male, it's quite humorous. What kind your inbox being filled with? Cheap pills from Canada? Princes in Nigeria? LOL

Looking into our earlier conversation. I'll email you when I know more. Make sure I don't go to the spam box Wink

"Amanda"

Not sure about the use of emoticons in the one to Richard, but otherwise it looks good to me.

 		Using my public twitter account I sent Gibson a tweet. "@GibsonC A friend of mine in IT of a known computer co. said you do good work. he recommended you. So what is 'Hack the planet?'"
The response should be interesting at least.

Yeah lol I didn't notice just how many winks I'd put in until UF converted them to smilies *hides* They've been dealt with. I was trying to act coy, but writing in intervals around playing DDR doesn't work too well lol

Alright, sending them off then, I guess...

First, though, do you think I should mention my contact with Gil'Gib to Jill? Kinda do a double/triple agent thing? I think I'll hold off on deciding that until I hear back form her. THoughts?
