 		Email sent.

Has anyone else been following the tweets between or 3 guys? Fairly interesting, and I'm sure it'd be better if I could figure out how to view them all together.
I'll have to work on that later when I'm not at work.

Latest tweet by NH tho - says:
Quote:
NIRAMOIL @theendtimer @isomergrenade


It doesn't appear to be referencing any tweets from the other 2 - and it's definitely a strange word. No hits from google on it, but haven't had time to do any more with it either.

=edit= March 23rd
I sorted out the Tweets between our 3 targets in case anyone is interested.

FROM: THE COOPERATIVE FOR CONCERNED CITIZENS FOR PRIVACY
ATTENTION: WOLFPACK RECRUIT

We regret this intrusion into your communications but your actions have left us with no other choice.

We are the Cooperative of Concerned Citizens for Privacy. Our mission is to protect citizens from the watchful eyes of the state and its puppets. Citizens like Nathaniel Houston. Citizens like yourself.

Nathaniel Houston – otherwise known to you as PEAK OIL – has committed no crime other than to express his views that differ from those of the industrial military complex. Yet he has been subject to surveillance, and we believe threat, by a Private Military Contractor that is operating in violation of Posse Comitatus on American Soil.

You have been aiding and abetting them. We strongly believe further actions on your part will lead to Nathaniel's harm.

Do not worry. We are not the government and will not report you to law enforcement - if for no other reason than we believe the so-called "authorities" to be in league with The Wolfpack.

Government is founded on the belief that the common man cannot be trusted to take care of himself. That is founded on a belief that man is inherently self-interested and will not rally to a common cause without coercion. We have a much higher regard for human nature, and it is why we appeal now to your better angel.

We have hacked wolfpackpmc.com and disrupted their communications. We hope that this has bought Nathaniel - and you - some time.

When the Wolfpack regains control of their website, you will be asked by The Wolfpack to locate the whereabouts of Nathaniel Houston. If you were ignorant of the consequences of his apprehension by The Wolfpack before, you cannot claim ignorance as a defense any longer.

We also ask that you find Nathaniel's location, but that you MUST inform us first. We will then move him to a safe house where he can be protected.

While we would hope that an appeal to your humanity, we also understand that you were raised in an acquisitive, consumerist society. We know that the Wolfpack is offering you a "prize" as well as the possibility of employment.

Just as we were able to ascertain your identity, we were also able to obtain the "score" that the Wolfpack has been keeping from you in their "game". To put it bluntly, we are prepared to match Wolfpack's offer if you can provide us with Nathaniel's location first, and in time for us to conduct a rescue mission.

In order to do this, you must not inform The Wolfpack of your contact with us. You will soon be handed information concerning his whereabouts. Provide us with Nathaniel's whereabouts instead of The Wolfpack and you will be both rewarded and protected. If you decide to Inform on us to The Wolfpack and/or give them his location... and if Nathaniel's well being or the offer of a prize is not enough incentive... well, just take a look at what we did to The Wolfpack's site.

You may only send ONE e-mail to us with the correct location. The more contact we have the more chance we will both risk detection.

We hope you make the right decision, Comrade. The Strength of Society is NOT "The Pack". It is the CONCERNED CITIZEN.

 		CCCP
I found out the location, but I am hesitating before sending in my answer. Should we send it to WOlfpack or CCCP? After all, the hack of the wolfpack pmc website is in red and yellow, and CCCP is the name for the old Soviet Union.

Plot to make the US Communist? Thawing out the Cold War? Nuclear armageddon?

It doesn't fit in with anything we've seen so far (except for the isomer grenade), but I still want to tak emy chances and wait until we get that other e-mail from PMC.

Whaddya think?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
By the way, the location of Nathaniel Houston is 7555 de Longpre Avenue, Los Angeles, California as found through the link he posted on his twitter tonight, a google map coordinate, and by clicking on street view (we see the adress very clearly)

 		Hahaha, coupled with that fact that at the end they say 'Comrade' (which I found funny because my email is comrade.<my>@gmail.com) that's an obvious allusion to the Soviet Union.

I say we should tell WolfPack. They're the one offering a prize!

I'm not so sure that's the right address. Why would he tell us that we'll never find him, and then post his location. Plus, his tweet with the coordinates says "let's see how smart you all are", which says to me there's something to figure out there. And one last point - not that it is anything accurate - but the profile on his blog indicates he's in Minneapolis, MN. I think that's probably a better place to start.

The question is - what? I'll start digging a little deeper once I get a chance later today, work is keeping me pretty busy. Rolling Eyes

 		New email!
Quote:
ATTENTION: TIP TRAINEES

CC: OSIG OPERATIVES, OSIG SUPERVISORS, INTERNAL SECURITY ENFORCERS


MISSION 3


Attention all Wolfpack trainees. Before you are given your third and final assignment, you need to be aware of a security breach.


As you may have noticed, our site was hacked and defaced, and much of our data was stolen. We BELIEVE it to be, in part, an inside job. But we KNOW that the subversive organization known as CCCP has made contact with you.


Do not believe any information you receive from CCCP or its members – including Nathaniel Houston. The CCCP claims to be "Concerned Citizens for Privacy", yet they have already violated YOUR privacy.


Through your intelligence gathering in the previous missions, we have determined that Mr. Houston, AKA Peak Oil, has both the motive and the means to carry out a threat against our client. While we have stepped up security for our the client, they maintains facilities internationally, stretching our resources - and theirs - severely.


At some point during your intelligence gathering Nathaniel Houston became aware that he was being watched and started a flurry of international travel. At first, we believed that he was seeking refuge with the CCCP. We now believe he is headed somewhere to attack our client.


We therefore need to our OSIG operatives, including TIP trainees, to locate Mr. Houston so that we can neutralize him as a threat. We will of course work within the legal boundaries of whatever nation he is apprehended in.



The image attached to this email is the only clue we have to his location.


Again, please submit his current location to us via e-mail by 11:59 PM Pacific Time Friday March 27th to this email. If Nathaniel Houston is not apprehended before then, at the very least, the expense of our enhanced security will force our client to suspend operations. Forced to rely on public security, we believe they will be vulnerable to attack, and by extension the global economy will be put at serious risk.


But where there is crisis, there is also opportunity. The greatest opportunity of them all – consideration for a top position within The Wolfpack.


Do not be lured away by the false ideals of radicalism. Do not fail. The Strength of the Wolf is The Pack!


It has an attachment as well, which is the 'only clue' to his location. Stegstegsteg? Or is the background an actual location?

I don't remember everything from the LinkedIn site orginally - but this obviously sticks out like a sore thumb now:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I haven't had any luck with de-stegging the pic, but I'm not very good with it either. Someone else should probably try to double-check.

I tried iSteg on it but it sent back an error, but that just might be the program screwing up.

 		This is my first arg, so I'm unfamiliar with destegging, but I tried SpySteg (or StegSpy?) on it and it came back clean.

There has to be a link with that google map coordinate that appeared on twitter.

Also, still debating who we should send the info to. EndTimer is associated with Wolfpack, and PeakOil is already working for CCCP, so they should know where he is...

 		I'm now eating crow for my earlier comment about the first 2 missions being easy... This one's stumping me something good.

Really, I don't think destegging the pic will do us any good. That really hasn't been their(Wolfpack) style in having us gather info. Has anyone found any connection with the word NIRAMOIL that was left on N.H.'s twitter account? I haven't been able to find anything on it, but I think he left us that for a reason. Too, has anyone noticed that the google link is gone? When I tried to locate what those coordinates were I got a location in NC... but now w/ the link gone I'm not sure about that either. Did anyone keep those coordinates? I'll keep wracking my brain...
About who we should send our email to - while T.V. is an associatte of Wolfpack, it's pretty evident where his loyalties are and N.H. was already a member of CCCP, so I'm inclined to send my email about Nathaniel to them. The atheist in me says not to follow "the pack"...

@dirtdiver - what did you notice that was different about his linkedin? I took some notes about that page before the first mission & everything still looks the same. I'm not sure what you're referring to.

=EDIT=
I reread our mission email & realized we only have until this Friday! Shocked
We better get going...

 		@jki6783 - Just put "7555 de Longpre Ave, Los Angeles" into google maps. These are the coordinates, although I'm not sure what to do with them...

Also, since I'm from Canada, I'm not in the drawing either. I'm willing to try sending the info to Wolfpack Twisted Evil
