Another blog update from john. Message, diary entry and a strange soviet era medal. Part of the message is QR code. I am busy with other things for most of the day so if someone could take a look and tell me what they find would be most appreciated.

The person who contacted me about the ES never claimed to be a hacker for the Kitsune, so I can only assume that he was sposed to be an official rep.

Edit: Managed to get 5 to look at this. Have partially decoded the QR code, tho because the program I have is only a demo I don't appear to be able to get the extension only this;

as for the medal and the 'people' code, that will have to wait for the moment...

I've identified the medal as being this ;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Red_Banner_of_Labour

Now only the code left to crack...

QR decodes to http://soonwewillunleashourpowerupontheworld (doesn't go anywhere)

The "http://" may be something the decode program adds, I dunno. I used barcapture.exe.

No google hits for that string (without spaces).

The rest looks like some special font maybe. Oh and way to zoom in reeeal close on that medal for us John (NOT) Rolling Eyes I'll try and do something with them at work.

John's photo filenames are mead-001.jpg, mead-007.jpg and aaa111.jpg, FWIW.

Already know what the medal is, though the only other relevance could be if the text on the back relates to who it was awarded to. I think you are right about the people being some kind of font. Completely forgot about the Cando thing, thanks for linking that.

I might consider NOT filling out the survey, considering I got that phonecall, and see what happens? What do you think?

A lots happened Doug, just read back thru and ask any questions and i'll try my best to fill you in on any specific details.

Hoj, might be a good idea since you're the only one who the Kitsune have contacted so far, personally I will be playing the role of double agent...

Sounds good, we'll see how it goes. I just won't reply then, and hopefully I might get another phone call...

You don't, not until they email it to you. You have to go to the ES website (http://humanenlightenmentproject.mfbiz.com/) and submit your details under "contact us", you will then receive another email asking for more details, maybe a phone call after that, then you get the membership form...

I just got the pre-membership e-mail, repling to it now. Do I need to give them my home address and other stuff like that?

Up to you. If you're not comfortable sharing that kind of info with strangers/PMs, I'd say you don't have to.
