These are all valid concerns, ones i had when pessoi.net first popped up.


At this point the only thing we can do is follow the directions and look for the evidence pessoi.net is asking for. Since alice has not contacted us in a while this is all we got to go on.

I don't think anyone nefarious is behind pessoi.net, cause most of that evidence they would already have, and having us upload it wouldn't get rid of it cause we'd still have it ya know?

As far as them not working together, it's a case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing...but they are still part of the same cause(taking down identicryption)...at least it seems that way for now.

The song lyrics may or may not be a clue, but regardless we always get an extra push in the right direction when things come to a standstill. I'm sure we'll get another riddle or two to help us crack the Intranet login, cause right now at least, I got nothing lol.

I have thought about that too. We don't know who Alice is except that Alice is not his/her real name and Alice's Aftermath08 profile lists him as a male. I guess we will find out soon enough! I am fully stumped on the lyrics too. I have no idea how to get a password out of that. I will stare at it some more and keep trying to figure it out but I hope one of you gets further than I seem to be.

Good job following up on that clue and getting the pass Glyni.

I went ahead and sent the resulting information to palamedes through his email at pessoi.net. I'm hoping this will turn up further leads.

Okay page 39 and 40 up at Alice's Evidence. The missing persons reports are for the same people you get when you log into the intranet.

The file has some binary garbage in it, but at first glance it looks like it's there largely just to make it look like a binary file. My best guess is that it's supposed to look like a program that either spies on a person or validates a persons identity. I can guarantee you that it's not a valid program, however, on any system.

I'm looking at the binary garbage and I find it doubtful that there's anything meaningful in here. I'll transcode it into things that can be seen in this forum if someone requests.

I am guessing that we're supposed to take meaning from the textual part of it, which seem to mostly be composed of a list of pieces of information that are being gathered. There are a few tantalizing other bits, though I can't decide if they have any meaning or are just attempts to look like programming gobbledygook. Summarized:

name
address
phone
creditcard
driverslicense
school
college
work
pps
paye
ssia
photo

Does anyone know what pps, paye, or ssia are?

So the whole plan was to trick people into downloading adoptable space monkeys so that they could embed malware to gather personal info and commit identity theft?

And now they are killing people off who helped write the space monkey program?

Wow this is some hard core ID theft for people who's target audience would be tweens who have time to adopt a space monkey. Oh no now they have the code to access the hammer to smash little Jenny's piggy bank! OMG!!!!!!

I assume you're being sarcastic, but for clarification anyway, I don't believe that it was supposed to work against us, but to be evidence that it has been used against [insert IG character(s) here]
