 		Going to take a WAG here and say the pw is a friend on one of spysect's social network sites... Possible? Would/could she see one of these? I've run through the screen names of people who have posted in the thread and got nothing. Haven't done email addys yet, so maybe that...

There's a comment from 'upstatephantom' on sharpsammi's LJ that says, "*waves* saw your lj. interesting. i work in victor, ny. small world, huh?" Only friend is sharpsammi, no blogs. kloo, nothing, or one of us?

If you want to mess with the vigenere there's a decoder here. Put the code into the box, set the dropdown for decrypt and put your attempt into the 'passphrase' box.

 		I'm upstatephantom, just to clear the air.

Also, if I was going to take a stab at what road she got hit on I would say it was Route 96 as it runs right along Eastview Mall.

Girl. Mall. Just a guess. Smile

 		I got that same e-mail, I let her know he was probably at work or not at a computer and offered to chat. She added me to MSN and we had this conversation:

Quote:
[11:09] Paul B: Hi there.
[11:10] Samantha: hey
[11:10] Samantha: Smile
[11:10] Paul B: How are you?
[11:10] Samantha: I'm doin ok
[11:10] Samantha: Don't know how long I can be here
[11:10] Paul B: Eddie told me what's been going on. I'm sorry to hear that you're in the situation you are.
[11:10] Samantha: Haven't had lunch yet and they shut off the CPU after lunch
[11:10] Paul B: Do they normally bring lunch to you at the same time every day?
[11:11] Samantha: Nope
[11:11] Samantha: I don't have any way to tell what time they bring it
[11:11] Samantha: No clocks
[11:11] Samantha: Computer clock is borked
[11:11] Paul B: That's no good. Well, I want to help you, so I have a few questions to ask before they bring you lunch if you don't mind.
[11:11] Samantha: Sure Smile
[11:11] Samantha: It's not like I WANT to be here...
[11:11] Paul B: On your Livejournal, I saw a picture in your profile of you and two friends. Who are the friends in your picture?
[11:12] Samantha: Um
[11:12] Samantha: whats it look like
[11:12] Samantha: I don't remember all specific pics
[11:12] Paul B: There's a guy with his arms around a girl wearing a black shirt that says "Skinny bitch" and I think that's you below them spreading your arms out.
[11:13] Samantha: oh
[11:13] Samantha: thats josh and rosie
[11:13] Samantha: Josh is her bf
[11:13] Paul B: are they good friends of your's?
[11:13] Samantha: yeah
[11:13] Samantha: oh u want emails dont u?
[11:13] Paul B: Do you think they might be able to help us? And do you think they would believe us if we told them what's going on?
[11:14] Samantha: Of course they wouldnt believe you
[11:14] Samantha: Who would
[11:14] Paul B: Well, if someone thinks their friend is in danger, you would be surprised at how much they would believe.
[11:14] Paul B: But I'll take your word for it.
[11:15] Paul B: How's your tummy?
[11:15] Samantha: well
[11:15] Samantha: it's fine now
[11:15] Samantha: But after lunch I go on the machine
[11:15] Samantha: So I guarantee that won't last
[11:16] Paul B: That's no good. We're going to do everything we can to get you out of there as soon as possible.
[11:16] Paul B: Hey, while I'm thinking about it, what's Bobby's last name?
[11:16] Samantha: Crap
[11:16] Samantha: Gimme a moment
[11:16] Samantha: I always forget
[11:17] Samantha: -_-
[11:17] Paul B: Is it Fisher?
[11:17] Samantha: No
[11:17] Samantha: He just loves bobby fisher or whtaever his last name is
[11:18] Samantha: hes a chess FANATIC
[11:18] Samantha: ohhh
[11:18] Samantha: Finch
[11:18] Paul B: Bobby Finch, okay. Smile
[11:18] Samantha: I knew it was a bird Wink
[11:19] Paul B: Someone may have already asked you this, but Mr. Breach sent us a code. The subject of the e-mail that he sent it in was "What's your friend's name again?"
[11:19] Paul B: Do you know what he means by that?
[11:19] Samantha: I think he's asking about your friend, not mine
[11:19] Samantha: Is what I said
[11:19] Samantha: But it's not like he knows who you guys are
[11:19] Samantha: And if he sent it out mass like im guessing
[11:19] Paul B: Right, which is weird.
[11:19] Samantha: its gotta be a mutual friend
[11:19] Paul B: I think he might be referring to either you or him.
[11:20] Samantha: Heh
[11:20] Samantha: I dunno
[11:20] Samantha: Maybe
[11:20] Samantha: They're opening the door
[11:20] Samantha: lunchtime
[11:20] Paul B: Uh oh.
[11:20] Samantha: sorry
[11:20] Paul B: Take care, be well.
[11:20] Samantha: bye
[11:20] Samantha: talk later


So, we know her boyfriend is not Bobby Fisher, but Bobby Finch. We also know that her friends in teh picture, which may or may not be important are Josh and Rosie, I didn't get their e-mail addresses though.

Has anyone e-mailed Bobby?

 		Sorry for double post, but since no one said they e-mailed Bobby, I went ahead and sent him a note:

Quote:
Hey Bobby,

How are ya? I heard about what happened to Samantha, her and I just met recently, but I wanted to check in with her after the accident to see how she's doing, but I'm having a hard time getting a hold of her, something seems weird. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and see how she's doing. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

-Paul

 		@Bubblebot>> Thanks for clearing that up.

Tried the email addys and got zilch. Feel free to double check me though because my brain is fried from work.

ETA: not (mr)breach, sammie, samantha, eddie...

Of course a ROT-9 takes care of that.

 		Good job Hikari and Rogi. I was heading down that path, but you beat me to it!

That said, looks like we're just waiting now for Breach to give us more info?

[15:08] Paul B: Okay.
[15:08] Paul B: Breach said that they are doing weird tests on you and that he is going to try to get more information to us as soon as possible.
[15:11] Samantha: omg
[15:11] Samantha: there werent any guards at the door
[15:11] Samantha: so i went down a hall
[15:11] Paul B: What did you find?
[15:11] Samantha: i was at the end of the hall
[15:11] Samantha: a guard
[15:11] Paul B: Did you see anything else?
[15:11] Samantha: who promptly hit me and put me back in the room
[15:12] Samantha: a DNA strand
[15:12] Paul B: Are you okay? Did he hit you hard?
[15:12] Paul B: We gotta get you out of there.
[15:12] Paul B: Did the DNA strand look any different than normal?
[15:13] Samantha: im okay
[15:13] Samantha: My face just hurts
[15:13] Samantha: the DNA was bluish
[15:13] Samantha: and a little lopsided
[15:13] Paul B: Any words around it?
[15:14] Paul B: Was it painted on a wall?
[15:14] Paul B: Sorry for all the questions, we're just trying to help.
[15:14] Samantha: It was a logo on a door
[15:14] Samantha: The words were blacked out
[15:14] Samantha: but there were words in the middle
[15:14] Paul B: Were those blacked out too?
[15:15] Samantha: Thpse were the ones that were blacked out
[15:15] Samantha: those were the only words
[15:15] Paul B: Ah, okay.
[15:15] Paul B: Was the guard wearing a uniform?
[15:15] Paul B: Did you see his face?
[15:15] Samantha: Yeah he wore a uniform
[15:15] Samantha: it was all black
[15:15] Paul B: Any badges, logos, or words anywhere?
[15:15] Samantha: well
[15:16] Samantha: It looked like there were military badges on the side
[15:16] Samantha: you know those arrows
[15:16] Samantha: cuz he had 2
[15:16] Paul B: Ah.
[15:16] Samantha: his face was covered with a hood with holes for the eyes
[15:16] Samantha: it was part of the uniform i think
[15:17] Samantha: mr breach is really late
[15:17] Samantha: i had dinner an hour ago
[15:18] Paul B: That's weird.
[15:18] Paul B: So, let me ask, is there anything you want us to do, or any messages you want us to deliver?
[15:19] Samantha: I don't know how you would
[15:19] Samantha: but try
[15:19] Paul B: Well, to any of your friends and family.
[15:19] Paul B: Or anyone on the outside.
[15:19] Samantha: wait
[15:19] Samantha: try to get to mr breach
[15:19] Paul B: What's the best way to do that?
[15:19] Samantha: from that email hes been sending stuff to you from
[15:20] Paul B: Okay.
[15:20] Paul B: I will let him know that you are worried about him since he is late.
[15:20] Samantha: ok
[15:21] Paul B: I will do that right now.
[15:21] Paul B: Do you think I should encode it?
[15:21] Samantha: dunno
[15:21] Samantha: do whatever you think is best
[15:22] Paul B: He sent us his message in code, so I'll send it back using he same code
[15:22] Samantha: ok
[15:22] Samantha: send what u think is best
[15:23] Samantha: tell me if he responds Smile
[15:24] Samantha: what address has he been sending u stuff from?
[15:24] Paul B: mirclegrlSPLAThotmail.com
[15:25] Paul B: He said he was going to use the old one you contacted us from.
[15:25] Samantha: oh the old one
[15:25] Samantha: ok
[15:26] Paul B: Okay, I sent him a note saying you were concerned since he was late, also to let us know if there was anything we could do.
[15:26] Samantha: oka
[15:26] Paul B: It was encoded using the same method he sent it to us with.
[15:26] Samantha: tell me if he responds
[15:26] Paul B: I will, as soon as he does.
[15:27] Samantha: thanks


She managed to get out for a bit, but didn't seem to see anything useful.

I e-mail Breach using the e-mail address he sent to us, this was the message I sent:

Quote:
samanthaisworriedaboutyoushesaysyouarelatesinceyounormallycomeafterdinnerpleaseletusknowifthereisanythingwecando


I encoded it in ROT and Vigenere the same as what he sent us, I received this response:

 		Double update, this one was mildly eventful:

Quote:
[15:28] Samantha: So how do you plan on getting me out of here?
[15:28] Paul B: We don't know just yet.
[15:28] Paul B: I think we have a problem.
[15:28] Samantha: what?
[15:29] Samantha: whats going on
[15:29] Samantha: Don't leave me out of the loop here
[15:29] Paul B: I'm sorry, trying to do a lot of things at once.
[15:29] Paul B: The e-mail address I sent it to says it's been taken over by a hacker.
[15:30] Samantha: ...whaaat?
[15:30] Samantha: like someone hacked into my account?
[15:30] Samantha: why would they?
[15:31] Paul B: Maybe someone found out about Breach?
[15:31] Samantha: u think hes the hacker?
[15:31] Samantha: i hope not
[15:31] Paul B: He might be, we won't jump to any conclusions until we ahve more facts.
[15:32] Samantha: well craaap
[15:32] Samantha: wait
[15:32] Samantha: someones knocking at the door
[15:32] Paul B: OKay.
[15:32] Samantha: its the special knock
[15:32] Paul B: Oh, good!
[15:32] Samantha: the one they use to say get blindfolded
[15:32] Paul B: Oh.
[15:32] Paul B: That's not good.
[15:32] Samantha: but theyve never done the machine before
[15:32] Samantha: twice in a day
[15:33] Samantha: im gonna hide this
[15:33] Samantha: brb
[15:34] Samantha: i dont know what to say
[15:34] Samantha: they threw something on the bed
[15:34] Samantha: and unblindfolded me
[15:34] Samantha: it was him
[15:34] Paul B: Breach
[15:34] Paul B: ?
[15:34] Samantha: yes
[15:35] Samantha: hes not moving
[15:35] Paul B: Can you check to see if he has a pulse or is breathing?
[15:35] Samantha: ill check breathing
[15:35] Samantha: I don't know how to check pulse
[15:35] Paul B: Let me know if he's breathing.
[15:35] Samantha: hes not
[15:35] Paul B: Do you know CPR?
[15:35] Samantha: no
[15:36] Samantha: omg
[15:36] Samantha: what do I do
[15:36] Samantha: he was the only friend i had here
[15:36] Samantha: im so scared
[15:36] Paul B: Is he warm?
[15:36] Samantha: kinda
[15:36] Samantha: yeah
[15:36] Paul B: We might be able to help him.
[15:36] Paul B: But you have to act fast and remain calm.
[15:36] Samantha: ill try
[15:36] Paul B: Turn him so he is laying on his back.
[15:36] Paul B: And prop his head back so his chin is up.
[15:37] Samantha: done
[15:37] Paul B: In the center of his chest, find the bottom of his rib cage.
[15:37] Samantha: he was already on his back
[15:37] Samantha: just give me all the instrucs and ill try to do it
[15:37] Paul B: Use the width of two of your fingers to measure from the bottom of his rib cage.
[15:38] Paul B: Then place the palm of your hand with the bottom of it two fingers up from the bottom of his rib cage.
[15:38] Samantha: ohh wait
[15:38] Samantha: I know what to do
[15:38] Paul B: ?
[15:38] Samantha: they taught us this last year
[15:38] Paul B: Okay.
[15:38] Paul B: Try it.
[15:38] Samantha: you push then breath right
[15:38] Paul B: Right.
[15:38] Paul B: Push 4-5 times with about a second in between, then plug his nose and breathe into his mouth 3 times.
[15:39] Paul B: Go go go!
[15:42] Samantha: hes aliveeee!
[15:42] Paul B: YES!
[15:42] Paul B: Way to go!
[15:42] Samantha: omg
[15:42] Samantha: thankyousomuch
[15:42] Paul B: Is he awake?
[15:42] Samantha: he was for a moment
[15:42] Samantha: then fell asleep
[15:42] Paul B: Is there any place to hide him in the room?
[15:43] Samantha: i did the chesh push and gave him air
[15:43] Samantha: his eyes opened he jumped up and grabbed me and suddenly fell asleep when he went down
[15:43] Samantha: but at least hes alive
[15:43] Samantha: oh
[15:43] Samantha: hiding spot
[15:43] Paul B: That's good.
[15:43] Paul B: Yeah, we don't want them to know he's alive if possible.
[15:43] Samantha: do you guys know who they are?
[15:43] Paul B: It might be weird without his body there, but maybe you can tell them that a guard came and took him out?
[15:44] Samantha: that sounds goo
[15:44] Samantha: good i mean
[15:44] Paul B: We don't, Mr. Breach was going to tell us, but they got to him first.
[15:44] Samantha: oh
[15:44] Samantha: im going to hide him under the bed
[15:44] Paul B: Okay. If there's a blanket, try to arrange it so it covers it up.
[15:44] Samantha: hes skinny enough to fit
[15:44] Samantha: yeah
[15:44] Samantha: np
[15:44] Samantha: wait
[15:44] Samantha: hes coming up now

[15:48] Paul B: I'm sorry, I have to go to a meeting, let me know what happens!
[15:50] Paul B: Okay, I'm back, is he okay?
[15:53] *** "Samantha" signed off at Thu May 01 15:53:40 2008.


Looks like Breach was discovered, killed by the company, but we were able to revive him! I'm guessing she signed off because they came back or because they had a lot to talk about.

 		So can we assume that the breach... I mean Mr. Breach has been discovered?

Interesting that as soon as we told "Samantha" what email account Breach was using it was shut down. Do you suppose that last conversation was really with her? Or maybe it was her but it's now being monitored?
