Hrmm, the reverse lookup I did only shows 4 websites on the same ip
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

1. www.topsecretconspiracy.com Whois [+]
2. topsecretconspiracy.com Whois [+]
3. sciencegonecrazy.com Whois [+]
4. pacificmonsterisland.com Whois [+]

So yeah, PMI is totally related, send it in as a tip maybe?


EDIT: Added spoiler tags, since this seems pretty obviously to be one Razz - vpi

According to an io9 article, it's for Monsters vs. Aliens. The proof is pretty convincing, as some of the characters in the movie show up in the Topsecretconspiracy video.

These are the domains that I know of on that IP:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

www.topsecretconspiracy.com
www.sciencegonecrazy.com
www.pacificmonsterisland.com
www.oldmancarls.com
www.oldmancarlsflavoredsnacks.com
www.schlangeraerospace.com


I don't think the bottom 3 are related, unless they are just placeholders to keep squatters from taking the domains later on.

hmm, I thought the forum automatically made plain urls linkable -- i guess i hang out in IRC too much

On the run yet gotta admit to glee Cool An email and clue attachment from Jeffrey which imo hooks into pacificmonsterisland
Quote:
While I'm waiting to post your awesome (yet disturbing!!!) blob evidence I want to share something that has been puzzling us here at TopSecretConspiracy. This is a shipping manifest that was sent to us anonymously several weeks ago. They claimed "it will lead us right to heart of the conspiracy" but we cannot seem to figure out how or what it will do that. Take a look and if you know any experts who might help, show it to them. But trust no one. Unless they seem trustworthy, in which case, yeah you can maybe trust them but don't get too cozy or anything.

See the attached image.

Thanks. -J.F

I received the same attachment, I'm sure you're right about where it will eventually lead. Just not sure how they were planning on getting us there. I'm sorta stumped on how to respond to Jeffrey, since we already know where this going. Confused

Also can't photoshop any info from the manifest and JPHS shows the JPEG file as "Not modified".....

Maybe it's just a hook for some "experts" here which we "maybe trust but don't get too cozy or anything" (mega ROFL--Jeffrey's Quote) to grab with an email to jeffreySPLATtopsecretconspiracy.com about pacificmonsterisland? Dunno

Have begun following "topconspiracy" on twitter while waiting for developments as this looks like pure delight.

There was something there before that? I hadn't realised, when I clicked on it, it had already changed to the "heavy traffic" version. Which made me very confused why people pointed out the images directory, actually.

I sent an email to Jeffrey thanking him for his trust and telling him that we couldn't uncover anything new from the manifest document. What follows is his reply...

Jeffrey wrote:
Well let me tell you a bit more of what WE are looking for... A webmaster friend of MINE who shall remain nameless thinks that this shipping manifest is somehow related to a conspiracy he has been tracking over at pacificmonsterisland.com. He is a BIT OF A PARANOID WEIRDO and thinks all this ties together. The shipping manifest is either going to prove his insane theory correct or reveal he's a nut ONCE and for ALL. I'm not trying to dodge his insane claims but frankly I don't think just because the manifest says "GIANT INSECT MUTATION" that it's necessarily the same one he's been following. The guy is kind of a tool!

But take a look at the photo and tell me what you think. If you discover that my obnoxious colleague is correct, then I will put you in touch with him.

I feel like there's something in that manifest we're not seeing yet.

- J.F.


So I guess there is something to be discovered from the manifest document. Note that he gives us the PMI website.
