Found this in my band's email. I don't know what this means. Hello everyone. I am the vocalist of a new band and we decided to start recording our practices about a week ago. Anyway, we didn't upload every single one but time was running short because I had to go to work really early in the morning and I posted one of the videos before checking any of them. My bassist called me when I came back from work, right before I was about to pass out, and said he got an email on our bands e-mail address. I checked it out while I was on the phone with him and noticed the only email we had was from this strange email address. Mind you, we've only been writing music for about a month now.
We have had one show already so I doubt that anybody knows who we are or knows our freaking e-mail address other than our twitter. The email doesn't have anything in the body except for this weird pattern of 6's and letters. I asked a few of my friends from work the next day and they said, it looks
like coding and to look for people who are good at those sort of things.
Here's the picture.
I am also disturbed about the video in the attachment. It encouraged me to check out the video I uploaded that night. It makes our band practice unnerving. What does this code mean? Please help.
EDIT: Our band's twitter is the "www" link on this profile. It has the attachment from this e-mail somewhere on that.

It looks like an encrypted password...
Edit: Or yeah, what he just said.
Edit again: that's a lot of effort just to go and send a misspelled word.

That email address seems really damn familiar... but anyway, Deimos is the Greek personification of sheer terror. Can't find much significance for 1366 though.

I'm gonna assume it's the number 13 and then 666 -600. XD Just flavor, methinks. Basically "woah this guy is EVVVVVVVVIL"

You're probably right. It's a habit of mine to look for meanings in names (given names, email addresses, screen names), especially in ARGs, but sometimes they're as simple as that
