And here is the E-mail from "the boss"
Date: Thu, 4 Nov 2004 16:01:16 -0800 (PST)
From: "Adamn Coder" <adamcoder@yahoo.com>
Subject: Concerning Quanco Corp.
Hello, thank you all for helping me. I am Adamn, the leader of a small group of Coders/Hackers. We aren't the illegal type. We usually just mess around and hang out. One day, however, one of our members friends gave us his login to Quanco Corp. We logged in, and we were instantly caught. Apparently you have a schedule as to when you can log on, and this wasn't part of his schedule. Quanco Corp. thought that we were in fact, not him, and have been searching for us across the net. We have not found anything out about them, but we are afraid. What we need you to do is find the website, and find out what you can. We believe they are watching for us. Thank you for your time.


Anyone else get this?

 		I got this too. I thought it was a joke at first.

ReverbAndWhiskey: Do I know you?
SpyderCracker: Prolly not. You're one of a few names I've gotten to contact. Another person to help with quantus?
ReverbAndWhiskey: what is this quantus?
ReverbAndWhiskey: Are you from Tranquil Valley?
SpyderCracker: Quantus? That evil mega company that's hounding us. And no, I don't even know where tranquil valley is.
ReverbAndWhiskey: Who refered you to me?
ReverbAndWhiskey: Why are you hounding you?
SpyderCracker: my boss, he says you can help
ReverbAndWhiskey: I would be glad to help
ReverbAndWhiskey: Why are they hounding you?
SpyderCracker: cuz we logged into their server for all of 30 seconds and they flipped out
SpyderCracker: just on a dare from a friend
ReverbAndWhiskey: What was on their server?
SpyderCracker: I dunno, we didn't have enough time to look before they caught us.
ReverbAndWhiskey: And now what is going on?
SpyderCracker: We're looking for help.
ReverbAndWhiskey: Does Quantus have a website?
ReverbAndWhiskey: I am here to help you
SpyderCracker: not that I know of. We were on a LAN connection. We had to actually CUT the cord so that they couldn't trace us.
SpyderCracker: They don't need a website, methinks
ReverbAndWhiskey: What do you know about them?
SpyderCracker: nothing, that's what bothers me. They go nuts over 30 seconds, and now we're being hunted like dogs.
ReverbAndWhiskey: How are they hunting you?
SpyderCracker: they've been tearing through the net looking for us.
SpyderCracker: any sign of who we are
ReverbAndWhiskey: But you don't know ANYTHING about them?
SpyderCracker: just that they're a computer company
ReverbAndWhiskey: software or hardware?
SpyderCracker: Software, I think...
ReverbAndWhiskey: hrm.
ReverbAndWhiskey: how did you find them?
ReverbAndWhiskey: Who is your boss BTW?
SpyderCracker: we didn't. A friend works at home for them, and we logged in under his name when he wasn't scheduled to be on. They figured it wasn't him, and started sending crazy messages about tracing us and such.
SpyderCracker: oh, he's not really my "Boss" just a friend. He's pretty much the leader of the group.
ReverbAndWhiskey: what group would this be?
ReverbAndWhiskey: Do you know Anne Fisher?
SpyderCracker: a group of 4 friends who share common interests. Who is Anne Fisher?
ReverbAndWhiskey: What are these interests?
SpyderCracker: Coding, Hacking, Computers, etc.
ReverbAndWhiskey: So why come to me?
SpyderCracker: I dunno, boss said that you're into puzzle-solving and stuff
ReverbAndWhiskey: Are you from Canada?
SpyderCracker: what?
ReverbAndWhiskey: just wondering
ReverbAndWhiskey: Smile
SpyderCracker: um....no?
ReverbAndWhiskey: Where are you from?
SpyderCracker: shh, don't tell
ReverbAndWhiskey: lol. ok
ReverbAndWhiskey: What do you want me to do to help you?
SpyderCracker: I dunno
SpyderCracker: I was just told to talk to you
ReverbAndWhiskey: ok.
ReverbAndWhiskey: Did you find ANYTHING on their servers?
SpyderCracker: nope, didn't even get a chance to look
SpyderCracker: although I think I remember seeing something about a dry_ice.exe, or something like that...
ReverbAndWhiskey: Have yo talked to your friend who works for them?
SpyderCracker: Yeah, he said that all he does is enter data
ReverbAndWhiskey: odd.
ReverbAndWhiskey: Quantus is a Candian company
SpyderCracker: is it?
ReverbAndWhiskey: if you don't live in Canada there isn't much they can do to you
SpyderCracker: Quantus Inc.?
ReverbAndWhiskey: hrm
ReverbAndWhiskey: different quantus
SpyderCracker: ah, I se
SpyderCracker: see
ReverbAndWhiskey: this once appears to be in Charlotte
ReverbAndWhiskey: Are you from there as well?
SpyderCracker: no
ReverbAndWhiskey: Do you have a name?
SpyderCracker: yep
ReverbAndWhiskey: What do you want me to call you?
SpyderCracker: Spyder

Inc, 704-377-0629, 208 East Blvd, Charlotte, NC, 28203
SpyderCracker: hmmm
ReverbAndWhiskey: this is the only other company I could fins
ReverbAndWhiskey: find
SpyderCracker: that doesn't seem right
SpyderCracker: was it quantus?
ReverbAndWhiskey: both are within a mile or so of each other
SpyderCracker: quan...co?quancin?...I can't remember
ReverbAndWhiskey: Well I don't really see how I can help.
SpyderCracker: me neither
ReverbAndWhiskey: have a good day.
SpyderCracker: what's yer email?
SpyderCracker: I'll have my boss contact you

ReverbAndWhiskey: weird
ReverbAndWhiskey: Does your boss have aim?
SpyderCracker: nah, I'm the only one

 		I don't think I want to play a game where they cannot even get the name of the main company right. Wink
