Hey everybody,
The following video is a reading of an email
I received on November 4th 2015. It was sent
from an anonymous email address
that was removed before I could even reply
to say thank you to this individual for sending
me his story.
Ultimately I will leave it up to you to decide
as to its authenticity. I will say that the
locations and places mentioned
in this email do check out to be legitimate,
accurately described and geographically correct.
I should also tell you that parts of this
email have been ommitted as I believe some
of the information was not meant to be read
publicly.
The information revealed in the ommitted parts
also points to the sender (whom I will refer
to as Mr. Blank)
as having very sensitive and intimate hidden
knowledge. I know this sounds cryptic and
it is meant to be. The mystery and
information Mr. Blank discloses goes all the
way to the top.
I will also say that Mr. Blank certainly has
the mentality and the playfulness attributes
of a genuine hacker. I believe there
is much more to his story than what is told
here or even provided in the ommitted parts.
I would also like to thank Mr. Blank for providing
me with the honor to tell his story on this
channel. I hope you all will join
me in wishing him safe travels and the best
of luck with much respect.
I do believe I know who you are Mr. Blank.
You have left a few comments on this channel
if I am correct. I do not wish to contact
you on Youtube because 1) I don't want to
bring any unwanted attention to you or put
you in any danger whatsoever and 2) I am not
100% certain that I am correct. But Please
feel free to pass along any information that
you may feel comfortable with. And now...
to the email from Mr. Blank.
Hello,
I would first like to tell you about myself.
I am or was a hacker, whether I am still active
or not is irrelevant. The World Wide Web is
not a place where we rest, we barely ever
come to the surface. Mainly I browse through
networks, maybe copying a file here or there.
I am not as malicious as I used to be. And
you do not have to worry about me but maybe
this story.
First off as I’ve stated earlier I am not
malicious anymore, so that being stated I
want to let everyone know how to safely connect
to the onion router (tor). To keep things
simple, this is for the common person with
no criminal intent, not for hackers or any
criminal so keep that in mind.
First of do NOT use a windows os!!! I don’t
know how or why people still do this. The
reason for this is there is something called
local leakage which is caused by Java or any
Microsoft based script. Any sniffer can pick
this up. Secondly, use whonix (tails works
ok too but not as good). Put the os and tor
on a flash drive and boot from the flash.
And third this is how most get dox’d uninstall
all webcam drives and programs within your
Microsoft os. If I can get into your webcam
on and take a ss and your owned. Google images
reverse search now I have your fb, Twitter,
ect all social media. I am not on social media
mainly for this reason. Lastly do NOT get
a vpn, get a ssh tunnel much more secure at
the moment with all the malware and sigint
surrounding the Vpn networks, and you cannot
trust any U.S. Based Vpn some even say any
vpn provider with the U.S. Coalitions territory.
//in the beginning// ****names and times have
been changed to protect identities*****
I started off learning about programs and
script writing when Counter Strike 1.0 came
out back in the late 90s. I would sell config.cfg
for the game based off the clients hardware
to optimize the performance of the game. A
worthless 10 bucks and I’ll write the best
.cfg to optimize the game. Now I won’t tell
you how old I was but I was in my teens. I
received an invite one day after school inviting
me to a group called the kewl kidz krew or
the kkk(the name of the group changes every
month or so but for all intent and purpose
we will refer to them as the kewl kidz krew)
within an embedded irc network.
It was a wide array of people from all different
countries and different perspectives on everything.
Though they all had one goal in common, to
share knowledge and skill it was a collective
of extremely bright people. Now I personal
am not the brightest, I am as to retain and
solve mathematical information and equations
like a pro but I couldn’t write a fucking
sentence to save my life, funny how are brains
work right?? Any way this group taught me
everything and were always willing to help.
There was a lot of mutual respect among each
other. Before tor it was a complete pain in
the fucking ass to connect to networks that
couldn’t be obtained by indexers such as
Google or Bing. So yes, I know how to search
without it but on December 20th 2012 that
all changed with the public release of the
onion router. At this point I was a malicious
little fuck that felt like the world was against
me, I do not condone any of my actions, and
hate to think I was as big of a little shit
or troll online as I was, truly scaring kids.
I can say with some certainty that one or
two of the deep web stories of people getting
hacked was probably us. Just to troll though
we were teens haha not murderers. And for
those stories with murderers are mostly bs
I mean it’s possible, but mostly they were
trolls looking for a good scare.
First off if your thinking of going deep,
the hidden wiki won’t allow this. It will
allow you to get into the surface of the deepweb.
Nothing more if you want to go further. So
first I started my search as I did most days
after work, compiling my own networks that
are not on the hidden wiki. I was going through
a network log just to try and see how secure
this network actually was (I was looking into
how to shell an onion site.). The log was
encrypted, which is pretty standard but the
funny thing was, it was an old encryption……
Idiots I thought… Well to this day I still
don’t know who was the cat and who was the
mouse.
I shared my finding with the kewl kidz krew
and one of my friends that I had grown to
trust, we shell call him “impulse” said
he could decide the encryption for me. I could
have done this, but why would I when someone
else will right?
The next day I came home and there it was,
all different links ips actions associated
with the ips. Everything! There was one ip
that stuck out like a soar thumb, it was right
there. We all discussed why this ip frequently
visited the site. Well it was a proxy, go
figure, but impulse said he’d be able to
get the actual ip. Ok, I said lets see who
it is.
About two and a half weeks went by, at this
point I honestly was working on other things.
But I received a message. Impulse had gotten
the ip. I sat up for hours, waiting for my
chance to scare who ever was behind this ip.
I tried to dox the ip, nothing came up not
even an isp provider sooooo I know he’s
got a vpn hardware anonymizer that simply
plugs into one of your router ports and redirects
you around your isp provider. How do I know
this? I have one too. You cannot purchase
them, anonabox and similar pieces of hardware
on the market are frauds don’t waste your
money, just research it and make your own.
I waited almost all night for the fucker to
connect. He never connected, I would have
started off with the usual stuff, opening
his cd tray and turning off his monitor. A
msg though popped up on the network that was
not encrypted with a time stamp of a second
ago. It read “are you enjoying our mock
network?” I ran a network protocol tool
similar to shark wire. At this point impulse
was helping me. There was a submask within
the mock network that seemed to be remotely
accessing the mock network. Impulse got another
friend in on the action who truly could help
us if anyone could.
A second message appeared, as we were tearing
apart the network. “There is no point in
going any further, you will find nothing”
and for two hours we didn’t find anything,
and there were no more msgs. At this point
it was close to 6 am and I had to go to work.
When I came home, I grabbed the mail and the
turned on the tv and played with the dog (I
cannot specify the breed because it is illegal
in most states, and yes I am from the United
States). It is a big dog that is half wild
😉 My vanguard :). After dinner I went through
my mail, there was one envelope with no return
or stamps…. Someone put this in my mailbox.
Maybe a rsvp for a birthday party I thought
as I tore open the envelope. At first I thought
it was empty but when I looked down in my
lap there was a small piece of paper, like
the ones in fortune cookies you find at Chinese
restaurants. It had a string of numbers, I
didn’t know what they represented at first.
I tried inputting the string of numbers and
letters into the onion router, and nothing.
Then I tried converting them. It looked to
me like some sort of hexadecimal string of
numbers, nothing in deci., text, rot13 , nothing.
I msg’ impulse about it, he didn’t respond
for several mins which isn’t like him. He
was pretty freaked out, I could tell because
he was misspelling everything. He said his
friend the other night hasn’t been online.
Well I thought it’s only been one day. Then
he replied I got the string in my mail too,
but I also got a Polaroid picture. I never
saw the Polaroid. But he described it as a
picture of a mutilated girl….. He said he
knew the friend he brought in to help us was
a girl, and there was a time stamp on the
Polaroid….. But with his note it stated
not to look any further, and to only use the
instructions given to us, he knew what we
were searching for and he/she could help as
long as we followed the instructions. He also
stated that they do not play well with others.
Impulse said that the number wasn’t an onion,
he said he couldn’t believe I’ve forgotten
so fast. It was a string of cmd s like we
used before tor.
We talked it over for about a week, we realized
at this point we were on our own and shouldn’t
bring someone else into this with everything
that was going on. And I was not fully convinced
as Impulse that this was legit, prolly just
some other troll. I finally convinced impulse
to do it, but he said he would only do it
if we met in person and if we did it together,
almost like a LAN party. At this point I really
knew he was freaked out. He is known for mining
Bitcoin and other currencies, so as far as
money went there wasn’t an issue. We agreed
to meet in San Francisco at a cafe called
“Joes” off 20th something and Geary
I had some fake ids and flew into San Francisco
no problem. I didn’t have a picture of Impulse
or even a real name. I walked to the front
of joes cafe, it had a big window looking
in. It was crowded as all hell. I sat there
staring for 5mins it seemed like, when I hear
a voice call out my alias. A skinny kid like
me approached he was about a few inches shorter
than me. He explained that he had been paranoid
for so long. Being the stoner I was at the
time, I told him to chill and smoke a spliff
in the park. I found some easy, San Fran,
what can I say? Thanks to the tenderloin right??
It calmed him down greatly.
We started later that night when impulse seemed
to be a little more loose and determined not
to let this dick wipe win. I told him they
prolly did it through a layer 7 Ddos attack
on his friend’s network and then sent you
that, to scare you. This made sense, with
layer 7’s your network is at the control
of the ddoser. This thought put his mind at
ease. I only wish it were true….
We follow the string of cmds throwing it through
all kinds of networks until we found it. Right
where they wanted us to be. Now impulse ,I
will say came from an outstanding computer
science college in the city of Cambridge Ma.
He studied mainly general computer programming
and algorithm based programming, and was one
of the best I might add. Which is something
I don’t think they saw coming. He encrypted
everything to the point that if our computer
went into sleep mode, it would still encrypt
every aspect of what was on our machines.
So gg.
Upon the final cmd, it prompted us with a
directory that contained message boards and
all kinds of videos as well. We searched through
a lot of it. It seemed to be a collection
of knowledge, like our group but they were
far more advanced than I could ever imagine
being. They had stuff from math problems,
to networking, to killings…. It was a masterpiece
of information. Wtf is this I thought. They
had everything from a collection of different
cults but one stood out, I will leave it unamed.
It was a cult we found out after digging for
another 20 mins or so, that seemed to be all
over this network. We tried searching them
on our phone so we didn’t bump into the
.coms on tor (rookie mistake). Nothing. There
is absolutely nothing on them on the World
Wide Web.
Hmmmm, interesting I thought because with
all the coverage of the deep web I figured
something must arise from this, but goose
egg. I returned to the directory seeing a
brand new msg posted less then a minute ago
“I see you followed the obligation you had
to your friend, this is us. Would you like
to look deeper?”
We did not respond and about another 10mins
or so, another msg popped up on the board,
“This is starting to get really annoying”
I thought fuck this guy, I’m dropping a
worm and I’m gunna have ur ass by dawn.
But impulse was already on it. He dropped
a string of worms that I have never seen before.
It was masked so well. We drank a beer sitting
and waiting, until another msg popped up,
“This is all we needed from you”
Our computers locked, I couldn’t even move
the mouse. We pulled the ethernet cables and
packed up the equipment so fast and got out
of there faster than anyone else could have,
I swear. We didn’t even bother to check
out of our hotel, we just went straight to
another. We were freaked out. Was that the
government or something? How the fuck did
they do that? We tried to get as much sleep
as possible. All I could think about was how
much damage did they cause, I mean they could
have destroyed my hackbot network, I’d be
screwed. Years of work down the drain.
The next morning, I promised a friend from
my high school I’d meet up with him. I left
impulse asleep in the hotel. He knew I’d
be back after I met my friend. I told him
about it the night before. I met my buddy
“Tom” for breakfast. We talked about high
school and all the shit we used to get into.
We were weird as fuck in an innocent laughable
way, and I felt like myself again, but then
I realized it had been three hours already.
So, “Tom” and I went to go get impulse.
We opened the door and there was absolutely
nothing in the room, not even impulse. I was
confused. I called impulse multiple times,
my computer was gone and I was pissed. I7
2.8quad 32 gig mem, and it was a laptop I
built myself. You can imagine how much that
was. Fuck I thought.
I kept sending messages to his phone. “Where
did you go”; “are you ok?”;”where
are you”;”if you stole my shit you are
fucking dead”. About after 5mins of this,
I got a text from an unfamiliar number. The
mysterious text only contained one word,
“Run”
“Tom” was not good with computers, but
he was a drug dealer and a pot grower who
always carried, but I do not. Tom was very
calm with the whole situation after I told
him what happened in a nutshell, he stated
there was nothing to fear anymore.
This struck me as odd; I didn’t know Tom
after high school he moved here after he was
18, so we never hung out in person (he was
my best friend in high school.) I only shot
the occasional email to him of a funny video
or gif I came across, he looked the same too.
I looked at him and he had a weird stare but
he was a weird guy, nothing to be suspicious
about, until I noticed that Tom was pressing
a button in his hand. I didn’t know what
it did from looking at it, but I had an idea.
I told Tom I’d be right back. i wanted to
check with the office to see if impulse checked
out. He didn’t want me to go, but I told
him to pick me up in front of the office because
we didn’t need to be here anymore.
I strolled into the office lobby casually.
Tom was already in front, staring through
the glass. I didn’t ask the receptionist
a damn thing. I walked into the bathroom,
walked back out and ran. I ran and ran for
what seemed like all day. I didn’t know
what to do. I eventually arrived at a place
called deadman’s drop in the golden gate
state park. I checked my phone, 1 new msg
from Tom.
“I see you have figured out we are everywhere”
I eventually got out of San Fran and moved
to Vancouver, but that didn’t last long,
I have changed identities 3 times now and
seems like they are toying with me.
I looked into my friend Tom one day from a
public wifi, what I saw scared the fucking
shit out of me. My friend Tom died in a car
crash right after high school. I never knew
this because of my lifestyle and the fact
we moved. For weeks I had a constant shiver
going down my back. Who the hell have I been
emailing for the last 8 fucking years then…….
Makes no sense at all. About a year later
I have found peace finally and went to go
visit an ex of mine down in Sarasota, Florida.
I was there for just the weekend.
I woke up one morning early, I can never sleep
past 7:30 am no matter what. My ex was fast
asleep. I decided to go for a walk and get
some coffee for me and her. I sat down at
the cafe and admired all the happy people.
I love this about people, happiness. I realized
in that moment that I was truly a piece of
shit for some of the things I have done. But
as I’ve stated earlier I have found peace.
Suddenly, a man sat at my table. He was a
little older with greying hair and a tattered
shirt which looked a little out of place.
He grabbed my ex’s coffee and said “thanks
I didn’t know you knew I was coming.”
I said excuse me wtf are you doing? He shhhh’d
me and let out a small giggle, like a child.
He then said let me explain.
He explained what we found that night in San
Fran was a very famous site, a site that is
a myth. And they wish it to stay that way.
He said this site has been called is Mariana’s
web, though it has never been established
as Mariana’s web, it was dubbed that by
the public, not by the users. And it’s name
and routing changes almost every minute. We
happened to be given a string of cmds to get
in the back door. Which have changed since.
He said the unamed cult was watching me, and
that their cult was more powerful than any
government because they control the corporations
who control the government through special
interest groups. They admired our commitment
and our intelligence when it came to problem
solving. He further explained, they gained
power through intelligence gathering but also
in other more physical forms like red room
networking security and other illegal avenues
on the deep web. They were a collective of
richest and the most intelligent people on
the face of the earth. He also stated, “now
you know what we are, now forget about us.”
They just wanted to see what we knew and to
learn more about this encryption we had on
our devices
I told him it was mostly impulse who did the
encryption on our computers and he said, “well
that’s too bad” as he got up and left.
I say there trying to compute what he meant,
but I think I already know as hopefully you
do too…….
“Do not go searching for them. They will
rip your lungs and entrails out” that was
the threat I got about a month later in an
email.
I never heard from impulse ever again, or
his friend online. Though there is some evidence
he did not make it based off of some obituaries
I found. I do not know who sent the text to
me in the hotel that day, I’ve tried to
look into it and got nowhere. “Tom” I
never heard from again either.
Since all this I have found peace within myself
and accept death as best I can because I do
not know what will happen in the future. I
will not be returning to to this email and
there are many ips attached to this account.
Though I have left you some clues on how to
reach me within this email. Everything you
need is in front of you and I will supply
with some further evidence if you crave your
curiosity, you will find me.
You may use this story or not it does not
matter to me. Or even believe it I don’t
care, I haven’t told anyone this story and
just need to blow some steam off about it.
P.S. The following is my gift to you because
no one else knows what the fuck their doing.
I will keep it simple since you and I do not
think alike.
[Some parts have been omitted.]
This information may seem fantastic to you
and indeed it is, but I assure you, it is
all true. The clues I have left you within
this email may be dissected using common sense.
If you want more, find me. I have nothing
to hide. I just like to challenge people to
a good game of puzzles and….. cryptography???
😀
[More has been omitted.]
Thank you friends. I look forward to monitoring
your search. If I’m not already dead, maybe
I’ll have an opportunity to connect with
you again. If I wish.
Yours truly, :(
