funny thing, one of the local radio stations is doing a contest just like this right now...lol
honestly though, i'd have brought a close friend or family member with just to be sure, and even then on top of that i would have checked shit out like crazy before approaching.
either way, had me interested the whole time, nice vid!

You're right, that was really frickin' creepy, real or not. Always love the good emotion-stirring tale right before bed.
Didn't get shivers, partly because I found a lot of parts to be very funny in a dark sort of way, but really really good little story.
I meant they could find out who purchased the hosting and track him down, or if he carefully hid his tracks, then trace the IP's he used to do so. If he hid those too, then you're looking for a Welshman with amazing topographical and electronic security knowledge, who is also a dangerous sociopath with nine fucking grand... kinda narrows shit down doesn't it?Jadak said:
not gonna lie, those are much more creepier than the video OP posted.The Man With the Soap said:
but still, creepy shit will be creepy..
Maybe I'm jaded, but this didn't "give me shivers" at all. A simple, fairly obvious bit of murder mystery fiction is entertaining, to be sure, but not frightening. I will give the creator(s) credit where it's due, though.
Regardless, it's an interesting, if a bit hackneyed piece of story telling. It's not superb, but it's far from bad. God knows it's executed far more professionally than most of the trite you see on the web.
For me it was the over-dramatic acting on the part of both the narrator and the guy calling himself Fortress. Not to mention the fact that, even though the "story/crime" is unsolved, the narrator seems to know an awful lot about it. Pretty amazing when you consider that he repeatedly says that "no one was watching" the events unfold.Spoon E11 said:

No, it really doesn't. Especially as while you may be easily impressed, none of what was demonstrated was "amazing" to the point of actually limiting anything. And hosting by proxy, especially for a minor low traffic site, is not difficult in the least. Good luck when your tracking dead ends at a free wi-fi hotspot the guy only ever visited for that specific purpose. All you'd really have is "guy with 9 grand", "reasonably smart, maybe", and a few guidelines on his location at various times, such as having to been in wales at the time of the murder, having to have at some point been at that yellow house, etc... Not for certain that he'd even have to be welsh.Owen Robertson said:
All in all, unless the guy was stupid or not anticipating the need to be hidden, there's not much of anything to go on. Hell, even if you want to assume that he had "amazing topographical and electronic security knowledge", unless he's a professor or something in those specific subjects at a near by university, that doesn't narrow down shit either, it would only help if you already at a suspect to compare those traits to.
Why is this scary exactly? It's a story about greed. Money does weird things to people, especially those seeking to get rich quick. Also, who would be dumb enough to actually think something like this would be legit? Btw, that was a rhetorical question because nearly half of the people on the internet would be dumb enough to do it.
