Sehr geehrte Lane Hackers,
I contact you on behalf of a good friend of mine who is in need of your organisation's particular brand of skills. I trust those who specialize in braking the most high-tier security systems would also be able to, in a way, use this knowledge to secure data of their own? If so, I might be able to bring you in contact with somebody who would pay handsomely for a nigh unto unbreakable encryption. Let me explain:
The person I am talking about is affiliated with The Core and expresses a strong desire to leave his accurséd surroundings behind. Since he is already under scrutiny — a bad place to be in a totalitarian environment — he needs somebody else to contact those whom The Core would deem personae non gratae. "Why doesn't he simply leave to the houses?" I can hear you ask. The answer to that is fairly simple: He commands/owns a Mako class battleship and would like to keep it; you know how squeamish the houses can be with anything that could harm their own arsenal.
To this end, he would need to be enabled to talk privately with his allies without The Core listening so they can arrange for things. And this is where we thought of you. I suggest a meeting in private to discuss all further things. If you're interested name a location and my friend and I will be there; we will also provide part of the payment in advance if necessary: Name your price and target account.
I am Mr. Yoshida of the Lane Hackers. You made the right call for contacting us. It is our profession in making people disappear from totalitarian organizations and corrupt organizations.
It is not the first time that members of the Core defect with a capital warship. At this rate, a few more defectors and the Core will run out of capitals. Or perhaps we should send a team of the best Hackers and steal the remaining Core warships before future defectors get them. I will have to think about it.
Jokes aside, I am sure you realize that there are many logical incoherencies in your message. Like the part where your client is not alone and has a few hundreds of defectors with him; because right now you are implying that he is going to pilot a battleship on his own.
Miss Maren I will be honest with you. We were going to ignore the message because it seems like a classic prank message, not worthy of our precious time. But you are quite persistent, I will give you that. So one of our Initiates will meet and hear you out. Who knows, perhaps you simply made a mistake. It's a common symptom of cardamine withdrawal.
Exact time and location will be arranged privately.
I am led to believe that the meeting with our operative was productive and fruitful.
Von Westefeld, we are merely the keymakers. Keys that unlock new doors in life. Which door your client will decide to open is his own choice only. The following encrypted message can only be deciphered by your client, for he only knows the key. The number of the software units which your client was given during his private meeting with our operative is the key of this message.

ID:Maren v. Westefeld Location:Rheinland Subject:Acknowledging the New Mission ENCRYPTION:
Sehr geehrter Herr Yoshida,
I am contacting you on behalf of the client to confirm that the directive has been received, understood and acknowledged. We are grateful for the help that the Lane Hackers have graciously extended to him and are currently looking into our options of fulfilling the task given to us.
Although the exact nature thereof has surprised us, there will be no problem with its completion. Rest assured that we share your enmity regarding the subjects and it will therefore be a personal pleasure to show these ne'er-do-wells the error of their ways. You will hear from us in time.

ID:Maren v. Westefeld Location:Rheinland Subject:Our Part of the Bargain ENCRYPTION:
Herr Yoshida,
It is done. Your message has been relayed with the required forcefulness. I found this one in Frankfurt harassing a trader — because of course they were. Since this specimen seemed rather willing to go along with their shenanigans, I figured that the captain of the ArkenStone was simply too dense to comprehend what he was supporting.
Shortly thereafter I was joined by an acquaintance of mine who ended up providing me with cover but nothing else. The combat performance of this henchman of the Libertonians has been really pathetic. One would think that the stolen Wraith in which he meandered through space would prove worrisome, but apparently they either do not know how to keep this technology working or this one was no combat pilot, which is rather doubtful, considering the ship.
Anyways: You will find evidence of the deed attached. It has been a pleasure working with you. We are awaiting the payment alongside the promised keycode.

[03.06.2016 18:26:34] Sweetheart: "It means that I will destroy your ship and let you drift through space to ponder your wrongs, Herr von Braun."
[03.06.2016 18:26:48] VWA|Peter.von.Braun: Ich think not.
[03.06.2016 18:27:09] Sweetheart: "Prepare yourself, Herr von Braun. I do not care what you think."

[03.06.2016 18:33:42] Sweetheart: She shivers. "That was... something."
And not a moment too soon. I was about to inform you that the program was close in expiring, your time was about to run out. Ms Maren, you have witnessed first-hand the corruption which plagues Rheinland. Their supposed humanism and philanthropy apparently includes extortions of civilian transports. You have done Rheinland a service.
I am led to believe that your client was successful in his mission. I hope he is in good health and his ship is still.. operational. As a man with many contacts in many places, I can further assist him in finding a place he would call home, a place where his and his crew's nomadic life will end. As I said before, I am the keymaker.
For security reasons no receipt of the payment will be avalable, but the 1 million credits were anonymously wired to the one who made the kill shot. As for the keycode, please insert the following code into your program. It's basically the password which will automatically remove the countdown mode.
