The Beginning

On October 26, 2016, at around 7PM EDT, a user (Prime) came into the GameDetectives Discord and said:

so i have a website, and it was getting DOSed (by one IP), I traced that ip and got to SocietyX.net, I looked through the source code and found a link to a password page. i posted it to the ohnickel discord, then while i was looking around at my sites files, i found "lol.html"

https://itspri.me/ <<my website

http://societyx.net/ <<hacking site

https://itspri.me/lol.html <<the file i found

The Homepage

The homepage for the SOcietyX website shows the logo in ASCII art, with a video running in the background. Clicking on a specific character in the logo goes to a password page. The source of the password page shows this:

 <!--
	     __     __                                        _

              \ \_/ /__  _   _    __ _ _ __ ___   _ __   ___ | |_

The Password

The password is given as flashing letters and numbers in the background of the homepage: Z8L0N2G

After entering the password, another string appears: gk1qk

That string can be entered into the prompt, which gives:

Caw Caw, Tweet Tweet c:
Together, but not together.
9a78211436f6d42~5ec38f5c4e02270801f3524f8

9a78211436f6d42~5ec38f5c4e02270801f3524f8 is a Sha1 hash for @9a78211436f6d42, which leads to a twitter account with one tweet:

u4sNeZB3ua.47425e4490d1548713efea3b8a6f5d778e4b1766

c: <3

47425e4490d1548713efea3b8a6f5d778e4b1766 is another Sha1 hash for "php". This leads to another page, titled "Love." The page slowly prints text, that reads:

~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "You are here, and we are here."
You are here, and we are here.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "Your curiosity must get the better of you sometimes."
Your curiosity must get the better of you sometimes.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "I love SocietyX."
I love SocietyX.


~$ echo "<a href="qut1eLkzbp.php">Sometimes, the answer is you.</a>"
Sometimes, the answer is you.

Smart Little Butterflies

The last message from "Love" leads to another password prompt. The password is the user's IP.

Entering it gives the text Aren't you a smart little butterfly!. Additionally, the following appears in the source code of the page:

!--  _--_                                     _--_
/#()# #\         0             0         /# #()#\

      (#/                               \#)-->

The text in the bottom right of the butterfly leads to y1FKrYSB.php. The page reads Well, that's it. You've won. Congrats.

The title of the page is 8utt3rfl1, which leads to another .php link. Upon visiting the page, it begins to draw a butterfly. The background fades to white, revealing the text I <3 SCX. Viewing the page source shows this:

<!--
	     __     __
             \ \   / /
              \ \_/ /__  _   _    __ _ _ __ ___
               \   / _ \| | | |  / _` | '__/ _ \
                | | (_) | |_| | | (_| | | |  __/
                |_|\___/ \__,_|  \__,_|_|  \___|
                                 _
                                | |
                            __ _| | ___  _ __   ___
                           / _` | |/ _ \| '_ \ / _ \
                          | (_| | | (_) | | | |  __/_
                           \__,_|_|\___/|_| |_|\___(_)
-->

I HATE SCX

The butterfly page leads to a link, I<3SCX.html. After about twenty minutes, the page started to change. At first, the page changed from fading to white to fading to red. Eventually, the I <3 SCX changed to I HATE SCX.

The PM began to use the page to communicate:

YOU GUYS WERE QUICK, I WASN'T EXPECTING IT

MAYBE WE SHOULD WORK TOGETHER

OR MAYBE I'LL GIVE YOU A NEW CLUE

I KNOW YOU'RE FREAKING OUT, SPAMMING F5 LIKE THE LITTLE BUTTERFLY YOU ARE.

At this point, the Discord users began to try to attempt to learn if the PM was in Discord with them. Discord user Lucario posted you know it :wink: , which was immediately posted on the page.

The PM began to post more messages:

I love you too Lucario

sorry my dad called me, which was another quote from a Discord user.

get off my website

Finally, the text went blank, and was then replaced with:

See you tomorrrow? You guys might get a surprise tomorrow <3 :)
