I can't believe it. We caught the thing with the classic foreign prince scam. Anyway the fishy creep is contained in an email on a thumbdrive now locked deep within HQ, far from any electronic devices. And my carpet still isn't cleaned. Ekaj seems to be in denial over the whole thing so it's best that all personnel participate in his efforts to pretend as if nothing happened. — Bin Folks, Administrator

This is a reminder to all personnel, don't click any suspicious links found in your email! Maybe don't click any links in your email, ever. Our security screening will typically remove any potentially dangerous links, but sometimes they can sneak through like electronic rats through cracks in the also electronic wall. Electronically. Be careful, like me! I've never clicked a suspicious link in my life, I'm on an undefeated streak here, be more like your pal Ekaj! — Ekaj Folks, IT Director

I just spent a year's worth of time trapped in a time loop but it's fine now, the Not-Yeti is safely contained and whoever got my office wet is getting fired immediately. We're restricting water usage in HQ until we catch this thing. Whatever's trapping our people in emails has made a dire mistake— does it have any idea how expensive this carpet is to clean? Also it took my son. 

I think I know what this thing wants, the ACF may or may not have the anomaly known as Poseidon in our possession— considering HQ is a floating facility, whatever is orchestrating this is hoping to sink us and free their god. We're not gonna let that happen, we're going to use its own tricks against it— I got one of Ekaj's personnel to trace back the thing's email. Send it as many scams as you can, I'm betting if it falls for enough, its power will weaken. I

f any personnel happen to do carpet cleaning part time or as some sort of boring hobby, please contact me. You have no idea how expensive it is to fly in a cleaner from the mainland, screen them, have them clean the carpet, wipe their memory so they don't leak any foundation secrets afterwards, and fly them back home. 

The thing's email is listed below, get your hooks ready everyone— we're going phishing.

Hello [ACF personnel],

It is I, queen of Containment, Nadalia Trent real. I did not click link and give soul to false Ekaj scam message I am safe. You are receiving this electronic mail because a dangerous anomaly creature has escaped our weak cells and only you can help the contain it again.

Listen carefully and follow instruction: Drink HQ water. Do not stop. Drink until sick. Turn on faucet, leave alone. Danger creature hates water so you flood HQ, you can trust me Nadalia Containment queen real. 

Thirsty, 

— Nadalia Trent, Containment Director

Excerpts from a secure email chain between Bin Folks and Nadalia Trent:

Halloween is our busiest time of year, I'm in the middle of the Himalayas hunting down the "Not-Yeti"— a yeti with the power to reverse time— and the last thing I need right now is for Ekaj to be sowing chaos and confusion at HQ. I got some kind of email from him that's apparently been sent to just about everyone there! It's not even particularly funny! I tried to call him but the Jims tell me he's been locked in his office for days now and I suspect he's snuck another anomaly from containment to aid in his current prank. So, Nadalia, I'm handing this one to you— as director of Containment, you really need to stop letting Ekaj get the best of you. I don't care if he promised to get you that sandwich back, don't release anomalies for Ekaj. Also stop looking for the sandwich, and for the love of god put it back in containment if Ekaj really did get it out for you. The thing was whispering demonic secrets into your ear, and I think it was roast beef which is frankly disgusting.  - Bin Folks, Administrator

I haven't seen Ekaj since he tried to play matchmaker for the peanut butter man and the jelly man last month. This has nothing to do with me and I did not retrieve Hoagie from containment. If Ekaj is involved with an anomaly, it's something from outside the foundation. I will look into it. Also Hoagie is made of better stuff than roast beef, Bin, you owe them an apology. - Nadalia Trent, Containment Director
