Washington D.C. - The computer hackers known as the l33t h4x0rs
have escaped capture from the FBI by using what may be the most sophisticated
encryption technology yet developed. FBI investigators have
brought in the NSA and their group of cryptography experts to try
to uncover the secrets of the l33t h4x0rs.
The l33t h4x0rs are wanted in connection with the defacement of
a fan site for
the 80's rock band Nelson and a Dukes
of Hazzard tribute site. "The sites were hacked beyond
recognition. It appears they have set up the Dukes of Hazzard
site as some type of home base," said FBI agent Dwayne Johnson, "Until
their code is cracked, these menaces will remain on the street and
no site will be safe from their hacking skills."
NSA codebreaker John McClane said, "We've never seen a code
quite this intricate. The mixture of numbers, letters and
symbols make this very difficult to crack. These guys are
using some complex algorithms, possibly developed by the Israelis
or Russians."
Here is a small sample of what they are trying to decode:
w3 ar3 l33t h4x0rs. J00 FB1 guy5 w1ll n3v3r c4+ch u5. J00
ar3 n0+ k3w1 3n0ugh. 0ur h4x0r1ng w1ll d35troy j00. pH34r
u5.
"We've gotten really close to nabbing these guys several times," said
Agent Johnson, "but each time they've eluded our grasp, either
by using their secret code to cover their tracks, or by
posting notices on their sites such as 'If you are a member of a
government agency you must leave now.' These guys are clever."
