The Dark Knight Jim Gordon Email

[Why So Serious?]

Hey guys got the email as well, and replied. I was thinking about the line "Overheard conversations, suspicions of stores you frequent, etc", I know its meta-game thinking but maybe there is some sort of product placement thing with a company. I.e. lets just say Dominoes just cause they have used them in the past. You go to dominoes to get your gotham city pizza (Yumm) and they say a clue or something. I know its a stretc but hey I am just trying to think. Because like I said that line really dosen't sit well wit me.

This has nothing to do with Dominos.

Dominos employees have no idea what the hell is even going on at this point.

The chances that they'd have any idea what the hell any of this Viral stuff is about are slim to none.

 

[Nodwarves4u]

that's what i thought, but that would be a bit much without a specific place to look.

however... there's plenty of forums, and bloggers.. and... you... people.. *narrows eyes, moves further away* you're all dirty, filthy money launderers, ain'choo?

You'll nevah catch me ya' dirty coppa's! Lol. Maybe we don't have a specific place to look right now, but in the near future they may announce some sort of coporate partnership that will catch our eye.

[Thorss]

Gee.... Didn't I already mention that place?? Now you're getting somewhere.



Nope.

Hey man, if you have all of the answers, why don't you start providing some?

Dominos?t:

I hope not just because of the l;ack of organization in the last game.

 

[Dark Jaguar]

I hope not just because of the l;ack of organization in the last game.

well, they are, actually having another promotion. this one... more dominos. less 42E.

however...
I'm going back to digging around...
There's money... and it's going somewhere...
and I'm going to find it.

 

[Majic Walrus]

What? Seriously?.. the Hippos made more sense.

I assume they're doing that. They've done everything else.

In other news I looked over the secure internal documents on the wiki and found zilch.

 

[Dark Jaguar]

So I was following the money...

And I realized something... I think GNB did change...

Credit card and bank account security

• Report lost or stolen cards and checks immediately.
• Review account statements carefully. By regularly checking your balances and other account activity, especially online, you can more quickly detect and stop fraudulent activity.
• Ask about suspicious charges. Do not hesitate to contact Gotham National Bank or your credit card issuer if you see questionable charges.
• Cancel and cut up unused credit and other cards. If you have an open account that you no longer use, call the creditor to cancel it and cut up the card before throwing it out. Follow the same procedure for unused or expired cards of all types, including expired Gotham National check cards.
• Keep your ATM password secure. Do not use obvious or easily obtainable information (such as your birth date) for your password. Never share your password and avoid writing it down.
• Be aware of your surroundings and exercise caution when using an ATM. Using common sense will make your transactions safer.
• Limit personal information on checks. Do not have excess personal information, such as your driver's license number or Social Security number, printed on your checks.
• Store new and cancelled checks safely. And only carry your checkbook with you when necessary.
• Use tamper-resistant checks. Gotham National checks include many safety features such as tamper-resistant packaging and chemically sensitive paper to deter alterations.

Credit card and bank account security



• Immediately report lost or stolen cards and checks.
• Check statements carefully. Check for charges you don't recognize. Many times fraud begins with
a small amount, $9.99, to confirm the account is open and see if the account holder notices.
• If a charge seems suspicious, contact Gotham National Bank or your credit card issuer immediately.
We can check instantly.
• If you have bank accounts or credit cards you no long use, cancel the account. Do not throw out
credit cards or expired Gotham National check cards without cutting them up.
• One of the most common ways that accounts are illegally accessed is when customers tell someone
their password or write it in their card.
• Don't use your birth date for your password.
• Do not use an ATM where you do not feel safe. Often an area that is perfectly safe by day, when
people are working or shopping, may be less safe at night, when there are fewer people around.
• It may seem convenient to have your social security number or driver's license number on a check,
but you are in effect hading personal information to any clerk or business who handles that check.
Don't have your checks printed with personal information.

What does it all mean?

What does it all mean?

that the banana stands are controlled by the banks. because the banks have all the money. god, i can't stand banana stands.

All I know is we have obviously been sent this email to direct us towards the attention of what has been mentioned in the email, we're on the right track with our ideas of Rossi and checking into the GNB I'd think... other than where we're heading now i'm not sure if there's anything specifically referenced in the email that we can use to our advantage in proceeding with this information.. which is why it's always good to think outside the box too, and think about loose connections. Not saying we should focus our energy completely on connections that don't seem directly evident, but it's always good to keep them in mind. If anything, I think this email could signify an upcoming event that we must be aware of, but again i'm not sure. I love the element of surprise, haha

 

[Terry]

I recieved this email too. Very confusing.

 

[Why So Serious?]

Hey man, if you have all of the answers, why don't you start providing some?

.....

I think gotham national bank has something to do with this.....

http://www.rossisdelicatessen.com/default.htm

???

that's the only site that remotely resembles a bistro.

We need to find out who this guy from "Western" is. Gordon's buddy.

As of one hour ago, Betty's was a dead end.

I think I've come up with enough for one day. But hey, feel free to contribute before you start giving me crap.

you guessed.

my 6yo nephew could've made those assumptive leaps of knowledge.

 

[Majic Walrus]

Hey I know you both pissed each other off but let's get back to thinking about the leads we've got and what we can find out.

Dark Jaguar get your nephew.

 

[MissionBond92]

i think this e-mail is just setting us up for something else probably something about "iceman" q:

 

[Ekricket]

No, but it does end up sparing a bus for a bank job...
I was wondering HOW he got the Dist. 22 school bus. . .

He stole the key to the bus barn, key # 685, from the evidence locker, back in the Pair of Jokers Game.

To all MCU personnel,
With the probe into money laundering operations of the Gotham mobs well underway, I wanted to thank you for all your hard work and ask you all to keep your eyes open.
We all know that the mob can be quite ingenious when it comes to money laundering schemes. MCU must be just as ingenious in trying to root these schemes out.
Please, in your everyday life – as well as your work on the job – keep a lookout for anything out of the ordinary that may signal a money laundering scheme. Overheard conversations, suspicions of stores you frequent, etc. Everything is fodder for this critical investigation.
If you have any leads, tips, or information that can help the Major Crimes Unit crack this murky network of banks, businesses, and the people who run them, do not hesitate to contact me.
Thanks.
Jim

Money laundering - I tell ya, it is dry cleaning. Like www.GothamDryCleaners.com

Overheard conversations - sounds like wiretap stuff again. Were there any loose ends from the wiretaps that were never followed up on? Or phone messages between Garcetti, Rossi, Candolero, and Notaro?

A favorite way for organized crime to launder money is through televangelists - donate large sums of money to them to build buildings, then use the mobs construction firms to build them and overbill like hell on the cheapest materials possible. Keeps the thugs employed when there are no kneecaps to break, and washes the money into their legitimate construction business.

I'm not able to get anything at www.gothamdrycleaners.com is that an active site?

Hey I got this email at 12:53 this afternoon (PST). I semi-participated in the Operation Slipknot (my email was part of the mass email), but I did not do anything.

I have the email though. This makes me wonder... why did I get it, unlike the other people who have participated much more than I.

Agreed. This viral has gotten very ??? as of late.

 

[Spider-Dan]

I got the email, and a theory as well. On page 4 of the Gotham times (issue 3) there is an article about the Gotham Girl Guides who raised over $200,000 by selling cookies, even though they were robbed by "thieves in clown masks." Sound suspicious to anyone else? It would be a good front...

 

[Verdammt]

i think this e-mail is just setting us up for something else probably something about "iceman" q:

Iceman, huh? Maybe this is going to tie into Another 48 Hours. I mean Nick Nolte does look like the Joker nowadays.

Back on topic: Is the email still showing up? I haven't got it yet.
