Dear friends, our @sebastian just discovered some issue about Lifedrop – the corporation distributing safe water in our cities on behalf of the Gov. We have a recorded phone call from one of Lifedrop’s communications officer and a piece of paper with IT information that might be important. Our @ellie @zeno and @haradin are guessing out solutions from here >> http://atlantisradio.org/lifedrop-leaks
I’ve poor wifi right now, so I hope we can all work together on this issue. Should you be unfamiliar with Lifedrop, just take a look here: http://lifedrop.solutions/

<p style=”text-align: center;”>Hi People,
How about trying to put everyone to solving puzzles, hoping it has a link to the whole mess ?
I just read the blog post about Lifedrop Leaks (http://atlantisradio.org/lifedrop-leaks/). Which links to the note hereunder.
From what I understand, the first numbers are an IP accessible through a FTP server. Seems to work. Any computer geek here capable of confirming ?
Problem being – assuming Dorothy is the login – I didn’t find the password for the moment. It seems there is an officer from Panama Papers who lives nearby a M-plus fast-food in Rome (I guess), and that her phone number is the pass. I am currently researching that but if several of us start (perhaps people in Rome too) perhaps we can solve this faster.</p>
-

Thanks. That makes more sense. I thought the message was recorded in Rome, my bad.
I am having great trouble finding the treads and following them on the Atlantisradio forum unfortunately. Doing my best, but I guess I am not a good enough computer guy… Not mastering one’s tools correctly is always a limit.

Speaking of technology, we figured out that it would be a good idea to send an email to Lifedrop via their Contact page and ask for Dorothy’s number. Do you know how to set up an authentic-looking press email? If the request comes from an anonymous person on the internet, we may end up being ignored. We need to pretend we’re some big-shot journalist, or we need some actual big-shot journalist on our side to pull this off. Any ideas?
-
Guys does any of you know if there is a company producing these “water seer” devices?? It could be LA SVOLTAAA!
-
That is an excellent idea, but they must be swamped with demands.
Trying to be legit is easy :
- Buy an URL which really resembles that of the media/company we are pretending to be (ex : say we pretend to be the New York Times, we can try to buy NYTimes.info). A little brainstorming session should give us ideas.
- We need the e-mail to have a nice header that looks authentic. That is fairly easy.
- The tricky part is to want to call her for something that seems legit and important, otherwise they will send us to her Chief Technology Officer or something like that.
- It could also be we are contacting her for “personal” reasons. If anyone herr is working in an insurance company or in a clinic, it might serve as a cover.
-
Here’s what @exit suggested:
It could just say something like “Some serious information has reached us. Need to talk to Chief Risk Officer as soon as possible, but we need to talk by phone. Cannot risk to write my errand down”.
Maybe that would sound intriguing enough to them to share the number?
-
-
Are you really going to write Lifedrop a note? It looks risky but definitely out-of-the-box. Meanwhile @v-b is still chasing this J.F. Dorothy address deep into the Panama papers! He is our IT person right now.
F. -
https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/41861
This seems to be interesting… it’s a JF Dorothy, and she is connected to a sparkling water company. It’s not directly from Panama Papers, but in the larger database in which Panama Papers are included.
-
-
I mentioned that in the chat before, that I thought it was too coincidental, but it did not really catch on. Glad you found it too, may mean there is more to it than I thought :)

Quick recap: based on Sebastian’s leak http://atlantisradio.org/lifedrop-leaks/ and this note he copied
we need a password to get to some Lifedrop server. The password has something to do with “Dorothy”, the “Panama Papers”, the “officier database”, an “address” which is related to “M-PLUS” and some “fast food nearby”. No clear idea if we need a username or not.I reccommend NOT TO TRY random passwords as the company might check the logs, see some suspicious activity and change their password (or try to trace back the IP of the person that tried to log in their server).
I am not an IT expert (I work with technology but I’m more like in the soft-nerd side of it) so I am kind of hoping someone will join us in this ASAP.
As said in a night chat few days ago and in the comments of the blog post, I see two paths here (one doesn’t exclude the other):
<span style=”color: #008080;”>1 – the Lifedrop Dorothy path</span>
If we just need the Dorothy’s Lifedrop office number we can try and send a pretentious email to the company (through the “contact us” module of their website http://lifedrop.solutions/contact/), asking to talk with Dorothy via telephone because there are important things to discuss and blah blah blah…
We need someone who knows how to write formal letters, like a journalist or a blogger, and try to get the phone number in a non-suspicious way (definitely not my field here).<span style=”color: #800000;”>2 – the Panama papers path
</span><span style=”color: #800000;”>(in interested in helping please join me on this editable notepad → http://piratepad.net/6rgMQ3gMF3 as it may be difficult to perpetuate this kind of research in a forum) </span>
The voice registration talks about the Panama papers, hence Dorothy could be one of these “Dorothy” I found in the Panama papers leaks:
#1 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/12063800
Charlotte Dorothy Van Heerden in South Africa (but with clearly a Netherland-like surname)
No M-PLUS nor fast food near→ Gmap here#2 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/12006419
Dorothy P. Baker, no address#3 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/75060
Lok Teng Teng Dorothy in Singapore, where “M-PLUS” seems to be a local construction company and where a McDonald’s is in the same neighbourhood of the address → Gmap here#4 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/12030202
Dorothy Joanna Maciaga in Australia#5 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/12121256
Dorothy Carol Jackie in Canada → Gmap here#6 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/12163978
Dorothy Tina Chung-Loye in the Seychelles → Gmap hereEDIT:
#7 https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/41861
Dorothy Jane Furness (JF Dorothy) from Hong Kong
As found out by @deep this seems to be our woman.
Gmap streetview, with M-PLUS sing and a phone number hereWe should try this. Definetely.
-
From the street view (←click) found by @deep we see a M-PLUS on the main street and probably there are different fast food takeaways around (there’s a “commercial building” in front of the building linked to Dorothy, may be a sort of a mall).
There is a phone number in a sign on the street, just left to the building linked to our Dorothy.
If my drawing skills are good enough for Google, that’s a Tea House or something. Definitely not her office number, but it can be a fast way to hide a password since Lifedrop agents are everywhere in the world and can’t get to Hong Kong every time they forget a password.
If we want to follow the address striclty, Dorothy is staying at the 6th floor of the big building in 1&3 Chatham Court. On the same building there is this company with another phone number, an office phone number.
~~~
~~~
That’s it for now: two potential phone numbers to be used as passwords.
No idea of which username to use:
– Dorothy
– user
– username
– guest
– admin
– …?
Again: don’t try to access the database until we have the right password. And when the time comes we’ll need to use some anonymous tools. -
-
Don’t know how great a lead that is, but followed the Sparkling Water International Limited to a guy called Anthony James Hatton: https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/nodes/114647
He lives in Hong Kong too, in a place called Villa Pergola. Google Maps shows it’s for sale now. Close to it, just right at the corner, there is a pumping station. There are two phone numbers in the For sale sign. Difficult to read, but not impossible.
Villa Pergola: https://www.google.com/maps/@22.3207183,114.2757407,3a,75y,24.43h,82.83t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s8VY0_p3e2ebFkQCNkLQRwA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!6m1!1e1

Updated the pad V.B. created with two more consistent numbers: M-PLUS’ in Hong Kong and a Turkish fast food in the same building as Dorothy’s.
-
That’s impressive. So phone numbers could be a password? What about the username? Are you all trying them over and over? Any suggestions? Fellow Atlanteans, please help! About log checking by Lifedrop: I guess this is a hard time for everybody, even for IT admins. I think they won’t notice a little bit of “noise” by guessing passwords. Don’t you?
F.That’s it for now: two potential phone numbers to be used as passwords.
No idea of which username to use:
– Dorothy
– user
– username
– guest
– admin
– …?-
I guess you’re right, @Furio. We could guess passwords, we’ve collected a lot of phone numbers to try. They’re all likely to be the password, but what if it is Dorothy’s office number that we need? We need to contact her as soon as possible. Journalist out there, we need your help!
Moreover, the user is the real problem. We have no clue until now. It could be just “Dorothy” for sure. I’m suspicious about that officer DB in the note. It could just mean database-officer, but maybe it’s a hint for the user.

I have tried on an ftp client as well, using the IP 37.139.0.34, with Dorothy as a username, and different phone numbers from the Google Street view. Still no luck. Will try with a different username later, he said during the phonecall that Dorothy was the clue of to day, so that can refer to anything.
I don’t know what to try next, but I will try :)
-
-
comecapiresetitradisce.com ?
Makes no sense.. I guess =/ -
Other data I got:
via a whois query https://whois.domaintools.com/37.139.0.24 we can see that the 37.139.0.x block is registered by “Network operations” with phone number +1(US prefix)3478756044.
Yet other numbers.
I need to sleep now and go to work tomorrow: people at my workplace start to questioning why I spend so much time on their computers… -
Thanks for finding out and the work, all who contributed.
So I did it tonight – connected, logged in and copied everything I found there.
(Sorry, I didn’t fake any IP address from Amsterdam, I just did it from here. If “Dorothy” (V.B.) logged in from Italy a few hours ago and then tried to go back to Amsterdam, it might happen that she got stuck in Switzerland for a while and tried it again.)
I got no warnings or messages when I logged in.Shall I put the documents somewhere for you guys? Where?

*** [file end]Everything can be opened and is readable, with exception of the important thing for us: the “safe lakes” data, for which we need a password.
I wasn’t able to find it out based on the hint yet: “Follow indications in fingerprint for the right password”. My first idea was whether he could somehow refer to the fingerprint that is given at the beginning of the ssh login:
ssh-rsa 2048 b3:71:cd:d3:71:5d:a1:ef:38:5f:69:d2:84:8f:1a:51.
Maybe someone of you wants to try. I really need to sleep now, I soon have to get up again for work. -
Whoa. Amazing work, guys! @Lisa, is it possible to upload the files to an outside place or to a dropbox somewhere and post a link here?
-
-
I put a zip of the data here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/515wtans39tuan6/AADmEger0lH5PUJDOlNQ2Ixza?dl=0
(Of course its only a snapshot. They might change/update the content any time. So we should check again after some time – especially the “safe lakes” data.)
-
-
Yes! Awesome work!
My co worker said yesterday that he could do a lot of extra things for us when he has the login, so please post it here as soon as possible.
Also: let’s get to the bottom of this, but keep our heads: they have known we are onto this for days. So they are either really sloppy or there is some other motive to let us see this.
Be extra careful Lisa!
PS: in the unreadable backup file ~$readme.txt only the word Christine is readable for now, and you are welcome, he says ;)

Greath job @LIsa
I’m scanning the documents right now, searching for some hidden msg or something. “Follow indications in fingerprint for the right password” Maybe they’ve hidden the word fingerprint somewhere?

Great job everyone.
I generated this map by importing the .csv file in the DATABASE folder to show the 4639 lakes.

Ok, folks, it seems to me that we are some people trying to get the right password and who works with those documents in different ways. Can we just start talk here instead of over each others heads? I’m tired of this dubbel-working situations. We all want the same thing, so let us cooperate instead of building some elite team just chatting with each other, leaving the rest behind!
-
Good work @lisa! I must be sincere, I was fearing you were connected to governments and to those who are causing our sufferings, because of your suggestions about not to rebel and to follow governments’ guidelines. Obviously, that’s not the case.
-
I agree partially @SofieLZ. We can talk about the decryption here, but let’s not mention ip addresses or passwords. This forum is open to anyone, including Google.
Oh, BTW, I’m c-man. Zeno asked me to help a bit with the server.
-
@V.B. : I just took the user/pass combination you published on your pad. So the credits belong to you and the guys who helped you finding out (and not to me). I just used them.
So to publish it here:
IP: 37.***.*.**
username: lifedrop
password: 231*****I used WinSCP, with transfer protocol SFTP and portnumber 22, and then transferred the files.
I later realized that I only looked into and copied the content of the lifedrop home directory and that trying to have a look beyond that might give us more information. That’s why I logged in again – this time using PuTTY with SSH (port 22), so I could look around using Linux. (Logging in this way I also got the warning V.B. has mentioned.)
I didn’t find any other home directories, just what seems to be the “normal” directories and files (like system files) you find on a Linux server. It’s tons of them. Downloading and screening them all probably won’t help us. I think the most interesting data for us – water and company data – are the data in the lifedrop home directory. Unless someone wants to sabotage the server or something, but I doubt that would help us. Of course if someone is good in linux hacking, he might try to get more valuable information for us or hack files/directories we don’t see/have access to.
What I tried:
– looking around who else is there. Result: I could only see myself.
– looking for the system log files and trying to delete things connected to my login. Result: I found the files, but wasn’t able (had no rights) to read or delete them.
– looking for “fingerprint” files. Result: I found some “usual” files and one file called fingerprints.txt, but it’s content seems quite old and the people and addresses listed in there do not point to people we know from lifedrop, especially nothing about a ‘Manuel’ to whom the fingerprint hint is addressed.
– some other thingsIf there are ideas what else to do on the server, we might collect them and then we (a better linux hacker than me – I am not one – maybe @Zeno’s co-worker) could give another try. Btw a collegue told me that there are websites where one can easily get and then login through IP addresses from other countries – in order to hide the true location where the login comes from.)
@Zeno: Don’t care about the unreadable ~$readme.txt (and maybe other ~$ files). These are temporary files from myself (I had the readme.txt open when I was creating the zip file). ‘Christine’ is the user I use on my laptop (it’s my middle name).So I think, the most important thing now is to find the password for the “safe lakes” file (I attach it here once again), using the hint we have (“Follow indications in fingerprint for the right password”). Can these help somehow? :
– “Manuel” could maybe be the Chief Communication Officer ‘M. Perez’? (It’s the only name with M. in lifedrop’s officer board.)
– the rsa2 key fingerprint of the server is:
ssh-rsa 2048 b3:71:cd:d3:71:5d:a1:ef:38:5f:69:d2:84:8f:1a:51
– the old fingerprints.txt file from the server (however, I don’t think “Manuel” is thy guy who is able to find that file) -
-
@deep: Thanks for your sincerity. I want to know the truth as much as everyone else here. And I am in for uncovering things that are suspicious about lifedrop – and what has been revealed about them up to now IS very suspicious. Also what I hear from your and some other places makes me worry, and there indeed seems to be governments and authorities that are corrupted.
But I refuse to believe that ALL authorities are corrupted or do not want us to be safe or helped or that all their guidelines are bad. Because I see what authorities do in my country, and at least some of them try really hard and do their best. (Maybe the reason they can do more is because Switzerland is not in the E.U. – I don’t know.) And I also see what happens when people do not follow the guidelines (getting sick, hindering water distribution, violence on the streets,…). And yes, as my university is a federal university, I AM to a certain degree connected to “the government” or authorities – as other people here in this radio are as well. But this does not mean I/we don’t want to help and this crisis to go over. My job is to analyze the water and to try to find out as much as possible about the sources of the disease and hopefully to contribute to find a solution or a cure for it. I don’t know how good our prospects are – and yes, I fear that we are too late (if we do not get information of people who maybe know more). But not doing it definitely doesn’t make it better. And anything that hinders us doing our jobs (like protesters blocking my way to my workplace) makes it worse and costs us valuable time. -
@c-man: Thanks for the hint. I edited my comment to hide parts of the IP address and password now. (They can be found on the picture of the notes paper and in V.B.’s pad, respectively.)
And yes, I meant “Manuel”, not “Martin”, who is mentioned in the README.txt. Sorry, my mistake – I am a bit tired. I corrected it in the comment as well. -
The “safe lakes” zip of lifedrop is decrypted! It’s content is the following (plus I manually added the lake names from the csv database file in double brackets behind the “safe” lakes:

**** [file end] ***So, but PLEASE be not careless with this!!
Do not just run to this lakes and drink the water! This is a file from lifedrop, it is some days old (and we know the contamination spreads fast) and we cannot be sure whether these lakes are really safe or still safe! Furthermore carefully check the corresponding line in the csv file (including exact location in the lake – as some lakes are big and have more then one water station and not all of them are labeled as safe)!But it could be a start for us. Some people could carefully look into the corresponding lines in the datafile. And if we have people near these lakes, they could collect water from there – a sample and a lot for drinking in case we manage to get the sample tested and qualified to be safe. And if we can get it tested, that collected water could be used as drinking water.
Or maybe some of you have other ideas what to do with this information. Just be prudent!So I hope it was not a fatal decision to put this content online… Stay safe!
-
This was very quick: thanks again Lisa!
But as said before by others: it’s amazing AND scaring at the same time.
We have 4 safe lakes in Italy, 1 in Greece, 2 in Spain, 2 in the UK and 2 in Sloavkia.
Just 11 safe lakes over thousands in the main database.Most “safe lakes” in the list are under examination or need another test: we definitely need to check the file some time in the next few days to see if they update that list.
That’s a great way to start a day in this rather horrible world: it’s rare to see people working together to create shared knowledge. Keep safe everyone, and free water!
-
-
Graphical content of the SAFE LAKES file uploaded on date 06/04/2017. We need to check every day or so to see if they updated a new version (with a newer date) of the SAFE LAKES file.

(Sorry for not doing it earlier – it was not possible. I’ll report about what happended and the current situation in the corresponding thread as soon as I can. Here it’s about lifedrop and safe lakes: )
I checked the lifedrop server again today. There was no updated ‘safe lakes’ file. So we have no news about this.
The only thing I found that differed from last time was an ssh-login logfile and some updated history files. I modified those files, meaning I removed the lines that reveal my activities (so they look like they did before I logged in the first time) and I set the time stamp (last modification time) of the files back to the date the files had before. I hope this helps hiding our access and activities on their server a bit.-
We are lucky to have you Lisa! Sounds great that you are able to cover our track and keep looking on them. I hope that the reason why they haven’t updated is because the water still is safe and not because they just haven’t gotten around to do it or they have found out that the site have been compromised. Keep up the great work.
-
-
I’m happy if it can be of any help. I fear the option that they haven’t updated because their new results are the same as the old ones is rather unlikely. I was hoping for some updates of all the lakes that were marked as ‘under examination’ or further tests required’, but this hasn’t happened. I assume the reason is rather that (as you said, @Sam) they just haven’t gotten around to do it (further tests), because getting to places and traveling longer distances have become much more difficult – as we experience it as well. But it is also possible that they stopped updating files on the server because they found out that we were on / have access to it – the virus infection and crash of my laptop could have been more than just accidental… But as long as we still have access to the server, let’s hope, and I will continue checking it.
-
Times are harsh for everyone nowadays, but I remember @SofieLZ had an OCR tool or software like that. Can you use it to find the 10 safe sites on the 145 pages PDF “EXTRACTED 10K72” and then find what was written on the Determinand_HazSubs column?
The fact that Lifedrop is not updating is kind of frustrating, it’s like we’re missing something – but again, we have a lot of things to think about these days…
Any results in the collaborative pad → http://piratepad.net/6rgMQ3gMF3
-
The document takes 22 minutes to search through. I’ve found nothing so far =/ I have no idea what OCR stands for. I’m only working with pictures… and this document includes 145 pages, low graphic. My computer works throught the document as if it were one huge picture, searching for pixels forming the word/s I suggest. It is far from optimal.
-
Ouch, I thought it was almost some magical software you had: I guess the very low quality of this PDF doesn’t help.
Anyway I was just curious to know if there is something strange in the data related to the ten safe lake: can’t you find any code of our safe list? (e.g. IT_LK_20-0039-LA4042-ST01 and IT_LK_20-0073-LA4011-ST01 for the first two Italian lakes/dams)[OCR stands for “optical character recognition”, a software that recognize letters in images, more or less]
-
-
@V.B. : I tried with a free OCR software, but the result was not usable – the quality of the PDF is too bad for that. Maybe a commercial OCR tool gives better results.
However, I looked through the file manually, and I didn’t find any entries for Italian stations at all. So I gave it up and didn’t search for the other ‘safe’ stations anymore. So I assume the file doesn’t give us a clue on why those lakes are/were safe or have something in common.But by the way: Has someone of you been able to collect water of one of the ‘safe’ lakes?
