Maybe the picture is just referring to Hermeticism, The first thing that came into my mind when i saw the username of the person who gave it and the picture was the reference from Hermeticism "As Above, So Below.", due to the fact if you print it out, bend it on the middle from the short side it's almost identical. So my guess on the answer would be "As Above, So Below."

I'm pretty sure I'm speaking for myself, but I'd like to see OP open the file. Don't show the password, just ctrl+v the password into the password prompt and drag the file into a folder. Simply to prove that we aren't on a wild goose chase for a 5 (6 technically) character password. That's what EVERYONE is stuck on. We're all stuck on the password. I want to see that the file can indeed be opened. I'd also like the .rar file to have its checksum compared to everything that we currently have to verify that the rar file in the video isn't some modified version.
If we're looking for a 40 character password for a rar file, that's SOOOOO much different than a 6 character password. You're on HackForums; people are going to say "oo a puzzle with a password protected rar file? Let me bruteforce that." I want to know that I'm not wasting my time, wearing my GPU, and consuming unnecessary power.
Moving on in life in such a way that doesn't include HF. HF allowed me to get into the security field and peaked my interest: I appreciate everyone's time, effort, and encouragement. If for some reason you have a means to message me outside HF, feel free to, but I won't be coming back.

I'd also like the .rar file to have its checksum compared to everything that we currently have to verify that the rar file in the video isn't some modified version. Would be nice as at this point (tried a list of all 5 character place names within a large radius of Egypt/Greece, with the suffix ▲ - I still have nothing) The passphrase is 100% not a number permutation like 11111▲ - it can be a number combination with letters. The passphrase is 100% not a lower case permutation like aaaaa▲ - it can be a combination of lower case with uppercase and or numbers. I don't believe it is symbols from the American US keyboard such as ?/>.<▲ and highly doubt it contains symbols. It could possibly have greek characters or other ascii symbols such as ▲ in the password such as ▲1abA▲ I would almost put money on the fact it is something such as this Place▲ With the first letter being capitalized and ending with ▲ It could also be fully in caps.

Huh no this puzzle (photo) got a rar file hidden in that image. Mr. Robot extracted the rar file from the image and it's got a 5 character password with the illuminati triangle as end symbol. I tried almost every combination I could think of, without success. I guess I'll leave it up to the rest to get this solved. Don't believe I'll ever crack the password manually faster than others by bruteforce 🤝

We have some clues/hints posted throughout the thread by the OP around the words "key" and "geometry" however I am unable to find anything using brain power alone. https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?ti...id52266647 I won't give out any details confirming or denying letter or number ranges, but I will say that nobody has found the 'key' to this puzzle yet. https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?ti...id52259234 Well, think about it this way, how are the four animals related to the geometric figures? How might you distill that into a password? That last post "relation of 4 animals to 4 geometric figures" to me says each of these represent a character in the password however 4 correlations doesn't = 5 characters. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I read the 'key' part yesterday haha I even tried that as a password (thought it might be a hidden clue which was made "public" without telling it is. 'key'▲ = not the password I tried Pi (the number 314.... even with a dot between the 3 and the 1 without result). Futher, about the geometric figures that could be anything. Perhaps something like a pentagon (with 5 sides) if we can crack these animals into "words" or meanings. Anyway, I honestly think that I'm "too stupid" to crack this password. I'm thinking way to much about things that (apparently) are wrong / disclosed by other members who are many steps ahead of me. I honestly want to join the Illuminati group, yet I don't think that neglecting my projects / work will benefit me, when I'm spending more time at this puzzle than my money "projects" / work. I'll think along, but I won't investigate this too much. Money comes first, then a HQ group to join. I don't think cracking my head for days (perhaps weeks, who knows what this will lead too) without focussing at my work, will be any beneficial for me on the long term. If I got time left today (except work, project & going out for dinner) I'll do my best to get this solved as well 🤝 @Mr. Robot @All who helped me Thank you so much for putting your time into teaching me things. I won't forget them, so it wasn't a waste of your time. Thanks again and may the best (smartest, luckiest, whatever) member win ✌ P.S. Could the triangle shape on the image got something to do with the pass? I just figured out (noticed) that the Triangle in the image is 5x itself. But again... here comes my language barrier and I can't express exactly what I mean to say with this. I'll do it fast with paint:

And I thought the last (6th) caracter had to be the △ 🤝 Anyway. I said before that I'm not "smart" enough to break this password without bruteforce. (Not going to quote myself) but please read my whole comment, before you tell me I'm wrong. Because I already assumed I was wrong, just posted an idea of what COULD be. 🤝 EDITED: @Mr. Robot: Do you think (btw) that the triangle should be: △ or ▲?

I like where your head is at but maybe it has something to do with shape names or angles as the 5 characters?

I got no idea about the shape or angles that you're suggesting to think about, because I really need to focus at other things today. Yet I really like to think "creative" so please keep us up-to-date.🤝 |
