[ WP ] Email recall - that thing that never works takes an unexpected turn

People always use the term'Hackers'. I hate that term, it evokes some abstract mental image of two or three kids playing with networking scripts to play mayhem with corporate communications. This was not that. 
 
 Real hacking is organized, it has a goal and a certain corporate culture. The Russian mafia was running rooms full of young guys. Payed well, determined to get their piece of the pie no matter how. Damn the rules, the cash is what matters. 
 
 I found it hard to believe that a guy smart enough to gather the funds this guy had would be dumb enough to actually try and monetize this thing. The image was simple enough, the colors were important, the wrong colors and it simply looked like a mandala with some very unique angles. That's how he was able to show it around and get funding. Proving the negative; that people really could not remember things sent to them immediately associated with this image. That must have been hard, yet here we are. 
 
 When the real hackers got it, that was when the big problems started. Lots of money disappeared or was missed out on. People actually died because of this thing...
