>>>>>[It has come to my attention that you are in a position to acquire
valuable information. An associate of mine has come to cross digital
paths with a pair calling themselves Jen and Gabe (what seems to be short
for Jenna and Gabriel). The pair seem to be a pair of shadowrunners in
the Seattle area, of some renown if one is to believe them. Conversely,
rumor has it that they are a pair of corporate operatives, if not
braggadocious simpletons who happen to know how to milk the local matrix
for their own amusement. I am in a position to offer considerable funds
in return for the true story of who they are, what they are, and who they
work for.

I place considerable value on my associate and would not like to see any
harm come. As well, I am of a natively curious sort. However, you can
appreciate that certain inquiries, or the depths of certain inquiries can
be beyond the capability (physically or simply legally) of some. Please
reply at your earliest convenience an estimate you would place upon such
an inquiry. Note there can and will be a considerable bonus if the data
was to be more verifiably illuminating or hazardous to you.]<<<<<
