It would be fair to say, you are a pretty bright guy. All your life, you've always found school to be pretty easy. You never really had to study for any tests, as once you'd learnt it once it just stuck with you. Once you'd finished with school, you went off to MIT to study engineering. It was never something you really wanted to do, but it made your parents happy, and it was a good qualification.
All your life, gaming has been your go to source of fun. Something about it always seemed to interest you. While other kids worked hard to get their grades, you spent most of your time online, playing competitive games on your pc. You got pretty good in fact. You thought what better way to try and make a living off of gaming than by streaming. It made perfect sense. You were never really good enough to go pro in any games, but you had the free time now that you left MIT, and your parents were okay with you staying with them while you looked for a job.
The first few months were very rocky,
but they were for everybody right? No one becomes famous straight off of the bat. But steadily over time, you started to get people watching your streams. You played Valorant mainly, as that seemed to be a good game at the moment. Young enough to still be a good game to get into, plus the community was still on the rise.
By around 6 months, you started to hit triple figure viewers, which was insane to think about for you. You found this to be more of an achievement than your qualifications from MIT. you were beginning to make a little bit of income, and your parents were proud in a -not really knowing what streaming was - kind of way.
One day, after a Valorant stream, you went to check through some of your emails. You did this from time to time, just to make sure you don't miss anything important. One email, as you scrolled on down, caught your eye. The title simply read, 'CLASSIFIED, DO NOT SHARE.'
What's this? Why didn't my spam folder do anything about this, it's obviously a scam.
Despite better judgement, you decided to open the email. After all, it was always funny to see what creative way people were scamming. The contents of the email however, caught you off guard:
Hello, my name is Agent Q, of a company I will not share with you at this current time. We have contacted you because you fit a very specific criteria for people we believe to be a great fit for our company.
Just reading this makes me laugh. It's always the same. I am 'The perfect fit'. What are they going to ask me next, whether or not I am willing to send them gold or give them by bitcoin account.
Being a highly educated man, graduating from MIT this year, and an up and coming online influencer, we believe you to be a perfect choice for us.
Wait, how does the email know I went to MIT? I don't remember using this email for anything but streaming. But I guess cookies and internet history is tracked and monitored in the background all the time anyway.
We will be posting a letter to you shortly with the details, and a means of contacting us will be provided. Hope you make the right choice.
That was a weird email. It didn't even try and bait me with a link or anything. Well anyway, i'm goin-
"Big shot streamer?" your Mom shouted from the bottom of the stairs.
The thought of that weird email brisky faded away, "Yes Mom?" you called back.
"You've got post," She replied, you had made your way to the top of the stairs and looked down at her.
"Post?"
"Yes, just came through the letterbox now. Never known post to be delivered this late before."
Your heart jumped in your chest a second. The words, ' We will be posting a letter shortly' quickly shot back through your mind. There is now way, right?
