Hi Guys

Ever fancied having a crack at joining Britain’s elite cyber spies? Well now is your chance.

But for all those wanting to become a spy there is a mind-boggling puzzle that has been posted online by GCHQ, the Government’s top secret listening centre.

Entitled ‘Can You Find It?’, the brain-teaser consists of 29 blocks of five letters which candidates have to decipher into five answers.


An online puzzle set by GCHQ, the top secret listening post, is aimed at finding the next-generation of code-breakers




The answers then lead the applicant to an online ‘treasure hunt’ which hopefuls have six weeks to complete.


This is the code to break


AWVLI QIQVT QOSQO ELGCV IIQWD LCUQE EOENN WWOAO
LTDNU QTGAW TSMDO QTLAO QSDCH PQQIQ DQQTQ OOTUD
BNIQH BHHTD UTEET FDUEA UMORE SQEQE MLTME TIREC
LICAI QATUN QRALT ENEIN RKG


And then the hunt can start

Linky to code page

So ATS the challenge is on, The winner gets absolutely nothing apart from a star from me and the honour of being the first to cross line.

Enjoy

Cody

It translates to:

"Hello There! If you are reading this, you are a genius! Stay very still and do not move. We are outside by now and will be entering in a moment. Please, for everyone's safety. Don't resist. This won't hurt a bit!"

Errr.. WAIT a second! .......(sounds of a rabbit struggling and being carried off by many men).....

Who in their right mind would want to help their government spy on innocent citizens. I say # them and their stupid puzzles. Just my 2 cents.

If I had intended it as a job advert I would have posted the link to the daily mail

As it was just a bit of fun for members to play with I chose not to.

Duh

This is ATS

Not a job centre

Feel free to get a sense of humour from the gift shop ...................... they're on special

No, I didn't cheat! I used google.


Looks like I'm 20% done with their big challenge. Answer #5 is "secured". No code breaking required.

some people are very good at using the vanity and ambition of others to control them. If you can solve it screw GCHQ- or whatever its called and work for yourself.

Your talent will take you further if you don't put a governor on it.
