RE: Industrial espionage (revisited 2)8 Oct 2024 15:35
On Thursday I spoke to my mate he lives at the end of the metro to the North of Perth.
I asked him to got to Hungry Jacks and stake out and report on the movements at no' 500 and 502 across the road.
The problem is he went to the wrong Hungry Jacks and he reported that they was no no 500 etc across the road. The problem is he just does not listen, so unbeknown to me he decided Saturday to stake out from the correct Hungry Jacks.
And I now surprised have a report back, the lights we on on level 5 of 500 and level 3 of 502 when he got there, not much activity are most of the day. Early afternoon there were deliveries to both building by the same company delivered to both and parked on HJ's car park.
He could not understand what was delivered but the boxes were not very big and he could see circles on one and lines on the other.
About lunch time a group from one of the offices cam over and collected a takeaway, he over heard the gofer, chatting to his mate that he hopes the deal is done as he has a date tomorrow, and then he was telling his mate about the girl, he said something it seemed in relation to the girl about WA being a great land, and my mate took this as about girls in general.
About5 the lights at no 500 went out, 502 still seemed to be working not long after words about 5 very senior looking men , 2 other men and 2 women came out of no 502. The picked a table three tables away from my man, they all sat down and the two younger men took the details and then when and order the meal, the man that seemed to lead who he though was named Barny, passed over a card to pay for the order, my mate said he looked like he could handle himself.
While awaiting the food coming it was clear they had had a busy few days, it was also clear from the chat that something had been going back and forward to try and succeed in doing some deal or other, and they though they had it over the line. One of the women they called 'Why' he heard her clear say some thing like 'I've gone over it with a fine tooth comb' and a man they called 'SD' was saying how hard every body had worked they would have to return on Sunday to just finish it off and then it sounded like it would be 'NEW'. They seemed to be saying someone had a lot of xxx, he things they said gold, he could not understand, but at the distance and with the general noise he could not be sure . He did notice that they all seemed very well off even though they were in casual clothes the cut of them set them apart from the normal for Hungry Jacks, and some had watches that stood out as valuable.
