Three codes are hidden in the alt texts of the OLW’s Global Portal Survey post on Investigate.Ingress
[1] ie.oqyg,wbyu;,yqieplei
[2] xevifwdsxisurebsczeninothgierq
[3] uavavhd7ksex34p2
Code #1
Observations
Letters mixed with .,; hint to the keyboard layout being involved.
Repetition of ‘ie’ in the proper places of the format, if digits are abbreviated by 2 letters.
Replace each letter with the one on the ‘opposite side’ of the row on a QWERTY keyboard.
(So q swaps with p, w with o, a with l, et cetera.) eixwpthcontractpeiqsie
Replace abbreviations by digits in the proper places: 8xpw3contractp8q6e
Code #2
Observations
We can make out several digits written backwards.
Let’s reverse the string and replace the numbers and see where that takes us: qreightoninezcsberusixsdwfivex qr8o9zcsberu6sdw5x
This looks like it needs rearrangement, we also can spot almost a keyword in the middle.
A good split would be rows of 3: qr8 o9z csb eru 6sd w5x
Almost there, just read out rows backwards: 8rqz9obscureds6x5w
Code #3
Observations
4 digits and mostly common letters indicate a simple rearrangement.
Arrange in rows of 4: uava vhd7 ksex 34p2
Read out columns from bottom to top and left to right: 3kvu4shapedv2x7a
