dude.. special effects can get you any where these days...
so to answer you question: How did he get there?

I'm thinking ILM and Lucas helped him. Green screens or blue screens can take you there.

This is his Server room.. thats ridiculous...

Who knows his Cisco cert also might be a craft of the Photoshop.

Masters in Cyber Crime should be called Cyber Crime Masters.

i wonder what the actual back (the one that they cropped) looked like.

rxs,

Vampire MV said...

EyThiMeeThi said...

heheheheh...nice one

Anonymous said...

wadde ...he is the one and only cisco certified security expert ..nomatter wat the hell is on the bground..be proud of him..u are not even worth to eat his shit

Xenu said...

To "anonymous" right above this comment,

Waddey isnt talking about the person in this image. He is emphasising plagiarism, typos and the misleading text (e.g. his server room while it really belongs to 1and1.com).

use your anonymous brain!

Anonymous said...

hah. i wonder if he knows any networking. most of the cops i went for cisco certification with doesnt know jackshit about networking.

bouche said...

waddey, that dude ... hes 'HAMMET' or some dude during those IRC days ei ??

Gaanagaa said...

Mr Anonymous (between EyThiMeeThi and Xenu),

The guy in this picture is not what I was focusing on. And I am not ready to eat anyone's shit :P, but what I wanted to emphasize was the fact that our Police does have some record of plagiarizing other's work. I could have ignored if this was the work from an individual.

As RXS highlighted they have previously stolen pics from Wikipedia.

I don't care who he is, whether he has CCIE, MBBS or UNDP he is still in front of a stolen photo.

fizan said...

Oh great. Thanks to you blabbermouths we are gonna have a sh*tload of dead bodies floating around in our harbor - nice knowing y'all.

(And incidentally, MDP is gonna have a ball blaming it all on the fuzz, who turns out didn't have anything to do with all the soggy corpses)

I could have sworn the ad in question was featured on the frontpage of police.gov.mv.

PlasticBag said...

I've been to that room.
Its Galolhu Sahara Mortuary.

PlasticBag said...

A forum post by the Cisco expert in the ad.

Typos said...

how many adds in Maldives are crafted from authorized pictures? dudes its an add! why dont u guys look at the bright picture of it?
he is MCSA: Security, MCSE:Security, CCNA,CCNP,CCSP, Security+

and Maldives Police got him there...isn't that enough ?

kukulhu said...

"Never judge a book by its Cover" ads has i hidden meaning try to think of it, thats what the ad is saying of course not with adobephotoshop do you think you can do Cisco certifications or Microsoft Certifications in Adobephotoshop you cant, but you can make a FAKE copy of the certificate which in the end would have result in much more humiliation.... so think about it he the real thing hes GENUINE

Xenu said...

Yes you cant do CISCO or Microsoft Certification with Adobe® Photoshop®. However, you CAN do CCSE with the said software.


If you still dont get it... there is no such certification as CCSE by CISCO.

kukulhu said...

i believe you all know so much about these certifications, how well they are accepted world wide if he apply to any place even "I&I Internet,Inc" they will happily take him, in the end the server room will be his...u know

PlasticBag said...

what if all his certification were Photoshopped as Asoa said.

kukulhu said...

That is a big what if dhoa.... what about the cards they issue with every certificate and the code they give for every person that gets certified....in the end that server room maybe his.. who knows

Anonymous said...

He’s not a guy like choppey who failed in Maths in CompDiploma. and he is also not incompetent like him to downgrade from a sys administrator (wataniya) to a salesman @ marketing...oh! and what happened to the wataniya ad which was plagiarized ...hey tell us about it...we like to smell the shit on yr ass as well

Anonymous said...

hey not only failed in maths...could not finish is diploma..But hes a known programer and a security expert....on what...hehheh...

subcorpus said...

yeah ...
its kinda unkewl when the our own police service does osmething like this eh ...
but ... hey ... its just an ad to get more IT people ...
guess it'll get better ...
sheesh ...

PlasticBag said...

He is a Cisco Certified network engineer: He can never be, there is nothing like a CCNE in Cisco.
He is SuccessfulL: Yeah, any Golhaa is success full. Need more ashtrays on the table though.
THIS IS HIS SERVER ROOM: Give me a break. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

primary0 said...

balaaeh mee. the cop guys did that ad and so what? it was a design mistake they made, so what eh? now all you idiots (no serious offence though) are blabbering out dragging all political crap golhabo isthuifa bullshit into this. kon kameh mee dhen? it wasnt maumoon who did that ad.. even if he did who cares? whoever did it im sure he wont bother to do it again and the guy must have been under fire from HIS bosses or even have his career or job on the line, is that enough for you all? you want the ad designer out on the road so u can chew on his flesh?

Hammett said...

Hello guys,
Thank you very much for spending your precious time criticizing the advertisement. I’m sure that Maldives Police Service would be glad to modify it, based on your opinions. You guys should believe that even the Cops are humans… “HUMANS DO MAKE MISTAKES”…. I just love your critics… I’m sure nothing here is personal.
By the way, Cisco Certified Network Engineer doesn’t refer to a certification.

Thanx and Regards,
-Hammett-

Lesson learnt on both sides. Better stop calling names and get certified. As many already know by now its a highly paid job and a service to your country.

In the end didn't you all find out that Hemmett is the person next door and probably maybe the designer might be none other than our friend. Its a small country, lets work together to fill out the gaps.

kukulhu said...

We should critisize that is one way to improve ourselfs but the way it started that was the mistake anyways i lesson learnt today is one less lesson to study for tomorow
