Mortis.com was a single-page website designed with two-tone colors in mind. This site has been around since 1997, November 14th.The website was first discovered by a 4chan user who was curious about an unknown website that host terabytes of data on its server. The number of document hosted on the sites were also tremendous, with one of the largest was 39 gigabytes in size.

As more and more people tried to crack the page and get to the bottom of Tom's website, they were met with futility. That until the enthusiasm for the site rose, and someone claiming to be Tom Ling finally showed up and explained to the sleuths that the website was hosting wedding photographs and nothing more. Tom claimed to be a digital media designer, owned the number of websites people were questioning, and stored all the data in a server in Philadelphia.But when the 4chan investigators asked him for more proof, the so-called Tom Ling stopped replying.

Thomas Ling Shows Up

Again fueled by curiosity, people on the internet started digging deeper, and found that the site's code had a media player embedded, suggesting that the site was being utilized to have motion pictures.Then according to a post from a site archiving 4chan, the Mortis website had numerous email accounts registered on its server, with names like Igor, Mortis, Blair, Child of Chaos, and some others.

This was until the FBI got involved, users stopped investigating and the website was taken down. According to another source, the FBI had nothing to do with the site, and it was Tom Ling himself who put the site offline.

And Then The Site Was Taken Down

What's more, Mortis.com was discovered in the late 1990s, at a time where people use dial-up internet connection. Whether Tom Ling was lying or not, uploading gigabytes of data to the internet was not an easy task. Speculations concluded that either Tom Ling paid a lot of money for that to happen, or had direct access to the server.

What's more, it was also found that Mortis.com can be linked to a dental firm, a prominent lawyer, a remote part of the Washington state, and a security company that in turn has connections to a video sharing group on Usenet, the predecessor of the World Wide Web.But after tracing their physical addresses, they were actually empty lots and empty warehouses.This made Mortis.com again a mystery because speculation made investigators to conclude that the Tom Ling from Australia was lying, and he is not the real Tom Ling from Mortis.com.

Based on curiosity, 4chan users turned to investigate, and connected the site to someone called Thomas 'Tom' Ling. When the name was further investigated, it turned out that the person owned other websites that are also mysterious. Besides Mortis.com and Cthulhu.net, more than twelve different sites were connected Tom Ling.
