That physical clues were distributed worldwide indicates there might be a little more to the story. Wikipedia lists the locations as

Annapolis, Maryland / Chino, California / Columbus, Georgia / Erskineville, Australia / Fayetteville, Arkansas / Granada, Spain / Greenville, Texas / Haleiwa, Hawaii / Little Rock, Arkansas / Miami, Florida / Moscow, Russia / New Orleans, Louisiana / Okinawa, Japan / Paris, France / Portland, Oregon / Seattle, Washington / Seoul, South Korea / Warsaw, Poland

I hadn't heard about this, does anybody have links to some of the original forum threads/puzzles?

How would that disprove anything? Can people from Poland not use 4chan?

I would have thought that makes it more likely to be from 4chan folks - no intelligence agency or think tank would recruit that broadly.
