'written by Google Translate using Chinese speakers'

Or absolutely not! We know after Sony / other hacks, that there's quite a bit gamesmanship here. If I was hell-bent on internet extortion I'd ask foreigners in a net cafe / bar to help translate. To deflect attention away from whatever my real heritage / language skills / citizen profile really is... Message would be broken up into innocuous parts first of course....
