They don't seem to have spotted that the second "perplexing" email is a word-for-word quote from Neuromancer. Which is particularly funny given that they managed to figure out the William Gibson reference.
I had to explain to my wife why I was laughing so hard.
Which email are you referring to? None of the phrases in the second email (starting with "The nature of this moniker") appear in any of Gibson's Sprawl trilogy.
They probably just figured out the Tessier-Ashpool reference by Googling it, which would explain why they didn't recognize the passage from Neuromancer.
