How would the foreignness of the agents be relevant? And why ask that when I’m a thousand times more likely to be hunted down by domestic agents?
It makes it easier, because they themselves are trying to stay below the radar. If domestic agents are coming in 5 minutes I don’t love my odds, although I suppose there’s a chance I could get lucky slipping away.
I would immediately leave and get as far away from my home as possible, since that’s where they’re coming to look for me.
meh. front porch. people coming any distance arent going to not find me in my house
Nice try, agent

I’d hide about a five minutes’ run from my home
There’s a small panel in the ceiling of a small closet in an upstairs bedroom. Open and squeeze through it and I’m in the attic space. Need to use my cell phone flashlight because it’s pitch black up here.
Walk across the joists to the far end and carefully lift away the insulation between the joists.
Use my phone and order a bunch of shit from a bunch of apps to be delivered to my house. Turn off the phone in case the agents can track me with it. Carefully lay on the drywall, distributing my weight across as much of the panel as possible to reduce the risk of breaking through into the room below. Cover myself with the insulation I pulled away earlier.
Now these foreign agents are going to have to find that ceiling panel, climb up in there, search under insulation to find me, wrestle me through that tiny access hole and whisk me away. All the while there are Uber drivers and pizza delivery guys showing up. And that’s all suspicious as fuck, so someone’s going to call the cops before long. If these are foreign agents, they probably don’t want to deal with law enforcement.
So I figure I need to hide under that insulation for maybe twenty minutes before shit starts getting crazy.
Just out the back, let them fight the roos, drop bears and suger gliders to get to me. I might not even hide just be like, if you get this far in Il come willingly
I wouldn’t hide I’d ambush them and call every police force etc I could think of.
I don’t think anything else is really a sensible option except trying to cover as much distance in 5 min as possible and again calling every one who could potentially help.
Grab my always packed camping pack and rifle case + ammunition, get in car, drive to airport, call 911 on the way and inform them that armed individuals are breaking into my house providing the address and hang up immediately, park car at airport parking lot and pay with card, take taxi back into city with cash, get bus ticket with cash which takes me out to the woods/mountains, camp there until I can’t.
It would also be wise to immediately book a one way ticket to anywhere on the way to the airport and then not use it.
Even if they have access to my payment details, the last things they would see are parking for the airport and buying a plane ticket.
They would need access to the airports CCTV to determine that I did not actually board the flight.
If they had access to this, and were able to get access to the city CCTV as well, the best they could possibly determine after many hours or days is that I was last seen taking a bus west.

Hmmm, no they can just ask the airline. They keep track of who boarded and that information is not protected or privileged at all
I’d give you kudos for the creativity, this would make a great scene in a Jack Reacher episode as long as the plot moves on so the audience doesn’t have to time to linger on it
I would agree if it were domestic agents, but if airlines will comply if a foreign agent just asks for it, then that is somewhat concerning since its a multinational corporation freely handing over information on private individuals to authorities that don’t have local jurisdiction without so much as a warrant.
Like unless the foreign agents are working in cooperation with the local government, I don’t think for example, an agent of CSIS could walk into an airport in Tokyo and just ask them where Marcus D. Walton flew to or to see their security tapes and expect to get an answer from Japan Airlines without a shit load of red tape.
More likely, that would get them arrested and questioned as to why they’re conducting an illegal investigation of a private individual on foreign soil and probably be seen as an international incident creating a lot of friction between the two nations.
I expect you probably missed that the question denotes foreign agents so no worries.
But then why buy the ticket at all? How are foreign agents going to get your credit card purchase? Just leaving the car in the airport should be enough

You are right on that, I read “agents” and missed the foreign part

This is an excellent point and someone else also pointed out that it wouldn’t be necessary.
Into the forest/mountain that is literally right outside my house. Harsh terrain that foreign agents won’t be able to traverse easily without local knowledge. With a five minute head start they’d have no way of finding me without dogs and helicopters. And even they would have difficulty navigating the terrain and local weather conditions.
Probably wherever there are domestic agents.
I’m not actually sure I’d trust the local police to not get outwitted. Spies are very good at forging things and impersonating people, and they have no reason to believe I’m an actual target and not just a crazy person.
I would get one of those cheap masks. The one with glasses, plastic nose, and the fake mustache.
No one is going to find me.
In the woods behind my house. Thick enough to give pause to most
If I had one, inside the septic tank with a snorkel.
Just as a cautionary warning, but the gases in there could kill you
Now you’ve ruined their weekend plans
Also I’m just giggling at the kind advice you’ve given just in case anyone was considering snorkeling in a vat of human excrement.
Jackass did it, and they gave the usual “don’t try this” disclaimer as well
And if they don’t, you’ll wish they had.
Pick a direction completely at random, move into it, don’t stop or give away my location until it’s resolved. They can ransack the surrounding area pretty good, but they’re specifically foreign so they’re also being hunted as they’re hunting me, and even domestic agents have been known to lose somebody on the run.
