Agents of the Conspiracy believe this to be true. The paranormal phenomenon we have seen could be fallout from genetic engineering experiments conducted on the public by the Conspiracy. The Project seems to involve collecting DNA samples from most humans and the collection of human eggs to create clones. The Project might involve the cloning of most of the human race. The reason for this is unknown.
Evidence points to the latter.
The reason for their existence is unknown. The abductions we have seen are beyond human capability, but The Conspiracy is obtaining egg cells from abducted women. They are definitely related. Ya got me. The Conspiracy's evil plans may involve wiping the Earth clean by using smallpox-carrying killer bees.
