Wouldn't you forget the password once your memories are wiped?

That depends on how many of your memories are wiped, or if it's episodic memory versus declarative memory, or if it's recent memories versus long-term memories. Remember, enough of your memories have to still exist for you to understand the message, for the problem to make any sense at all.
