Subject: my proposal to you
My name is John beat a member of Independent Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP), Switzerland. ICEP
is charged with the responsibility of finding bank accounts in Switzerland belonging to non-Swiss
indigenes, which have remained dormant since World War II.
It may interest you to know that in July of 1997, the Swiss Banker's Association published a list of dormant
accounts originally opened by non-Swiss citizens. These accounts had been dormant since the end of World
War II (May 9, 1945). Most belonged to Holocaust victims.
The continuing efforts of the Independent Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP) have since resulted in the
discovery of additional dormant accounts - 54,000 in December, 1999.
The published lists contain all types of dormant accounts, including interest-bearing savings accounts,
securities accounts, safe deposit boxes, custody accounts, and non-interest-bearing transaction
accounts. Numbered accounts are also included. Interest is paid on accounts that were interest
bearing when established. The Claims Resolution Tribunal (CRT) handles processing of all claims on accounts due non-Swiss
citizens. A dormant account of ORDNER ADELE with a credit balance of 35,000,000 USD plus
accumulated interest was discovered by me. The beneficiary was murdered during the holocaust era,
leaving no WILL and no possible records for trace of heirs.
The Claims Resolution Tribunal has been mandated to report all funds not paid out for permanent closure of
accounts and transfer of existing credit balance into the treasury of Switzerland government as provided by
the law for management of assets of deceased beneficiaries who died interstate (living no wills).
Being a top executive at ICEP, I have all secret details and necessary contacts for claim of the funds
without any hitch. The funds will be banked in the Cayman Island, being a tax free, safe haven for funds
and we can share the funds and use in investment of our choice.
Due to the sensitive nature of my job, I need a foreigner to HELP claim the funds. All that is
required is for you to provide me with your details for processing of the necessary legal and
administrative claim documents for transfer of the funds to you.
Kindly provide me with your full name, address, and telephone/fax. I will pay all required fees to ensure
that the fund is transferred to a secure, numbered account in your name in the Cayman Island, of which
you will be capable of accessing the funds gradually and transferring to your country and other banks of
choice in the world. My share will be 60 percent and your share is 40 per cent of the total amount. THERE
IS NO PROBLEM INVOLVED.

The Holocaust Claims Processing Office has put funds in Escrow awaiting submission of valid information for
necessary disbursement.
I find myself priviledged to have this information and this may be a great opportunity for a life time of
success without problem. johnbeat10@latinmail.com
Thank you for your prompt response.
