Dear Friend.


My name is Mr Gabiie Morentez a member of Independent Committee of Eminent
Persons (ICEP), London-UK. 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. I discovered a dormant account of ORDNER
OLGA with a credit balance of 45,000,000 US dollar plus accumulated interest.
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 unclaimed funds 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/attorney 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 Holland Or London, being a safe haven for the 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,
to this regard, you are expected to fill out a text form. I will pay all
required fees to ensure that the fund is transferred to a secured, numbered
account in your name, where you will be capable of accessing the funds and
gradually transferring to your country and other banks of choice in the
world. THERE IS NO RISK INVOLVED.


You can find additional information about unclaimed funds through the Internet
at the following websites:

www.swissbankclaims.com

http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/europe/9902/09/germany.holocaust/

www.wiesenthal.com


The Holocaust Claims Processing Office has put funds in Escrow awaiting
submission of valid claims for necessary disbursement.


I find myself privileged to have this information and this may be a great
opportunity for a lifetime of success without risks. Due to security reasons,
reply via email only. You may reply to me securely through this email address
(gabiiemorentez_11@yahoo.co.uk )


I await your urgent response to this proposal via my email address. Thank
you for your prompt response. Again reply to my confidential mailbox ASAP
gabiiemorentez01@netscape.net


My Regards

Mr. Gabiie Morentez
