According to our research there is urgent suspect of abuse of international currency and financial system worldwide whereby identified accounts, deposits, equity and assets owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX are and were misused by banks mentioned below : 01. XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, branches from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX is an universal bank, with the head office in XXXX / XXXX being fully responsible and liable for all the economic activities of its branches and subsidiaries worldwide. 

02. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ; 03. XXXX XXXX PRIVATE BANK ( XXXX XXXX ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX ; 04. XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ; 05. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ; 06. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX ; 07. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; 08. XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX ; 09. XXXX XXXX ; 10. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) ; 11. XXXX XXXX XXXX, HSBC XXXX, HSBC XXXX XXXX, HSBC XXXX ; 12. SXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; As part of this correspondence, we therefore provide you with evidence regarding our identified owner accounts, deposits and securities in association with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and refer to the documents already provided to you. 



Today, we are adding other evidence of investments related to our company XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX concerning our shares, accounts, deposits and securities in connection with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( HSBC XXXX, HSBC XXXX XXXX and HSBC XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The total volume of our investments amounts to USD XXXX. of which realized investments, our deposits, transactions and securities were and are on the stock market worldwide. 



Based on submitted agreements with XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX, for our company XXXX   XXXX XXXX XXXX ( - this with reference to last bank statements dated XX/XX/XXXX,  already submitted - ), is apparent that our deposits and securities at XXXX XXXX XXXX as at 15. XX/XX/XXXX amounted to USD XXXX, XXXX Billion. In addition, interest rates, dividends and income - that was never paid out - have to be added. 



The value and key figures of executed orders and transactions through various banks in the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX with the other banks mentioned above are partially apparent from the submissions in the stock market and refer to registrations with SEC, US FED, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, clearing system, DTC etc. and also are partially insured with FDIC ( as confirmed by FDIC ). 



Not one of these banks has paid dividends, income or interest to our company XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX. We have not received any information about our requirements regarding realized transactions it was not possile to enable us access to our own accounts, registered stock values and deposits. This is clearly evident from our correspondences since XX/XX/XXXX. 



Not one of these banks has filed tax returns and/or declared binding statutory taxes regarding our assets, not one informed XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX about tax-matters and/or consequences. For years XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for these banks obviously served as a vehicle to operate offshore, doing their tax-exempt businesses in the billions of USD, this on our back and on our risk. 



As proved by evidence and documents submitted to you, in XX/XX/XXXX, after conducting a full investigation ( with the support of the XXXX XXXX of XXXX ), XXXX tax authority has determined tax liability in volume of USD XXXX Billion charged to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, solely with reference to the investments existing at XXXX XXXX XXXX in the name of our company. 



Therefore it is obvious that banks mentoned above have acted improperly and with full intent, most likely also in consultation with each other, and abusive have used our own accounts, deposits, instruments, guarantees and securities and our stock values. On the part of the aforementioned banks, illegal transactions were conducted without our knowledge and without our consent, whereby over the stock market thousands of investors in the USA and in other countries were abused. By such illegal transactions from our accounts numerous criminal offenses have been committed, not only infidelity and abuse, but also forgery, money laundering and tax evasion. An example is illegally realized clearing transaction between XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX and XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX in XXXX XXXX in the amount of USD XXXX Billion. This was done to the detriment of deposited assets of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX invested in XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX ( please see page 6 of the official Clearing Document, which document already has been sent to you ). 



It is extremely noticeable that through above-mentioned illegal activities of above-mentioned banks concerning our assets, and through close collaboration of the banks concerned, any inspection consequently was denied. This refusal was necessary in order to be able further to dispose of our assets without any hindrance. 



The banks concerned ( e.g. XXXX XXXX XXXX ) seem to be relying on their illegal activities to remain undetected. Those banks primarily are systemically, why ( because of their size, economic importance and also political power ) they trust that even regulators will not oppose them. 



Also from the letter addressed to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ) it is conclusive to deduce that the banks have been proceeded and will proceed on a systematic and obviously fraudulent basis. 



The criminal activities of these banks in connection with the legally exclusive assets of XXXX   XXXX XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX consistently have deceived US INSTITUTIONS. This, with obvious aim that by misusing our assets as described, they gain an improper enrichment in favor of those banks, their customers and / or third parties. In addition, one must remember that these activities and methods already partially have been used for decades (! ). For XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX this is completely inadmissible and unacceptable. 



Due to such global fraud of the managers personally responsible for the respective acting banks ( to our disadvantage ), also the world-wide financial stability is extremely endangered. This, because of the gigantic sums and shifts of assets in the hundreds of Billions of USD. 



XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX therefore requests, this because of apparent threat to our assets and the threat to international financial stability, to take all legal measures to protect our assets, accounts, deposits, guarantees, bank instruments and securities and to make them available. In addition, it is necessary immediately to take adequate sanctions against the banks mentioned. In any case, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX intends further to invest a large part of our assets in the USA and also worldwide in agreement with the responsible US institutions. 



We therefore ask you for your understanding that in view of such a gigantic, global scam with hundreds of billions of USD simple standard steps of the respective national supervisory authorities can not be expected. They are clearly overwhelmed. Further clearing and prosecution therefore primarily is in the responsibility of national and international law enforcement authorities. XXXX authorities already have been informed by us where we have submitted corresponding applications and requests. 



Please note that in the meantime the Ministry of Justice in XXXX/ XXXX has informed us that the responsible Prosecutor General has been requested to process our criminal charges. Further there is our insolvency petition against XXXX XXXX XXXX filed at the competent court in XXXX XXXX XXXX. 



We kindly ask you to forward this e-mail and all our correspondence related to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, SEC USA as well as to the relevant Department of Finance of US - Congress, and a.s.a.p. to inform us about. 



We remain with kind regards XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, 100 % XXXX XXXX   and XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ATACHMENTS:XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) .XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Bank Guarantee AND CUSTODIAN XXXX-FDIC INSURANCE NUMBER -DBS BANK STATEMENT , AUTHORIZATION , PROOF OF FUNDS ASSET, BG COMMON
