That is so obviously a scam, and easy enough to pick apart.

Paul Volker is the former Chairman of the Federal Reserve bank of the US, having
been succeeded by Alan Greenspan.  He does not and never has had any connection
with switzerland.

There is an organization that seeks to repatriate funds hidden in swiss accounts
to descendants of the Holocaust victims, but it sure isn't called " Independent
Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP)"

The Swiss Banker's Association does not publish any account information because
that is done by the individual banks under Swiss Law.

The Swiss Banks do not have records of who was murdered during the Holocaust,
all they have is abandoned accounts., identified by number.

The Address of 20 rue de Candolle (3rd Floor), 1205 Geneva, Switzerland does not
exist.

Another clue is that the domain name of the reply email address is a registrant

  Now they're claiming to have funds from someone who was murdered in the
Holocaust.

  That hits me where it hurts! I've go the letter and the headers saved. I've
reported the spam, but I'd really like to get this one so that it hurts him.
What should I do?

  This is the letter:

  Office of the Chairman
  The Independent Committee of Eminent Persons
  20 rue de Candolle (3rd Floor), 1205 Geneva, Switzerland
  email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]    &    www.icep-iaep.org : web

  My name is Paul A. Volker, Chairman 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 US dollar 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 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 at ICEP, I have all secret details and necessary
contacts for claim of the funds without any hitch. The funds will be banked in
an offshore bank which will be 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 an offshore bank, 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 RISK INVOLVED.
