The Robin Hoody Process: Discharging Fraudulent Credit Cards
The following is a sanitized transcription of the Robin Hoody process, which began as the genuine attempt of a former executive level chartered accountant to enforce payment using a credit card remittance slip (cheque), in the light of the discovery that credit card companies deposit such instruments in accounts at Euroclear, without the knowledge or consent of their customers.
What ensued was a legal dispute which was the talk of many internet forums for the next eighteen months, during which I acted as the former accountant’s authorised representative and developed a hard and fast remedy for discharging fraudulent claims by credit card companies.
The remedy became widely known as The 3 Letter [Conditional Acceptance] Process, after we achieved three concurrent wins against three major UK credit card companies.
I posted the development of the method we used in full on certain forums and on my web pages, as the process was unfolding, where it remains to this day. It is now reproduced here for the benefit of those who’ve never seen it.
Unless stated otherwise, the company in question either ignored or rejected the contents of the missives we sent and simply issued another demand for payment.

Notice of Acceptance for Value
Dear Robin,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard – Account Number: 8080808080808080
Please find enclosed the financial instrument your company sent me in relation to the above account, accepted for value and returned for settlement, and prepayment against future transactions.
Please also be advised that this instrument, once accepted for value, is lawful specie of money which can be used to credit/off-set the balance of the above account with the authorised use of my exemption ID number. This properly endorsed remittance can be redeemed by depositing it with Her Majesty’s Treasury, as I am sure Capital Two’s Chief Financial Officer is already well aware.
Therefore, please forward this letter and remittance to the appropriate accounts facility within Capital Two and instruct them to act accordingly, providing me with evidence that the account balance has been adjusted.
If no written response from Capital Two is received by mail within ten days of your receipt of this notice, it will be assumed that the account has been credited as per these instructions and that this fact will be reflected in the next monthly statement of account.
Without malice or mischief, in sincerity and honour,

With reference to the financial instrument, accepted for value and returned for settlement and prepayment against future transactions, that was enclosed with the Notice of Acceptance for Value dated 1 December 2008, both of which were delivered to Capital Two by registered mail.
In accordance with the original instructions in the said notice, since Capital Two have accepted the said financial instrument as means of payment, I hereby deliver notice that the standing order related to the above account has been cancelled, as of 29 December 2008.

They might choose to cancel the facility, but they refused legal tender of payment so the debt has now been legally discharged in accordance with the Bills of Exchange Act.
The credit agencies are about to be served notice that should they record false information in relation to this account they will be immediately reported the Office of Fair Trading and invoiced for a substantial fee schedule.

NOTICE OF DISHONOUR
Dear Robin,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard – Account Number: 8080808080808080
With reference to the financial instrument, accepted for value and returned for settlement and prepayment against future transactions, that was enclosed with the Notice of Acceptance for Value dated 1 December 2008, Notice of Non-Response, dated 29 December and Notice of Cancellation of Standing Order, dated 29 December 2009, all of which were delivered to Capital Two by recorded mail.
I hereby give notice that Capital Two has dishonoured each and every one of the said Notices by failing to respond appropriately within a reasonable time frame. Therefore, Capital Two has agreed to all the terms set forth therein; namely:
1. In accordance with the original instructions given in the Notice of Acceptance for Value, Capital Two have accepted the properly endorsed remittance slip as means of settlement and prepayment; and
2. The above account will be credited accordingly.Since Capital Two has accepted the above, Capital Two therefore also accepts the following:
1. Capital Two has no claim to any interest payment, or additional charges, neither of which can be legally added to the account balance; and
2. Capital Two has no authority to adversely affect the credit rating of the card holder.Therefore I request Capital Two send me written confirmation that payment has been received and accepted, as well as an appropriately adjusted statement for the above account, within three working days of your receipt of this notice, sent by recorded mail.
Please be advised that Section 43(a) of the English Bills of Exchange Act, which is still in full force and effect in the UK, clearly states that a bill of exchange is discharged when it:
‘…is duly presented for acceptance, and such an acceptance as is prescribed by this Act is refused or cannot be obtained’.
Therefore, in accordance with the law, in the event that you fail to provide me with what has been so reasonably requested once again, Capital Two’s dishonour of a legal tender of payment discharges the outstanding balance on the above account.

NOTICE OF OPPORTUNITY TO CURE DISHONOUR
Dear Theevin Basterd,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard – Account Number: 8080808080808080
Firstly, I must respectfully decline your offer of title and kindly request that any future correspondence be addressed to Uppercase: Lower, a flesh and blood man. ‘Mr’ is the title to a corporate fiction, otherwise known as my Legal Person, for which I am acting as fully authorised agent and administrator.
Thank you for your letter dated 9 January 2009, which was received at the above mailing location on 21 January 2009, some 11 days after the registered date of posting. Contrary to your claims, I do not feel that Capital Two has given an appropriate response to the serious issues that my legal notices have raised, nor do I consent to your offer of this case being considered closed.
You refer in your letter to my ‘letters’. It is important that Capital Two understand and acknowledge that far from sending Capital Two letters, I have, in fact, sent several ‘Notices’, which are a different specie of correspondence altogether. The Notices, which were all sent by recorded mail, were:
• Notice of Acceptance for Value, dated 1 December 2008,
• Notice of Non-Response, dated 29 December 2008,
• Notice of Cancellation of Standing Order, dated 29 December 2008,
• Notice of Dishonour, dated 15 January 2009 and
• Notice of Invalid Claim Refused for Cause, dated 15 January 2009Your correspondence was the first response I have received from Capital Two in relation to any of the above. I do not believe it to be acceptable business practice for a company to take 40 days to respond to a Notice sent in good faith by a customer, nor should it take 11 days from the date of writing for a letter to be received by the customer. Your tardy response is the only reason matters have yet to be resolved. Therefore, I do not give my consent for you to record negative information on my Legal Person’s credit file and feel compelled to reiterate that Capital Two has made an invalid claim that STRAWMAN has defaulted on the above account, notification of which was Refused for Cause in the Notice dated 15 January 2009.
Furthermore, as set out in each of the said Notices, by failing to respond appropriately within a reasonable time frame, which was also set out in each Notice, Capital Two has in fact given its tacit acceptance to all the claims made within these Notices, including, but not limited to:
1. Capital Two have accepted the properly endorsed remittance slip as means of settlement and prepayment,
2. The above account will be credited accordingly,
3. Capital Two has no claim to any interest payment, or additional charges, neither of which can be legally added to the account balance; and
4. Capital Two has no authority to adversely affect the credit rating of the card holder.With reference to your confusion regarding the financial instrument I sent to Capital Two, the legal definition of remittance is:
‘REMITTANCE, comm. law. Money sent by one merchant to another, either in specie, bill of exchange, draft or otherwise.
In commercial law, to remit is to send money, bills, or something which will answer the purpose of money.’
It is my understanding that, in accordance with the English Bills of Exchange Act, my acceptance and indorsement of the said financial instrument as Holder In Due Course, validates it as a legal tender of payment. Therefore, the legal definition of ‘remittance’ clearly includes without restriction, the properly indorsed financial instrument I sent to Capital Two as legal tender of payment in relation to the above account.
In addition to all of the above, if, as you claim, Capital Two does not accept prepayment, or if, as you also claim, the ‘giro bank payment slip’ is not legal tender, why has the remittance not been returned to me with an instruction to amend the amount or send alternative payment before now?
Please be advised that Section 43(a) of the English Bills of Exchange Act clearly states that a bill of exchange is discharged when it:
‘…is duly presented for acceptance, and such an acceptance as is prescribed by this Act is refused or cannot be obtained’.
Therefore, in accordance with all of the above stated facts, I have provided Capital Two with a valid method of payment and an account number from which Capital Two may effect payment and clear instructions as to how to effect this payment.
I hereby serve notice that if Capital Two should choose not accept the properly endorsed remittance, currently held by Capital Two, as legal tender of payment within ten days of your receipt of this notice, sent by recorded mail on 22 January 2009, the debt will be considered legally discharged and the account must be adjusted accordingly.
I hereby declare that notice to principal is notice to agent, and notice to agent is notice to principal, shall apply to all correspondence referenced herein, as well as all future correspondence in relation to this matter.

In relation to the above account, I hereby serve notice that since 1 December 2008, I have presented legal tender of payment and served six notices by registered mail to Capital Two, all of which have been dishonoured. It is important that Capital Two understand and acknowledge that far from sending Capital Two letters, I have, in fact, sent several ‘Notices’, which are a different specie of correspondence altogether.

• Notice of Non-Response, dated 29 December 2008,
• Notice of Cancellation of Standing Order, dated 29 December 2008,

• Notice of Invalid Claim Refused for Cause, dated 15 January 2009, and
• Notice of Opportunity To Cure Dishonour, dated 22 January 2009.Ignoring legally served notices in relation to the above account and making invalid claims against STRAWMAN will result in following fee schedule being charged to Capital Two:
– GBP£150.00 per invalid claim made by Capital Two – GBP£150.00 per notice sent by registered mail by STRAWMAN – GBP£150.00 per hour of the Agent & Administrator’s time
The law of agent and principal shall apply this notice and all other notices sent to Capital Two in relation to this account.

As detailed in that Notice, failure to reply within ten days of Capital Two’s receipt of that notice can be taken as Capital Two’s tacit acceptance to all the claims made within that, and previous Notices, including, but not limited to:
1. Capital Two have accepted the properly endorsed remittance slip as means of settlement and prepayment,
2. The above account will be credited accordingly,
3. Capital Two has no claim to any interest payment, or additional charges, neither of which can be legally added to the account balance; and

The credit card company are now sending notices of their own refusing to accept that the debt has been discharged. They are denying that they agreed to the proposed terms with their silent consent and they are falsely claiming they have a right to charge late payment penalties and adversely affect the credit rating.
They’re also pretending they haven’t received an invoice for the Fee Schedule, which is now in excess of £1200 and that they have not been asked for verification and validation of the liability. In other words, they are fecked and they know it!

NOTICE OF DISHONOUR
Notice to the principal is notice to the agent
Notice to the agent is notice to the principalDear ROBIN HOODY,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard – Account Number: 123123123
Following the recorded delivery of the AFFIDAVIT OF NEGATIVE AVERMENT to CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC on 20 March 2009 in relation to the above account, and the subsequent failure of CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC to deliver a response within the stated time and in the appropriate manner, I hereby serve NOTICE OF DISHONOUR.
Legal Maxims:
Silence comprises agreement in commerce, equity, admiralty, Lex Mercatoria and public policy.
An affidavit stands as truth in commerce, equity, admiralty, Lex Mercatoria and public policy, unless rebutted, point-by-point, by an Affidavit which is sworn to the same degree of commercial risk.
CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC’S failure to respond to the VERIFIED AFFIDAVIT OF FACTS BY SPECIFIC NEGATIVE AVERMENT, point-by-point, at the same level of commercial risk, comprises the Respondent’s affirmation, attestation and agreement to all terms and statements contained therein.
Therefore, since the parties are now in agreement that the liability of STRAWMAN has been discharged, please return the endorsed instrument for reconsideration, along with confirmation that the balance of the above account is zero, within three days of your receipt of this notice.
CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC should also be advised that any further demands for payment may be in contravention the Bills of Exchange Act 1882, the Fraud Act 2006 section 3, the Theft Act 1968 sections 17, 18, 21 and the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. At no time have I abandoned, implied or given consent for any party to claim or withhold proceeds as abandoned funds.
In the event that the said instrument has been lost, then section 69 and 70 of the Bills of Exchange Act 1882 may apply, in which case, please supply both your Public Liability Insurance policy number and your TIN (Tax Identification Number), in order that the necessary claim might be effected.
Without malice or mischief, in sincerity and honour,

The usual threats we have all experienced at the hands of credit bandits have been conspicuous by their absence, as has ANY correspondence from Robin Hoody’s in-house debt collection arm, and a delinquent debtor report to the credit referencing agencies has not been filed.
The executive in question, rather than risk being held personally liable for fraud, has now closed the account and passed the legally discharged debt on to a third party interloper with no legal standing, who has sent a very polite letter attempting to establish a new agreement.
NOTICE OF INVALID CLAIM
Dear Chief Executive Officer of 3rd Party Interlopers,
INTERLOPER REFERENCE: 123123123
I hereby serve legal notice that INTERLOPER has made an invalid claim against STRAWMAN, in relation to a discharged liability with CAPITAL TWO BANK EUROPE.
The alleged debt has been legally discharged pursuant to the English Bills of Exchange Act 1882, following CAPITAL TWO BANK EUROPE’S dishonour of legal tender of payment, and its subsequent failure to respond to a notarised AFFIDAVIT OF NEGATIVE AVERMENT, which was delivered to your client on 21 March 2009 by recorded mail, creating permanent, irrevocable estoppel and administrative Default Judgement, vitiating any and all previous agreements between CAPITAL TWO BANK EUROPE and STRAWMAN.
Please be advised that INTERLOPER’S pursuit of this false claim against STRAWMAN may be in contravention of the Statute of Frauds Act 1667, which clearly states:
“IV Noe action shall be brought…F2 whereby to charge the Defendant upon any special promise to answer for the debt default or miscarriages of another person…F3 unlesse the Agreement upon which such Action shall be brought or some Memorandum or Note thereof shall be in writing and signed by the partie to be charged therewith or some other person thereunto by him lawfully authorized.”
For the avoidance of doubt, at no point has STRAWMAN entered into or consented to any Agreement of any kind with INTERLOPER, nor does STRAWMAN consent to any Agreement, whether express or implied, with INTERLOPER.
Furthermore, the Fraud Act 2006 states that:
“1 Fraud
(1) A person is guilty of fraud if he is in breach of any of the sections listed on subsection (2) (which provide for different ways of committing the offence).

Dear CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard – Account Number: 1234123412341234
In response to your company’’s INPORTANT NOTICE, sent for and on behalf of POWER2INTERLOPE LTD, I hereby serve NOTICE OF INVALID CLAIMS made by Interloper Limited, on behalf of CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC.
Contrary to Interlopers Limited’s claims, a NOTICE OF INVALID CLAIMS was delivered to Robin Bandit on 12 May 2009 by Post Office Recorded Delivery ***************. Since this NOTICE was ignored, a certified copy of it was sent by Post Office Recorded Delivery *************** on 16 May 2009. Please find enclosed certified copies of all correspondence sent by STRAWMAN to Interlopers Limited in relation to this matter.
Please be advised that any further invalid claims made by POWER2INTERLOPE LTD following service of this NOTICE, and/or further attempts to contact the Authorised Representative in person, by mail, mobile phone and/or telephone, whether at the above mailing location or at STRAWMAN’S place of work, will constitute the agreement of POWER2INTERLOPE LTD to the following Default Fee Schedule:
– GBP£1500.00 per invalid claim in writing, nunc pro tunc – GBP£1500.00 per visit to the above mailing location – GBP£1500.00 per notice sent by recorded mail by STRAWMAN, nunc pro tunc – GBP£150.00 per hour of the Authorised Representative’s time, nunc pro tunc – GBP£150.00 per attempt to contact by telephone, nunc pro tunc

NOTICE OF ATTEMPT TO COLLECT AN INVALID CLAIM
NOTICE TO AGENT IS NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL
NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL IS NOTICE TO AGENTDear CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard – Account Number: 1234123412341234
In response to your comaony’s INPORTANT NOTICE, sent for and on behalf of POWER2INTERLOPE LTD, NOTICE OF INVALID CLAIMS was sent to you by Post Office Recorded Delivery ************* on 28 May 2009, a Certified Copy of which has been enclosed with this notice, along with NOTICE OF FEE SCHEDULE.
Please be advised that an employee of POWER2INTERLOPE visited the above mailing location at 11am GMT on Thursday 18 June, claiming that he was “looking for MISS STRAWMAN”. Since I was not present at the time my partner spoke to Mike Atkinson (Ref: 1904), who asked him if “MISS STRAWMAN” lived there, to which my partner replied “No”, since MISS STRAWMAN is a fititious entity, who can neither live or be seen anywhere, and for which I am the exclusively authorised representative, as you have already been informed.
For the avoidance of doubt, this alleged liability has been settled administratively by a notarial proces; the outstanding balance of the above account has been legally discharged pursuant to the Bills of Exchange Act 1882; and any and all previous agreements have been vitiated because of CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC’s failure to provide validation and verification of the alleged debt and an original bilateral credit agreement, in accordance with the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and Consumer Credit (Agreements) Regulations 1983 (SI 1983/1553). Please be aware that the House of Lords, in the case of Wilson v First County Trust Ltd – [2003] All ER (D) 187 (Jul), ruled that a credit agreement must contain the prescribed terms and must be signed in the prescribed manner for the agreement to be legally enforcable.
Therefore, POWER2INTERLOPE are clearly attempting to enforce an invalid claim after being served due legal notice that the debt has already been discharged. Certified Copies of all relevant correspondence will now be forwarded to Chairman of the Office of Fair Trading, John Vickers, along with a request that he initiates an investigation into POWER2INTERLOPE’s entirely dishonourable business practice, which may well be in contravention of the Consumer Credit Act 1974, Consumer Credit (Agreements) Regulations 1983 (SI 1983/1553), the above referenced ruling of the House of Lords and the OFT’s Guidance Notes on Fair Debt Collection.
Without malice or mischief, in sincerity and honour,
By: Uppercase: Lower (Authorised Representative)
WITHOUT PREJUDICE – WITHOUT RECOURSE – NON ASSUMPSIT
The Robin Hoodies sold the discharged liability to yet another 3rd party interloper, who immediately served a blood red, highly aggressive and threatening CREDITOR’S NOTICE, stating clearly that county court proceedings would be initiated if the alleged debt was not settled within 7 days.
Time to disarm them by conditionally accepting the debt, provided they provide us with that which we already know they can’t provide.

6. Proof of claim that this alleged liability has not been settled administratively, following ROBIN HOODIES’s failure to respond appropriately to a notarised VERIFIED AFFIDAVIT OF FACTS BY SPECIFIC NEGATIVE AVERMENT
7. Proof of claim that ROBIN HOODIES is not in multiple breach of the Office of Fair Trading’s Final Guidance on Unfair Business Practices July 2003 (updated December 2006)Dishonour of this NOTICE OF CONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE by failing to provide these reasonably requested items within seven (7) days of ROYAL MAIL SPECIAL DELIVERY BAR CODE NUMBER, will constitute the voluntary agreement of INTERLOPERS LIMITED that it has aggressively and unfairly attempted to collect an invalid claim, and in so doing, it has caused injury to STRAWMAN, for which the Authorised Representative for STRAWMAN is legally entitled to make a commercial claim through the county courts for three times the value of the alleged debt, in the event that all available private administrative remedies have already been exhausted.

Within three days of receiving this, the interlopers replied with the following letter:
Dear STRAWMAN,
Re: Capital Two Mistercard 1234 1234 1234 1234
Further to your recent contact with our office and your request for further information in relation to the above account, we would confirm that your account is now on hold for 28 days whilst we obtain the information required.
If you have any proof of payments or correspondence that would assist with your query, please forward these documents, with a brief covering letter, to our Collections Administration department, so that we can resolve the matter as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Collections Administration Department.
Oh dear. It seems that the CEO has created a liability of the 3 times the value of the invalid claim, which is why he is attempting to establish a new agreement with the collections department.
With a notarised administrative judgment in hand, there can be no doubt that the final settlement and closure of the matter has materialised on the horizon.

Re: Account Number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
While I am certainly no legal expert or a practicing member of the Law Society, it has come to my attention, following extensive research on the banking industry, as well as diligent study of the statutes governing Consumer Credit Agreements, that there is every reason to believe that CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC is not Holder-in-due-Course of the original loan agreement (promissory note), and/or CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC may be in breach of the alleged existing agreement, concerning the above referenced account.
Therefore, I am once again serving notice of MS STRAWMAN’s intention to discharge the alleged debt in full, using the same specie of money that CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC used to fund the alleged loan, provided that the clearly expressed terms of the NOTICE OF CONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE dated 11 August 2009 are fully satisfied, and MS STRAWMAN receives specific answers to the following questions:
1. According to the alleged loan agreement, did CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC lend its own money as adequate consideration to purchase the promissory note (loan agreement) from MS STRAWMAN? Please answer YES or NO.
2. According to the relevant bookkeeping entries, did CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC lend its own money as adequate consideration to purchase the promissory note (loan agreement) from MS STRAWMAN? Please answer YES or NO.
3. According to the alleged loan agreement, was MS STRAWMAN to provide valuable consideration to fund the alleged loan(s)? Please answer YES or NO.

10. Was the alleged loan agreement, and/or any and all other documents and/or instruments affixed thereto, registered as a Bill of Sale within seven (7) days of its alleged execution? Please answer YES or NO.

PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL
DENY EVERYTHING PARTNERS
BULLSHIT HOUSE
NOXIOUS CITY NC6 66FU15 September 2009
NOTICE OF INVALID CLAIMS
NOTICE TO AGENT IS NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL
NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL IS NOTICE TO AGENTDear DENY EVERYTHING PARTNERS,
Re: Account Number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
Following your letters dated 10 and 14 September 2009, in relation to the ongoing commercial dispute between MS STRAWMAN and your client, CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC SERVICES EUROPE LIMITED, I hereby serve NOTICE OF INVALID CLAIMS.
With all due respect, the palpable implication within your assertion that the facts of Wilson v First County Trust Ltd bear no relation to the alleged “argument put forward” by MS STRAWMAN and the undersigned Agent in Commerce; to wit, that the provisions of the Consumer Credit Agreement 1974 (the Act) do not apply to your client in relation to this matter, is hereby rejected as erroneous. For your information, MS STRAWMAN takes the position that it is the legal precedent set by the Wilson case that is relevant on this occasion. In paragraph 29 of the 2003 House of Lords ruling on Wilson v First County Trust Ltd, referring to the Act, Lord Nicholls stated that:
“The court’s powers under section 127(1) are subject to significant qualification in two types of cases. The first type is where section 61(1) (a), regarding signing of agreements, is not complied with. In such cases the court ‘shall not make’ an enforcement order unless a document, whether or not in the prescribed form, containing all the prescribed terms, was signed by the debtor: section 127(3). Thus, signature of a document containing all the prescribed terms is an essential prerequisite to the court’s power to make an enforcement order.”
Furthermore, the esteemed barrister and draftsman of the Consumer Credit Agreement 1974, Francis Bennion, stated on his own website:
“…I included the provision in question (section 127(3)) entirely on my own initiative. It seemed right to me that if a creditor company couldn’t be bothered to ensure that all the prescribed particulars were accurately included in the credit agreement it deserved to find it unenforceable, and that the court should not have the power to relieve it of this penalty. Nobody queried this, and it went through Parliament without debate. I’m glad the House of Lords has now vindicated my reasoning and confirmed that nobody’s human rights were infringed.”
Therefore, since the Act is still in full force and effect, and the above referenced section 127(3) has not been repealed by any subsequent Act of Parliament, it seems reasonable to presume that the eventual resolution of this disputed debt will be determined by the provisions of the Act in question, which is applied to all consumer credit agreements in the United Kingdom.
Moreover, the claim that your client has delivered the items repeatedly requested in order to validate and verify the alleged debt is entirely incorrect, as is any implication and/or assertion that your client is not legally required to give adequate assurance of due performance upon request. The only items that have been received are: an unverified digital record of an electronic credit application; a set of photocopied statements of account; and a photocopied consumer credit agreement, which clearly states on the first page, “CREDIT CARD AGREEMENT REGULATED BY THE CONSUMER CREDIT ACT 1974”, but does not bear either the name or the signature of the alleged debtor, while the questions posed in the NOTICES REQUESTING ADEQUATE ASSURANCE OF DUE PERFORMANCE remain unanswered.
Finally, serving notice that it has advised its client to “proceed accordingly” in respect of issuing proceedings to recover the alleged debt, and/or forwarding the file to one of its external agents for collection seems somewhat belated, since CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC has already forwarded the file to MACFUCK DEBT RECOVERY, which hasn’t been able to verify or validate the alleged debt upon request.
For the avoidance of doubt, MS STRAWMAN does not consent to your request to cease corresponding with either DENY EVERYTHING PARTNERS and/or your client; until such time that this matter has been settled and closed.

Re: Account Number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
Following the service of the NOTICE OF DEFAULT dated 29 August 2009, and the subsequent receipt of your company’s letter, signed in blue ink by Mrs K Murray, MISS STRAWMAN hereby serves NOTICE OF COMMERCIAL INJURY CLAIM.
In response to the issues raised by Mrs K Murray, I can confirm that, to the best of her knowledge, the Authorised Representative for MISS STRAWMAN did in fact open the above referenced account, and subsequently used some of the available services and facilities. However, she now believes that material facts pertaining to the alleged agreement of the parties may have been concealed by your client, thereby vitiating it, ab initio; that any existing or previously existing consumer credit agreement (promissory note) may have been lost, altered, deposited in the wrong account, sold or stolen; and that your client may have perpetrated a fraud in the factum against MISS STRAWMAN, for which its debt collection agents are held jointly and severally liable because of their dishonourable lack of due diligence before proceeding with collection.
For the avoidance of doubt, it has already been established administratively that the failure of your company to validate and verify the alleged debt comprises the tacit procuration of MACFUCK DEBT RECOVERY LIMITED’s agreement that it has aggressively and unfairly attempted to collect an invalid claim, and in so doing, your company has caused injury to MISS STRAWMAN, for which the injured party intends to file a commercial injury claim for TWO THOUSAND, THREE HUNDRED & SIXTY EIGHT POUNDS STERLING & SIXTY FOUR PENCE, in the event that all available private administrative remedies have been exhausted.

When the lawyers tried to argue that an unsigned agreement without a name on it, a set of photocopied statements and an undated printout of somebody making an electronic credit card application were enough to validate and verify the alleged debt, it was clear that they had no sustainable evidence that their clients lent any money.

NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL IS NOTICE TO AGENTDear DENY EVERYTHING,
Re: Account Number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
Following receipt of your letter dated 22 September 2009, the contents of which MS STRAWMAN rejects without dishonour, on the grounds that, regardless of Wilson, DENY EVERYTHING PARTNERS’s arguments are, with all due respect, unsustainable, I hereby serve NOTICE OF COMMERCIAL INJURY CLAIM.
With reference to the Consumer Credit Act 1974 (Electronic Communications Act) Order 2004, MS STRAWMAN takes the position that your interpretation of this particular statutory instrument offers little or no adequate protection for consumers against the unscrupulous actions of internet fraudsters and the ever-increasing threat of identity theft, and for that reason, does not consent to the application of the order.
Furthermore, having read the Consumer Credit (Enforcement, Default and Termination Notices) Regulations 1983, its subsequent amendments and the judgment of the Honourable Mr Simon Brown QC, in the case of Rankine v American Express (the legal precedent to which you seem to be referring), it is clear that the circumstances of this matter, as well as the issues raised, are almost entirely different from Rankine. To wit: your client has repeatedly failed to substantiate its alleged losses with the actual accounting of the loan(s); your client has repeatedly failed to give adequate assurances of due performance upon reasonable request; there is no evidence to suggest that the alleged liability was not originally discharged, pursuant to section 43 of the Bills of Exchange Act 1882, when your client refused to accept the specie of payment tendered by MS STRAWMAN; and neither the Agent in Commerce for MS STRAWMAN, not the Authorised Representative, are seeking to profit from any perceived “loopholes” in the Consumer Credit Act 1974. On the contrary, we are seeking to enforce its honourable provisions.
Therefore, with firsthand knowledge of the supporting evidence, MS STRAWMAN hereby serves notice that there is every reason to believe that facts pertaining to the alleged agreement of the parties may have been concealed by CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC, thereby vitiating it, ab initio; that any existing or previously existing consumer credit agreement (promissory note) may have been lost, altered, deposited in the wrong account, sold or stolen; and that your client may have perpetrated a fraud in the factum against MS STRAWMAN, for which its debt collection agents will be held jointly and severally liable for their dishonourable lack of due diligence before proceeding with collection.
MS STRAWMAN will now initiate any and all administrative and/or judicial proceedings deemed to be necessary in order to cure all commercial injury caused by CAPITAL TWO BANK (EUROPE) PLC’S debt collection agents, unless your client delivers an appropriate offer of settlement by 05 October 2009.

Notice to principal is notice to agentThe Laws of Commerce
All are equal under the law. See Exodus 21:23-25; Lev. 24:17-21; Deut. 1:17, 19:21; Matt. 22:36-40; Luke 10:17; Col. 3:25. Legal maxims: No one is above the law; Commerce, by the law of nations, ought to be common, and not to be converted into a monopoly and the private gain of a few.
In commerce, truth is sovereign. See Exodus 20:16; Psalms 117:2; John 8:32; II Cor. 13:8. Legal maxim: To lie is to go against the mind.
Truth is expressed in the form of an Affidavit. See Lev. 5:4-5; Lev. 6:3-5; Lev. 19:11-13; Num. 30:2; Matt. 5:33; James 5:12.
An unrebutted affidavit stands as truth in commerce. See 1 Pet. 1:25; Heb. 6:13-15. Legal maxim: He, who does not deny, admits.
An unrebutted affidavit becomes a judgment in commerce. See Heb. 6:16-17. Any proceeding in court, tribunal or arbitration forum consists of a contest of commercial affidavits, wherein the points remaining unrebutted at the end of the contest stand as the truth to which the judgment of the law is applied.
He who leaves the field of battle first (does not respond appropriately to an Affidavit) loses by default. See Book of Job; Matt 10:22. Legal maxim: He who does not repel a wrong when he can occasions it.
Sacrifice is the measure of credibility. One who is not damaged, put at risk or willing to swear an oath or make an affirmation on his full commercial liability for the truth of his statements and the legitimacy of his actions, has no basis to assert claims or charges, and forfeits all credibility and right to claim the authority to do so. See Acts 7. Legal maxim: He who bears the burden ought also to derive the benefit.
A lien or claim, under commercial law, can only be satisfied by one of the following actions: A full rebuttal by an Affidavit of Truth, point-by-point, supported by evidence and sworn or affirmed at the same level of commercial risk; the satisfaction of the claimant, whether by payment or mutual agreement; resolution by a jury, in accordance with the rules of common law. See Gen. 2-3; Matt 4; Revelation. Legal maxim: If the plaintiff does not prove his case, the defendant is absolved
A party injured by the fraud of another may claim triple damages, plus the principal. “And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.” Luke 19:8.
Bouvier’s Maxims

The Day 3 Credit Bandits Ran For The Hills
Remember, remember, the 5th of November 2009.
Almost a decade since the lien was served on that infamous date, my favourite accountant has received no further correspondence from Robin Hoody or his agents.
Whilst the bogus debt was discharged, the credit card company and its debt collection agent still owes her £251,900.00 in damages. It also goes without saying that there was no adverse effect to her credit record.
An identical process was administered against two other major credit card companies.
In each case, gave up their fraudulent claims against the former KPMG auditor, who quit her job because she refused to turn a blind eye to corrupt accounting practices.
It should therefore be no surprise to any followers of my subsequent work that my favourite former accountant is also my wonderful wife. Were it not for her courage and integrity, this remedy might never have been established.
