The Essential Underground Handbook
Chapter One
Offshore Banking

The offshore world is often cloaked in secrecy, the price for membership
of this elite club is high, the techniques for offshore freedom, elusive, until
now.

This chapter was written to provide you, the reader with a series of easy to
follow steps to opening and maintaining an offshore bank account, as
well as obtaining debit and credit cards, establishing merchant accounts,
and setting up online payment systems

I will describe the different types of accounts that you can open and
discuss ways of hiding your funds should anyone come looking for them.
Everything is provided, from account opening forms, schedules of fees,
benefits, and a complete analysis of each bank referenced in this book.

By the end of it you will be able to open your own offshore account,
manage and move funds in secrecy, and be part of the offshore world.

1. Introduction

Since that fateful day – September 11 – things have changed
considerably; the offshore world and those who participate in it are now
viewed in the same regard as ‘arms dealer’.

Opening offshore accounts, setting up offshore companies, not wanting
the government to know every single detail of your life is not terrorism, it is
the right of every free person. If it were not the case then many of our
recognised politicians would be charged and incarcerated by now,
where do you think they keep their money?

Most people view this industry with scepticism and distrust and this is
largely due to the cost involved in getting started. Many offshore
consultants charge small fortunes to open an account. In fact one guy I
know, charges $2500 to open a visa account, $1000 gets deposited in the
account as its minimum opening balance and he pockets the other $1500
for sending you two forms in the post. It is this kind of behaviour that gives
the rest of us a bad name.

So, rant over, let us begin.

2. So Why Go Offshore?

There are a myriad of reasons, from hiding money from your spouse, to
collecting profits from an on-line business. The most popular though, is
avoiding the high rate of taxation in your home country. Many of my
friendss are I.T. consultants living in Europe, they contract all over the
world, and under regular circumstances would be required to pay tax on
their income either in their place of work or back home. To get around this
they set up an offshore business and invoice the local company directly
from there. The payments are wired to their account and they have
instant access to the funds via a regular ATM card. The small service fees
for this kind of transaction are nothing compared with the high rate of tax
they would have been paying otherwise.

I am not saying this is one hundred percent legal in some countries but the
fact of the matter is, if you do it properly, carefully, then the chance that
anyone will ever find out is practically zero.

Another good reason to go offshore is to protect your assets. If they are
offshore, and you were ever divorced, made bankrupt etc. the chances
of them ever finding, let alone seizing them would be slim to none.

3. Offshore Agents and Big Brother

As you can see the offshore world is a murky one. An alarming fact has
recently come to the attention of myself and several other consultants
that I know, and this is that some well known offshore providers have been
‘pressed’ into providing information on their clients and the services that
they have purchased from them. One guy who attends one of our regular
conferences admitted that his boss sends full reports every time an
account is opened for a client to a US based agency.

This is why opening an account yourself, or opening several and passing
the money between them reduces your risk. Only you and the bank know
about this arrangement.

4. Offshore Money Flow

In a perfect world, offshore banks would offer one hundred percent
secrecy, one hundred percent stability, and one hundred percent
accessibility. Unfortunately this isn’t true, due to ever changing laws and
regulations, and increasing pressure on offshore havens, maintaining
secrecy whilst having instant access to your funds is a little more difficult
than you may think.

The answer though lies in the creation of several bank accounts. Each of
these created for a specific purpose, and part of the overall money flow
solution.

The Three Accounts

Below are listed the three type of accounts that should be created, and
their function.

1. The Pass-Through Account

This will be the first type of account you will create. It should be in a
jurisdiction that has total banking secrecy laws in place such as; Latvia,
Antigua, Estonia, Grenada, or Venuatu. This is your front account, the
account that you will give to your clients when they wish to pay you, this is
also the account that you will use when you want to transfer money to
someone else. This is as the name suggests, an account whose only
purpose it to send or receive money.

Typically you should rely on the smaller banking establishments as they
generally provide far better secrecy and confidentiality than the larger
ones. The stability of the jurisdiction and the bank is less important for this
type of account as their will never be any great sums of cash sitting there
for more that a few days.

2. The Stash Account

Your stash account should be opened in a stable jurisdiction with a
reputable banking establishment. This account will be used to store the
majority of your money, and receive funds from your stash account or
other offshore investments.
