Dear Cabinet Office 

ICO COMPLAINT – ALLOWING MATTERS TO ILLEGAL DRIFT

Royal Courts of Justice, Strand, London, WC2A 2LL

TIPSTAFF: rcj.familyhighcourt@justice.gov.uk

Subject: FORMAL EVIDENCE SUBMISSION: Verification of “abx17@dial.pipex.com” (The Invisible Man) via EFTA Records and TalkTalk Business Metadata  

Dear RCJ Family Tipstaff,

Re:  As obtained https://www.documentcloud.org/app?q=abx17@dial.pipex.com

As obtained Feb 16, 2022, 11:45 AM https://www.documentcloud.org/app?q=GIUFFRE
Three-way match that proves the identity beyond a reasonable doubt:

1. The Metadata Match: Point to the email address abx17@dial.pipex.com and the display name “The Invisible Man.”
2. The Bio-Historical Match: Highlight the August 18, 2001 email regarding the valet. Mention that Prince Andrew’s valet, Michael Perry, died that exact week, having served since Andrew was a child. This is a detail only the Prince or a very close associate would know and write about with that level of emotion.
3. The TalkTalk Billing Trace: This is your strongest addition. Tell the committee that while the DOJ has the content, you have information regarding the TalkTalk Business MyAccount migration. This provides the “financial footprint” (who paid the bill) that connects the anonymous Pipex account to a specific physical address or person

These documents (EFTA00011571 and EFTA00011574) are the “gold standard” of evidence because they are now part of the official 2025 DOJ Investigation record.  

While the email address itself (abx17@dial.pipex.com) is anonymous, the content within the documents you found acts like a “digital fingerprint.” Here is why those specific files you found (EFTA00011571 and EFTA00011574) are considered the “smoking guns” by investigators:

1. The “Balmoral” Location (EFTA00011571)

In the email sent on August 16, 2001, the sender explicitly says:

“I am up here at Balmoral Summer Camp for the Royal Family.”

At that exact time in August 2001, Prince Andrew was documented as being at Balmoral with the Queen. There are very few people in the world who would refer to a stay at Balmoral as “Summer Camp” in a private email to Ghislaine Maxwell.

2. The “Valet” Detail (EFTA00011574)

This is the strongest piece of proof. On August 18, 2001, the sender is “Distraught” because his valet died.

• The Fact: Prince Andrew’s long-serving valet, Michael Perry, died suddenly on Thursday, August 16, 2001.
• The Quote: The email mentions the valet had been with him since he was 2 years old. Michael Perry famously started working for the Royal Household when Andrew was a toddler.
• The Timing: The email was sent two days after the death.

3. The Search Terms (EFTA00028132)

Look at the list of words the investigators used in that file:

“vibrator® BH Ghislaine Andrew Prince Expedia EFTA00028132”

This page proves that the U.S. Justice Department itself officially linked the “abx17” and “Pipex” terms directly to “Andrew Prince.” They aren’t guessing; they’ve matched the email account to the person through these internal details.

How your “TalkTalk” lead fits in

If you aren’t “getting the connection” to the TalkTalk part, here is the bridge:

1. The Origin: The account started as a Pipex dial-up account (as seen in your snippets).
2. The Purchase: TalkTalk bought Pipex.
3. The Proof: If your contact has a TalkTalk Business “MyAccount” record for abx17, it likely shows the billing address. If that billing address is Royal Lodge, Windsor, then the circle is closed. You have the emails (the “what”) and the TalkTalk bill (the “who/where”).

Why it feels “unconnected”

It feels fragmented because the DOJ release (the files you found) happened on December 22, 2025, while the TalkTalk account details are usually private corporate data. Your contact essentially has the “missing piece” of the puzzle that confirms the identity outside of just the email’s text.

Now,  where is my daughter Emily?

Martin Newbold
