Recibí esta carta por el Correo Postal. Aquí va la misma digitalizada en HTML y en el idioma ingles en que fue escrita. Creo que debe ser dada a conocer, por el rol que en este escándalo ha cumplido la empresa británica PBL Technology, al adquirirle la patente al Dr. Nestor Carrillo, del Instituto de Biología Molecular de Rosario, por una migaja, tal como se menciona en la denuncia penal que publique hace unos dias y que figura en la web, la que recayó en el Juzgado Federal Penal de la Dra. Maria Romilda Servini de Cubria. Un abrazo Eduardo R. Saguier

Dear Mr. Saguier
Thank you for contacting the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) and for informing us that you suspect you have been the victim of fraud.
After consideration of the information you have provided to us, we have concluded that this is not a matter which is appropriate for investigation by the SFO. Accordingly, no further action will be taken by us and I hope the following will help explain why this is so.
The SFO is a relatively small, highly specialised government department that is permitted bt law to investigate only those cases where there are reasonable grounds to suspect serious or complex fraud. For this reason, we take on only a small number of new cases each year and almost all of these are referred to us by the police or other law enforcement agencies.
That is not to say that the matter you have reported is any less important or any less distressing for you as a victim. It is essential that suspected offenses are investigated expeditiously and our intention in informing you that this is not a matter for the SFO is to reduce the delay in it being brought to the attention of the appropriate organisation.
If you relieve you are the victim of anything other than the most serious or complex fraud, you should normally pursue the matter through your local police force. The police have primary responsibility within the UK for investigating all types of criminality including fraud and other offenses of dishonesty.
Contact details for your local constabulary can be found in your telephone directory or online at http://www.police.uk/forces.htm
Alternatively, you may wish to pursue the matter through one of the following organisations who have responsibility for handling specific types of complaints.
Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS)
One of the stated organisational objectives of BIS is ensuring markets work to the benefit of business, investors, employees and consumers. It also works to deter fraud by enforcing the relevant law. This includes dealing with misconduct or unscrupulous practices, whether or not this amounts to fraud. The Companies Investigation Branch (CIB) of BIS is responsible for investigating companies under the relevant company
legislation. Where CIB uncovers evidence of criminal conduct the facts are generally referred to the police for investigation or to its own prosecution lawyers.
You can contact CIB on 0207 596 5100 or report a matter online at:

In addition, the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) maintains a list of useful links to organisations that may be appropriate for your concerns. This list can be found online at:

In certain situations the information you have provided may be retained on our intelligence database for future reference. Information which includes any personal data (such as your contact details) will only be processed, retained or disclosed in accordance with the principles laid down in the Data Protection Act 1998. Please be assured that all information you have provided will be handled professionally and with the utmost sensitivity.
Once again, thank you for contacting the SFO and for bringing your concerns to our attention.
Yours sincerely,
Nigel John
Intelligence Officer
