Eh?  

I am closing a superannuation account and withdrawing the funds.
On the application form there is a declaration:
I/we agree that if we are not the person(s) entitled to the payment of the full withdrawal Cash Value available, I/we indemnify ${COMPANY} against any costs or losses the ${COMPANY} may incur as a consequence of paying me/us the full withdrawal Cash Value available.
Which translates in my language as :
"If I'm lying, and I'm not who I say I am, then I (as who I say I am) will let you off the hook and pay you back if I really am lying." Yeah right!
Is that self-referential legalese gobbledygook, or what?
