Is there really a computer called the Beast?

I've heard years back about a computer called the Beast but does it really exist? Let me tell you about this 'Beast':

They say it is a gigantic 3 storey, self programming computer that has been set up in Brussels, Belgium. By using three entries of six digits each, each citizen of the whole world will be given a distinct credit card number. Three entries of six digits each: 666.

It is said to located in the administrative building of the headquarters of the Common Market. From the story, experts in programming have perfected a plan that will handle by computer all of the world's trade.

 This master plan would imply a system of digital enumeration of each human being of the earth. Thus the computer would give each inhabitant of the world a number to be used for each purchase or sale, removing the problem of present credit cards.

 This number would be invisibly tatooed by laser, either on the forehead or on the back of the hand. This would establish a walking credit card system. And the number could be seen only through infrared scanners, installed in special verification counters or in business places.

 Dr. Hanrick Eldeman, Chief Analyst of the Common Market Confederacy in Brussels, was the one who  revealed that a computerized restoration plan is already under way to straighten out world chaos.

But according to truthorfiction.com, the beast does not exist but was culled from a novel titled Beyond the Pale Horse by Joe Musser.
