Spoiler for Handwriting:
That's another matter. This screen only demonstrates that the letters with the bank account number were sent by Beatrice. But we were talking about the messages in the bottle.

However we somehow have a confirmation from professor Ootsuki for that matter. He claims he has seen the original letters, and when Ange shows him the handwriting of Beatrice on Maria's diary he becomes pale and begs Ange to let him see the book.
He doesn't say straight away that the handwriting is the same, but it is heavily hinted so.
It is not another matter. The screenshot shows that Ange compared that handwriting to that in Maria's notebook to confirm:
The money letters handwriting = Beatrice's handwriting

Ange confirmed earlier that:
The message in the bottle handwriting = Beatrice's handwriting

Therefore, as kaitwospirit wrote, the letter in the bottle was written in the same handwriting as the money letters and the writing in Maria's notebook.

That screenshot was only confirmation for the letter in the bottle of the continuation of the episode 3 story line.

This needs a clarification:

Later on, it was confirmed that a similar message bottle had been recovered from the nearby ocean on the day of the accident by the police in their search for lost articles, and this caused a sensation.

It seems that, due to the situation at the time and the fact that the bottle was sealed, the police had decided that its likelihood of being a fabrication was low, and that it had been abandoned within several days before the accident. And the handwriting for both matched. This caused the credibility of the scraps of paper discovered by the fisherman to rise.
The first bottle from episode 1 was found many years after the incident. Regardless of the time other bottles from later episodes were found, here is the screenshot that confirms the truth:
