SOMEBODY PISSED THE WRONG PERSON OFF HAHAHAHA
This may not be exactly on topic, but please take a second to read the following. It is essential that society be reminded that those among us who would choose to lie, steal, or scam for personal gain are held accountable. This is an example of such accountability.
In November of 2003 a member of the www.beyond.ca web forums (then 14 years old) purchased a sound card on eBay for $350. The seller, Sean Banerjee, did not ship the item and never returned the money. This type of scam is quite common, though that does not excuse it as being tolerable. The beyond.ca member, known as zipdoa, tried for several years to convince Sean Banerjee to return the money to him. Then he asked for a written apology. He received neither, but instead received mockery and extreme disrespect from Sean Banerjee whenever an e-mail exchange occurred.
In February of 2009, nearly six years later, zipdoa posts on beyond.ca his side of the events as well as proof of payment to Sean Banerjee. The thread slowly dies with lack of interest and is forgotten about until August of 2009, when Sean Banerjee contacts beyond.ca administrators and asks that the thread be removed. As per the website’s policy, the post is not removed and is in fact updated to reflect the contact and requests from Sean Banerjee.
What follows is most bewildering to any individual with even a grain of common sense and decency. A detailed transcription of the events can be found on a website dedicated to exposing Sean Banerjee, aptly titled www.seanbanerjee.com. A direct link to the post that discusses the beyond.ca events in more detail (you’ll want to read this, believe me) can be found here: The Beyond.ca Incident | Sean Banerjee - All About Shandip Banerjee.
The purpose of the website is education. It is not monetized in any way, as this is not a commercial effort. This is about awareness. This is about exposing an individual who allegedly has conned many people, including the beyond.ca member, out of money, services, and accommodation (on the website you’ll find posts that detail numerous lawsuits against Sean Banerjee and his family for those very reasons, as well as official court documents stipulating the terms of his… well… let’s just say it rhymes with “tankruptcy”).
