Hi,
You may be in receipt of a legal notices, which I sent a month ago through the legal advisers. Secondly, I can not arrange or allow any pick-up of the same because we are formed a group "Sue ITBC Movement" and we are united to get justice. You can deal further at

Sue ITBC Movement | Gathering Momentum

Hi,

The Sue ITBC Movement is gaining momentum very fast.

Our plan of action:

Activity Target
Increasing members Have 1,000 members by the end of November.
Getting legal help Prepare a draft of the case to be filed by end of November
Building a database of media to be approached Have a list of at least 1,000 journalists across national magazines and city-level English and regional newspapers

(The idea is to have individual journalist’s names and IDs so that we send mails to individuals rather than letters to editor. That way some one or the other will pick up our story)
Researching and documenting information about:

1. Handing the investigation of ITBC to CBI
2. International bodies and laws governing mail-order business and sales practices
3. National legal entities dealing with Sales Malpractices
4. NGOs supporting consumer groups
5. Filing cases in consumer courts (and getting all the paperwork ready)
a. The plan is to file the case in both consumer and criminal courts Having all information about all these ready by end of November
Making a contact list of all partners of Living Media (national and international) We will send mails warning the partners of the fraud that this company is running and ask them to terminate their partnership with Living Media

A number of people have volunteered to work on these activities and our juggernaut is rolling fast.

ITBC | Proposal For A Class Action Suit | Next Steps

Hi,

I am Sujata Garimella.

On August 25th I had got in touch with some victims of ITBC’s cheating and malpractices proposing a Class Action Suit.

I have started a movement for this @ ITBC | Sue Them

I had requested affected people to join in (ref attached doc: Proposal_for_a_Class_Action_Suit.doc) and I am happy to say that there are 167 members on this site now.

A representative of ITBC got in touch with me willing to close my case. But I firmly told him that it was not about me as an individual any more and he needed to address the concerns of the whole group. (ref attached document: Proposal_for_a_Class_Action_Suit_Mail_Exchange.doc).

After the last mail that I sent on September 2nd, there has been no response.

I am now moving to the next step which is: I am consulting lawyers and all the sections that ITBC can be sued under. (With limited knowledge, I think they can be sued for tort, fraud, lying, cheating, malpractice, unfair sales practices, criminal case etc.)

If you haven’t yet become a member, I request you to join now. Please click the link:

Companies like this get away with such scams because the consumer group is pan-India. We have some fora where we post our grievances but we have never formed a united front.

Because of this certain persistent individual grievances are settled but many go un-acknowledged. Finally out of being completely fed-up, we give up following the cheaters.

Let us not let that happen this time.

The scale of ITBC’s scam is the same size in the consumer domain as was Enron’s in the government domain. Just like Enron has become a classic example of Accounting malpractices in the international arena; let us make sure that ITBC is the example of Fraudulent Sales Practises in India.

Do visit: http://www.indiatodaygroup.com/contact.php. This has a link of all India Today group contact numbers. It is very interesting to note that all products have definite names to contact except ITBC!!!

You can also check the list in the attached pps: ITBC_Missing_Contact_Name.pps

Do add your voice to our complaint and do encourage other victims to join in too.
