●● Accountancy of Sirius ‘Open Source’ Declines to Comment on Fraud at Sirius ‘Open Source’


Posted in Deception, Fraud, Free/Libre Software, GNU/Linux at 10:39 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz


Summary: GNU/Linux administrators and programmers were robbed by a company that calls itself ‘Open Source’; what we see now is a bunch of firms ‘passing the buck’ to avoid being held accountable for the theft


↺ ‘passing the buck’


MAYBE this was expected, but it’s worth noting regardless. Yesterday we mentioned communications sent to the firm that does accounting for Sirius ‘Open Source’. We contacted the accounting firm, urging it to refrain from collaborating and cautioning it that Sirius adopted its office address to make litigation harder if not impossible (the CEO moreover ran away, complicating matters further). What accountant wishes to associate with that, e.g. doing the accounting for or working with a company that commits financial fraud and moreover allowing that company to register with one’s own office address (to pretend to have an office)?

Today, after 3 days, we can finally say that the accounting firm has no comment on the matter. A non-comment is perhaps seen as “safer” than doing something about it (except perhaps in private; time will tell). For the time being we won’t mention the accounting firm as we cannot demonstrate complicity or culpability. It certainly seems like they’re just signing off papers without actually checking what they do. For about 3 or 4 years already the company has not even sent physical payslips (sometimes not electronic either). It is of course a legal requirement. █

> Image: Your employer must provide you with a payslip. They do not have to do this if you’re: not an employee or ‘worker’, for example a contractor or freelancer; in the police service; a merchant seaman; a master or crew member working in share fishing (paid by a share in the profits or gross earnings of a fishing vessel); Your payslips can be used as proof of your earnings, tax paid and any pension contributions. Employers can choose whether they provide printed or electronic (online) payslips. Payslips must be provided on or before payday.
