In a 12-month undercover investigation, Turton infiltrates criminal networks which trade British consumers' bank and other confidential information for huge profits in India, the world's new call centre capital.

My eyes were opened at how big a scale this scam is working on, and how people are so unaware of which details they need to give out and for what.
What shocked me was when a lady gave her credit card details so that the company could do a 'minor credit check', now even I know they don't need card details for that.
Surely the best thing to do would be change your card as often as possible and cancel the cards you have given out details for to call centres? Then again would anyone want to, it's a load of hassle...
