Indian call centre 'fraud' probe - BBC
Police are investigating reports that the bank account details of 1,000 UK customers, held by Indian call centres, were sold to an undercover reporter.
The Sun claims one of its journalists bought personal details including passwords, addresses and passport data from a Delhi IT worker for UK pounds 4.25 each.
But, in a BBC interview, the worker named by the paper denied the claims.
India's top software body said India was a 'trustworthy' location and would treat the claims 'extremely seriously'.
The National Association of Software and Service Companies said it would work with authorities in the UK and India to ensure criminals were 'promptly prosecuted and face the maximum penalty'.
'The problem is not unique to any single nation - it is one that affects us all - and each of us has a responsibility to take on the criminals,' its statement added.
