TalkTalk and Wipro still TalkTalking?

[Reblogged from the AVIEN blog]

A slightly opaque story about TalkTalk and arrests at the Indian call centre it’s been using to lighten its support load.

• My commentary for IT Security UK: Wipro Wipeout? Call Centres and Scams
• David Bisson for Graham Cluley’s blog: TalkTalk phone scams: arrests made at Indian call center
• Shaun Nichols for The Register: Indian call centre workers accused of harvesting data
• Geoff White for Channel 4 (UK)

Adding to AVIEN’s Support Scam Resource Page, though it’s not clear exactly what the scam was from TalkTalk’s statements.
