I don't specifically mean those that take calls for VM, I meant offshore call centres in general.
It was on the news ages ago so will probably be online. It said that they'd tried to stop it by banning them having pens at work etc.
There have also been cases where disgruntled employees have tried to intimidate or frighten customers. One man had an argument with one from Amazon and started getting books related to murder sent to him.
I once gave an Amazon woman a poor review because of the standard of her English. The cheeky **** rang me to complain, so I told her to go away or i'd make a complaint. Shortly afterwards my Amazon account was found to have been closed & a few weeks later someone tried to order goods from a catalogue in London with my details.
I really dislike the whole thing as it's impossible for the companies that use them to control them properly, but they're cheap so...

Scammers try by saying things like they need to double check the details that they hold etc.
