Highly sensitive financial information, including credit card details, bank account numbers, telephone numbers and even PINs are available to the highest bidder... The information being traded on the web has been intercepted by a British company and collated into a single database for the first time.

His sources include law enforcement from around the world, such as British police and the FBI, anti-phishing and hacking campaigners and members of the public. Mr Holder said he had invested £160,000 in the venture so far. He plans to offset the cost by charging members of the public for access to his database to check whether their data security has been breached. Four million British identities are up for sale on the internet (via Making Light)...
