Customers of Bulldog were naturally concerned when it emerged that an unspecified security breach had allowed the personal details of 100,000 customers to be stolen (here).

Today the BBC is reporting that Cable & Wireless (C&W), Bulldog's previous owners during the theft, have served an injunction against former executive Seemab Zafar to return a database of customer details:


It's understood that the database was stolen at the same time as an employee went on a business trip to Pakistan in 2005. They never returned and were promptly sacked. C&W believes Zafar has destroyed the details, but can’t be certain that they weren’t sold on to somebody else.
