Story: High-tech cops probe premium-rate Internet fraud
Posted by: Peter Roberts. (Wednesday 22 December 2004, 11:39 PM)
We are english living in Greece. Our eldest son downloaded free music and from then on each time we logged on to the net it was charged to a premium rate sex line. The bill was over 500 euros to be paid to ote the Greek telephone company. When we complained they said there is nothing they could do but we must pay up.

Being outside the UK who do we contact.
