Confidential Access.com Novelty TSB statements

I don't know if anyone has read the recent news of a website selling 'novelty' items such as driving licences, editable bank statements, utility bills.

Looks like the site still has things like
LloydsTSB Home Design Kit. Yours for £25.

I don't know...how many 'novelty' documents do you need to take over someone's account.

TSB, certainly in the past, seem very relaxed about security. Surely if they wanted to do something about a site selling, what could be considered copyright infringement products or worse, they could.

If it is that much of a problem, why does the site still operate?

Searches of the website's servers in Hong Kong revealed that between 2002 and 2009 Mr Place had netted more than £850,000 from orders for fake paperwork.
The court heard Mr Powell-Richards allowed Mr Place and Mr Sales to use his accounts with Experian and Equifax to trawl credit ratings and more than 2,000 searches were made via his firm M Nightingale.
Mr Swift said: "His role was to allow Sales and Place to use his accounts to research names and addresses to identify suitable creditworthy victim identities.

so experian did you help those people for free?
