Dave,

Miss a payment and wireless phone companies in India will call the most 
frequently called numbers on your phone to complain that you haven't 
paid your bill.

http://www.livejournal.com/users/mannu/225461.html is a blogger 
narrating his run-in with Hutch India[1], which BTW is the Indian 
roaming partner for T-Mobile.

India's lack of effective privacy laws is scary. The story you carried 
on source code theft in India a couple of days back is another incident 
where the legal system remains highly deficient.
