The survey by of 576 office workers in London found that women are by far more likely to give their computer login credentials to total strangers than their male colleagues in a ratio above 4/1 (45% vs. 10%).
The bogus researchers also asked for workers' names and telephone numbers, ostensibly so they could be entered into a draw to go to Paris.
