This year a series of fast food restaurants across America have been damaged by their own employees. In each case workers smashed out windows after receiving a call from the fire department who warned them about a gas leak. But the thousands of dollars in damage were really the result of illegal prank calls, broadcast live on the internet. This week on Trending we’ve been investigating the online communities responsible, hoping to find out who’s behind the crimes, why they’re committing them and whether they’re getting out of hand.
