T-Mobile data breach compromised 37 million customers' data
of around 37 million postpaid and prepaid customers in another major data breach. The carrier said in a regulatory filing that it discovered the issue on January 5th, but that it believes the bad actors had been taking data from the company since November 25th. In a postthe breach, T-Mobile revealed that the hackers used an API to steal customer information.
While the company was able to contain the issue 24 hours after discovering the malicious activity, the bad actors have had access to its data long enough to have stolen people's names, billing addresses, emails, phone numbers and birthdays. They were also able to obtain users' account numbers and information about their plans, such as the number of lines they have. T-Mobile said, however, that it didn't find evidence that its network or systems had been breached or compromised.
The carrier is still investigating the incident to get a more detailed view of what happened, but it has already warned investors that it would likely incur significant costs due to the incident. According to , the Federal Communications Commission has also opened an investigation into T-Mobile, because as a spokesperson told the publication,"this incident is the latest in a string of data breaches at the company."You can disable notifications at any time in your settings menu.
