Author Topic: T-Mobile was hacked, 15 million addresses, names, and SSNs numbers stolen  (Read 1943 times)

happy for free 2 years of credit monitoring and happy that we weren't included in it.

Oh look another corporation getting hacked. One of these days hackers get into Microsoft and exploit their data collecting technology and I will say I told you so.


It's a shared blame, no one person or company alone is to blame, really common actually. Usually if you're giving sensitive information (especially social security numbers) to someone you want to make extra sure that it's gonna be safe, and that obviously didn't happen here.
t-mobile has nothing to do with it. chances are, they don't even know enough about experian's security to "make sure"
it's not Bank of America's fault if MasterCard gets hacked. being a client doesn't mean you share any of the blame when they mess up

does this affect only t-mobile users or literally everyone who has used experian in the past two years.

Only t-mobile users, the rest of their database was apparently not compromised. It's also quite nice of T-mobile to be giving out 2 years of credit monitoring and identity theft protection, not sure how much good it'll do but I suppose we'll see

Gonna add in one quick thing: If you know someone else who has t-mobile, like a parent or a friend or whatever you should probably let them know too.


T-Mobile doesn't even work where I live although we tried it. I guess I should be glad.
Verizon ftw



verizon is stuff.
sprint is great.

That is an extremely bold statement

Praising Sprint for being "good"

Damn it, stuff like this just makes Internet regulation bills sound like a good idea.

Ive had nothing but great experiences with sprint
Plus I pay almost NOTHING for my bill and have great service almost everywhere I go
