Crims slurp data on 40 million T-Mobile US customers
T-Mobile US today said someone abused an API to download the personal information of 37 million subscribers.[PDF] disclosed one or more miscreants were able to access potentially the"name, billing address, email, phone number, date of birth, T-Mobile account number and information such as the number of lines on the account and plan features" of each affected customer.
Note the use of"directly" – an apparent acknowledgement that the siphoned records can be used as the basis for phishing, identity theft, and the like, meaning pain could be felt weeks or months after folks are warned of the security fiasco. The SEC filing, meanwhile, added the carrier spotted"a bad actor was obtaining data through a single Application Programming Interface without authorization" on January 5, 2023. Subsequent investigations led to the conclusion the intruder was using the API for evil as early as November 25, 2022.
