T-Mobile has recently been attacked through certain employee emails. Since the hackers went through the security by employee emails certain customers and employees have had their information compromised. Immediately after the breach was found there was an investigation involving the leaders in cyber security. Thankfully social security numbers and financial information was not stolen. However some information that was stolen unfortunately includes name, address, phone numbers and account numbers. The company is still identifying who exactly had their information stolen, but in the mean time they want customers to reset their account PINs. Their is also the unfortunate fact that costumers that are compromised will most likely be targeted by scammers. This is also not the first time this type of incident has happened it also happened in 2018.
