US phone giant T-Mobile is about to send $350 million to customers affected by a devastating data breach.<\/p>\n
A new update on the T-Mobile Data Breach Settlement website says<\/a> payments will begin in April.<\/p>\n The 2021 breach affected about 76 million people, exposing sensitive information like names, Social Security numbers and birth dates.<\/p>\n Those who faced out-of-pocket losses could claim up to $25,000, while others may receive $25 \u2013 or $100 for Californians \u2013 with no additional steps required for eligible class members.<\/p>\n The data breach was executed by John Binns, an American hacker based in Turkey who exploited a misconfigured internet-exposed router to access the company\u2019s internal network.<\/p>\n Over weeks starting in early 2021, he used brute force attacks and specialized tools to breach the company\u2019s servers.<\/p>\n The payments are the result of a class action lawsuit that T-Mobile decided to settle rather than fight in court.<\/p>\n People who used T-mobile in 2021 can reach out to the administrator on the settlement\u2019s website or call\u00a01-833-512-2314.<\/p>\n Don’t Miss a Beat \u2013 Subscribe<\/a> to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox <\/span><\/em>   Generated Image: Midjourney<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
