ATLANTA, GA - Attorney General Chris Carr is urging T-Mobile customers in Georgia to protect their personal information after compromised customer data was found on the dark web following T-Mobile's data breach announced in August 2021. This breach may affect current, former and prospective customers. Prospective customers include those who began the process to enroll with T-Mobile but ultimately did not obtain service.
"Given the broad scope of T-Mobile's data breach and news that this compromised data has been found on the dark web, it is imperative that current, former and prospective customers take the necessary steps to prevent identity theft or worse," said Carr. "Our first priority is to protect our state's consumers, and we stand ready to assist Georgia customers to ensure their personal information is not stolen. Georgians affected by this breach should monitor their accounts, including their credit, and take all other necessary measures to keep their data safe from fraudsters and thieves."
