Google Fi confirms hacking of customers’ information
By MYBRANDBOOK
Google’s cell network provider, Google Fi has confirmed a data breach which allowed hackers to steal millions of customers’ information. This is related to the recent security incident at T-Mobile. Google said that the primary network provider for Google Fi recently informed the company through email that there had been suspicious activity relating to a third-party support system containing a “limited amount” of Google Fi customer data.
This breach, disclosed on January 19, allowed intruders access to a trove of personal data belonging to 37 million customers, including billing addresses, dates of birth and T-Mobile account details. This is the eighth time T-Mobile has been hacked since 2018.
“The accessed information included your phone number and limited technical information, including information about when your account was activated, SIM card serial number, account status (for example, whether your plan is active or inactive), and limited details about the mobile service plan and options provided by your Google Fi service (such as unlimited SMS or international roaming)," the Google Fi email said.
According to the Google email, "the data does not contain your name, date of birth, email address, payment card information, social security number or tax IDs, driver’s license or other form of government ID, or financial account information, passwords or PINs that you may use for Google Fi, or the contents of any SMS messages or calls."
