Hey Kelly,
Wow, reading about the cyber attack on T-Mobile in 2022 really hit close to home for me. It’s scary to think that such a massive communication giant fell victim to not just one, but three different cybercriminal groups. I can only imagine how it must have felt to be one of the customers who received that deceptive text message.
Phishing scams have become alarmingly sophisticated, and it’s unsettling to know that these criminals were able to make their messages appear authentic, tricking customers into providing their personal information. The ease with which they gained access to T-Mobile’s network is truly concerning, and it’s disheartening that they even boasted about it by posting daily numbers. It serves as a reminder for all of us to stay informed and take proactive measures to protect ourselves and our data.
