Attorney General Herbert H. Slatery III is urging all Tennessee residents who may have been affected by a data breach announced by T-Mobile in August 2021 to take appropriate steps to protect their information from identity theft. T-Mobile said at the time that the breach involved the sensitive personal information of 53 million current, former and prospective customers, including 757,354 in Tennessee. Slatery said today that a large subset of the compromised information has now emerged for sale on the dark web. A statement from his office outlines the action individuals can take to protect themselves.
