At this time, we have no information that indicates passwords, postpaid PIN
numbers, or financial or payment information have been compromised. T-Mobile
customers, it’s always a good practice to regularly update your PIN/Passcode to
help keep your account secure. 

Provided below are some general recommendations for protecting yourself, as well
as information on how to obtain a free credit report and place a fraud alert or
security freeze on your credit report.

 * General Recommendations for Protecting Yourself
 * Information on Obtaining a Free Credit Report
 * Information on Implementing a Fraud Alert or Security Freeze

 * Additional Resources

 


GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROTECTING YOURSELF

 * It is always a good idea to remain vigilant against threats of identity theft
   or fraud, and to regularly review and monitor your account statements and
   credit history for any signs of unauthorized transactions or activity.
 * If you ever suspect that you are the victim of identity theft or fraud, you
   have the right to file a report with the police or law enforcement. In
   addition, you may contact the FTC or your state’s attorney general to learn
   more about the steps you can take to protect yourself against identity
   theft. Please see below for information on how to contact the FTC, and your
   state’s attorney general.
 * It is always a good idea to be alert for “phishing” emails by someone who
   acts like they know you or are a company that you may do business with and
   requests sensitive information over email, such as passwords, Social Security
   numbers, or bank account information. We do not ask for this type of
   information over email.
 * If you believe you are a victim of fraud or identity theft, you can contact
   your local law enforcement agency, your state’s attorney general, or the
   Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Please know that contacting us will not
   expedite any remediation of suspicious activity.

 


INFORMATION ON OBTAINING A FREE CREDIT REPORT

U.S. residents are entitled under U.S. law to one free credit report annually
from each of the three major credit bureaus. To order your free credit reports,
visit www.annualcreditreport.com or call toll-free from the U.S. at +1
(877) 322-8228.

 


INFORMATION ON IMPLEMENTING A FRAUD ALERT OR SECURITY FREEZE

You may contact any one of the three major credit bureaus at the addresses below
to place a fraud alert on your credit report. A fraud alert indicates to anyone
requesting your credit file that you suspect you are a possible victim of fraud.
A fraud alert does not affect your ability to get a loan or credit. Instead, it
alerts a business that your personal information might have been compromised and
requires that business to verify your identity before issuing you credit.
Although this may cause some short delay if you are the one applying for the
credit, it might protect against someone else obtaining credit in your name.

A security freeze prohibits a credit reporting agency from releasing any
information from a consumer’s credit report without written authorization.
However, please be aware that placing a security freeze on your credit report
may delay, interfere with or prevent the timely approval of any requests you
make for new loans, credit, mortgages, employment, housing or other services.

A credit reporting agency may not charge you to place, temporarily lift, or
permanently remove a security freeze.

To place a fraud alert or security freeze on your credit report, you must
contact the three credit bureaus below:

Equifax:

Consumer Fraud Division

P.O. Box 740256

TransUnion:

TransUnion LLC

P.O. Box 2000

Chester, PA 19016

+1 (800) 680-7289

www.transunion.com

To request a security freeze, you will need to provide the following
information:

 1. Your full name (including middle initial as well as Jr., Sr., II, III, etc.
 2. Social Security number;
 3. Date of birth;
 4. If you have moved in the past five (5) years, the addresses where you have
