“The texts offer the employee $300 per SIM swap, and asks the worker to contact them on telegram.”
The texts claim the numbers came “from the T-Mo employee directory” and reached current corporate staff, third-party retail workers and people who left months ago. T-Mobile’s answer is “We did not have a systems breach.” Somebody has a list of the people holding the keys to customer phone numbers, and T-Mobile won’t say where it came from. At $300 a swap, the security of your bank account depends on a retail worker turning down a week’s groceries.
