    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Multiple T-Mobile customers on X (formerly Twitter) and Reddit have reported that they’re able to see other users’ account data — including their current credit balance, purchase history, credit card information, and home address — when signing into their own T-Mobile accounts.

    Some T-Mobile customers have mentioned seeing information from several other accounts, but the scale of the issue isn’t yet clear.

    It’s prevalent enough that the T-Mobile subreddit has asked its users to avoid posting any further information for “security reasons.”

    T-Mobile later blamed the issue on a “technology update” glitch and said the problem had been fixed as of Wednesday afternoon.

    This was a temporary system glitch related to a planned overnight technology update involving limited account information for fewer than 100 customers, which was quickly resolved,” T-Mobile spokesperson Tara Darrow said in a statement emailed to The Verge.

    The company has already had multiple security lapses this year, disclosing two separate cybersecurity attacks in January and May.
