T-Mobile tweaks data breach statement again, now says nothing was compromised

Filed under: T-Mobile

Once again, T-Mobile has released a statement regarding the alleged hack into its systems last weekend, and it's backtracked a bit from the last one -- now, it's starting to sound like no data was stolen at all. Here's what we've got this time around from a company spokesperson:

"Following a recent online posting that someone allegedly accessed T-Mobile servers, the company is conducting a thorough investigation and at this time has found no evidence that customer information, or other company information, has been compromised. Reports to the contrary are inaccurate and should be corrected. T-Mobile continues to monitor this situation and as a precaution has taken additional measures to further ensure our customers' information and our systems are protected. As is our standard practice, customers can be assured if there is any evidence that customer or system information has been compromised, we would inform those affected as quickly as possible."

We're taking this as a good sign for customers at this point, but it's hard to say how many more statements we'll get before the matter's fully closed, so stay tuned.
