T-Mobile Is Sending a Mass Text Warning of ‘Industry-Wide’ Phone Hijacking Scam

If you’re a customer of T-Mobile in the United States, you may have recently gotten a somewhat alarming, and perhaps confusing, text message. This is a legitimate, real T-Mobile alert, the company confirmed to Motherboard on Monday. A company representative said T-Mobile is messaging its “entire post-paid customer base,” but some customers may have yet to receive the alert as “that takes time and can’t be done all at once.”
