AT&T Faces Second Class Action Lawsuit Over a Major Data Breach Exposing 70 Million Customers’ Data

Another class action lawsuit has been filed against AT&T by Beasley Allen on behalf of AT&T customers whose personal information was compromised during a cyberattack.

According to the lawsuit, AT&T failed to secure customers’ personal information properly, including full names, email addresses, mailing addresses, phone numbers, social security numbers, date of birth, AT&T account numbers and passcodes, on behalf of Scott Mathews and all others similarly situated.

Despite notifying customers around March 31 of the breach, AT&T failed to provide critical information about the breach, including when it occurred and when it was investigated, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges AT&T should have also explained to its current and former customers why it waited over three years to inform them of the breach.
