What would you do with 17 million people? I mean you could very well pretend you are either one of them. You’d have birth dates, telephone numbers, addresses and email addresses. If you were Deutsche Telekom you’d better hang on to them very carefully. If not, who knows what might happen with them.

Because that’s exactly what happen with some 17 million customer accounts from T-Mobile Germany. The German carrier says bank details were not stolen. And it looks like the data is circulating around the web but it hasn’t been sold yet on the black market. I guess we’ll be waiting for those angry complaints from T-Mobile’s customers soon.

What is T-Mobile going to do about it? Working with the authorities to protect the customers affected by the whole thing. Wow. I feel so safe not being a German T-Mobile subscriber right about now…
