Follow up on hacking of AT&T accounts

Follow up on Hacking of AT&T accounts

Last November our AT&T phone accounts were hacked.  I blogged about it.  Even as of last week people have found my blog and posted their similar stories to it.  I have passed their stories along to AT&T.  Since I don't personally know the people who have added to my blog, all I can do is share their stories.  Today AT&T sent me this response.  I hope it may be helpful in the future.
