A pedestrian walks by a sign posted in front of an AT&T store on June 20, 2023 in San Francisco, California.
Hackers stole six months' worth of call and text message records of nearly every AT&T cellular network customer, the company said Friday.
The data contains records of calls and texts between approximately May 1 and Oct. 31, 2022, and on Jan. 2, 2023.
The content of the calls and messages was not compromised and customers' personal information was not accessed — but the records did include phone numbers.
The company sought to assure customers that, at least as of Friday, "AT&T does not believe that the data is publicly available."
