Hacker breaks into T-Mobile network exposing Secret Service emails
A hacker accessed the Bellevue based T-Mobile system for at least seven months, reading emails and files of hundreds of customers including a Secret Service agent investigating the breach. The intrusion yielded an internal memo and treaty text, with court records noting access to highly sensitive criminal case information. Nicolas Jacobsen of Santa Ana, California, faces U S charges. Investigators traced activity to a Buffalo area hotel. Credit card data remained safe and customer notices were issued.
