Trump Mobile confirms it exposed customers’ personal data, including phone numbers and home addresses

Phone provider Trump Mobile has confirmed that it exposes customer names, email addresses, postal addresses, phone numbers and order IDs for the open internet.

Chris Walker, a spokesman for the Trump-branded phone maker, told TechCrunch that the company is investigating the exposure and has found no evidence of content or financial information being leaked online. The company said there was no hacking of Trump Mobile’s network, systems or infrastructure.

The exposure is linked to a third-party platform provider that supports “certain Trump Mobile operations,” the spokesperson said. Walker did not provide the name of the provider.

The company’s admission came after reports earlier this week that Trump Mobile customer data is publicly accessible through the Internet.

On Wednesday, two YouTubers who requested Trump Mobile said a researcher alerted them that their personal information had been exposed online. YouTubers Coffeezilla and penguinz0 said they tried to alert Trump Mobile of the exposure after the researcher also tried, but to no avail.

Walker said Trump Mobile is evaluating whether it needs to notify customers about the disclosure of their personal data.
