Another class action lawsuit has been filed against AT&T by Beasley Allen on behalf of AT&T customers whose personal information was compromised during a cyberattack.

According to the lawsuit, AT&T failed to secure customers’ personal information properly, including full names, email addresses, mailing addresses, phone numbers, social security numbers, date of birth, AT&T account numbers and passcodes, on behalf of Scott Mathews and all others similarly situated.

AT&T faces class action lawsuit over massive data breach exposing 70 million customers’ personal information Despite notifying customers around March 31 of the breach, AT&T failed to provide critical information about the breach, including when it occurred and when it was investigated, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges AT&T should have also explained to its current and former customers why it waited over three years to inform them of the breach.

“AT&T failed to protect its customers’ personal information and notify them of the data breach properly,” said Beasley Allen attorney Larry Golston said in a press release. “Our goal is to hold the company accountable and ensure that affected customers receive the compensation they deserve.”AT&T customers whose personal information was compromised may be eligible for compensation, and Beasley Allen is calling for AT&T to take precautions to prevent future breaches.
