What happened in Have I Been Pwned’s words
In September 2015, the US based credit bureau and consumer data broker Experian suffered a data breach that impacted 15 million customers who had applied for financing from T-Mobile. An alleged data breach was subsequently circulated containing personal information including names, physical and email addresses, birth dates and various other personal attributes. Multiple Have I Been Pwned subscribers verified portions of the data as being accurate, but the actual source of it was inconclusive therefor this breach has been flagged as "unverified".
