Millions of current and former AT&T customers learned over the weekend that hackers have likely stolen their personal information and are sharing it on the dark web. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/att-data-breach-2024-cbs-news-explains/

Yes. I received one and am now signed up. Go to Have I Been Pwned: Check if your email has been compromised in a data breach and input your email address. The site will tell where your email address has been found on the darkweb.

It should have a code in the email and then just go to the site yourself. It's real but always better to do it yourself instead of clicking the link.

Everyone's email is going to be there but the email address isn't worth much.


Credit cards or banking accts all offer the dark web searches and credit alerts. I was alerted before AT&T sent me the email. AT&T email also seemed to downplay what was actually leaked in the email. I have my report locked or frozen, you can do it for free or pay with many services.
