Subject: Hackers Claim They Breached T-Mobile More Than 100 Times in
2022
Three different cybercriminal groups claimed access to internal networks
at communications giant T-Mobile in more than 100 separate incidents
throughout 2022, new data suggests. In each case, the goal of the
attackers was the same: Phish T-Mobile employees for access to internal
company tools, and then convert that access into a cybercrime service
that could be hired to divert any T-Mobile user’s text messages and
phone calls to another device.
The conclusions above are based on an extensive analysis of Telegram
chat logs from three distinct cybercrime groups or actors that have been
identified by security researchers as particularly active in and
effective at “SIM-swapping,” which involves temporarily seizing control
over a target’s mobile phone number.

Subject: Google Fi Reportedly Drops US Cellular, Leaving T-Mobile As
Last Network
Users can reportedly still access US Cellular's network while roaming
and won't be charged for it.

Google Fi, the tech company's mobile virtual network operator, once
based its service on three different carrier networks for subscribers to
hop between in search of the best signal. While that dropped to two
after the T-Mobile and Sprint merger combined networks, now that's been
limited to one after Google reportedly dropped US Cellular as an
official network.
Google Fi's support had supposedly told users that US Cellular was
going away last week, according to a Reddit post. Google Fi users can
still tap into US Cellular's network, but only while roaming, which
users still won't be charged for, a Google representative told
9to5Google.

Verizon Is Adding a New Fee to Some of Its Older Unlimited Plans
The nation's largest carrier really wants to push people to its latest
unlimited plans.
By Eli Blumenthal
Verizon is adding a new $2 fee to some of its older unlimited plans,
CNET has confirmed. The new fee, which the carrier is describing as a
"rate plan adjustment," will affect those who are on a variety of
unlimited plans, including Beyond Unlimited (and its age 55 Plus
variation), Go Unlimited and the older Verizon Unlimited plan.
Customers will begin to be told about the new charge through email,
physical mail and notices on their upcoming March bills. The new fee
-- which will be $2 per line, per month -- will start with April
bills.
