AT&T Customers Targeted by Hack Attack, Company Says

A handful of AT&T customers were targeted Monday by an organized hacking attack that was ultimately unsuccessful, a company spokesman tells FoxNews.com.

“We recently detected what could have been an organized attempt to obtain information on a number of customer accounts,” AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel told FoxNews.com. “The people in question appear to have used ‘auto script’ technology to determine whether AT&T telephone numbers were linked to online AT&T accounts.”
