Hackers are breaking into AT&T email accounts to steal cryptocurrency

Geeze - if these guys are so good at breaking into accounts I might like to use them as a service. I tried many times to get into my att account and failed - I talked to customer service - fail.

Got escalated to some 'upper level customer service' people - and we went through multiple ways to reset - all failed. I tried the get postcard in the mail and so many things - I just gave up. Hours on the phone.. no more.

and now hackers are getting in without any problem - fml.

The cryptocurrency part seems like a side tangent. The big story is hackers have had access to AT&T 's servers for over 5 months without them noticing! That's a huge fuck up which I'm surprised is not being more widely reported.
