T-Mobile announced that a criminal hack accessed data of some prepaid wireless customers' accounts.

The wireless provider's cybersecurity team discovered the breach recently and shut down malicious, unauthorized access to some prepaid accounts, T-Mobile said in a security notice posted on company's website.

T-Mobile says it notified law enforcement about the breach, which led to some exposure of personal information, including names and billing addresses, phone numbers, account numbers, and wireless plan information.

Neither Social Security numbers nor credit card information or other financial data were accessed, T-Mobile says, and no passwords were compromised.
