The FTC is distributing $6.3M in refunds to 267,000 former AT&T Wireless customers as part of a 2019 data-throttling settlement; the announcement notes that checks and PayPal payments will be issued and warns recipients to beware of phishing and scam attempts. The report also references a recent AT&T data breach and the leak of customer information affecting roughly 51 million people, elevating risk of fraud tied to the refund program.
