Trump Mobile’s first smartphone, reportedly a rebranded HTC U24 Pro, was delayed from an expected August or September shipment window and is now described as imminent. The company confirmed that customer information was exposed on its website, including names, phone numbers, home addresses, and email addresses. Trump Mobile is investigating the exposure and has not found evidence of malicious use. The exposure was linked to a third-party platform provider supporting certain company operations, though the provider was not identified. The company stated there was no breach of its network, systems, or infrastructure, and is evaluating whether customer notifications are required.
"Trump Mobile has confirmed to TechCrunch that it has exposed customer information, including names, phone numbers, home addresses, and email addresses on its website. The company is currently investigating the exposure and hasn't yet found any evidence of nefarious use. The exposure was apparently linked to a third-party platform provider that supports "certain Trump Mobile operations", according to Trump Mobile spokesperson Chris Walker. That platform provider hasn't been named, though."
"The company insists that there was no breach of its network, systems, or infrastructure, which is funny because there was no need for a breach - all of the aforementioned customer data was out for anyone to find on its website. Anyway, Walker says Trump Mobile is now "evaluating whether it needs to notify customers of the exposure of their personal data"."
"The company's first smartphone, by all accounts a rebranded HTC U24 Pro, which is a device launched in 2024, was first supposed to start shipping in August or September of last year. Obviously, that didn't happen, but shipments are now supposedly imminent. But now there's another problem."
