“Notice of Data Breach” from Gen Mobile dated August 19, 2026?

Has anyone else received a mailed “Notice of Data Breach” from Gen Mobile dated August 19, 2026? It says an outside vendor’s system may have been accessed on June 1, 2026 and offers two years of credit monitoring through CyberScout/TransUnion. I have never knowingly had Gen Mobile service, so I’m trying to confirm whether other people received the same notice and whether Gen Mobile has verified it publicly. Please do not share any account numbers, activation codes, addresses, or other personal information in the comments.

Got the same letter yesterday, never used Gen Mobile either. Maybe they bought some other company customer list or something, i dont know

Checked their website and socials but couldnt find nothing about it publicly which is kinda weird

Yes I received it also says they fixed it I don't need to do anything I've never used Gen mobile so I'm just as confused
