About This Breach

The exposed archive contains approximately 36,000,000 subscriber profiles. Forensic inspection reveals unencrypted personally identifiable information including 10-digit Mexican mobile phone numbers, full customer legal names, street addresses, neighborhood designations (colonia), municipality (municipio), and state records.

The wide availability of residential geolocation and active cellular contact information presents substantial exposure to telephonic extortion, SIM swap scams, and synthetic identity schemes throughout Mexico.
