YouTubers Voidzilla and penguinz0 (via TechCrunch ), both of whom had ordered the T1 Phone, were reportedly contacted by someone who claimed to have
carried out a very simple security exploit on the Trump Mobile website, which gave them access to customer information. This includes names, addresses, email addresses, and according to Voidzilla everything short of credit card number.

The source provided proof that they had access to seemingly the whole database, so thats a lot of leaked information, and neither they nor the YouTubers have managed to get a response about it from Trump Mobile at the time of writing.
The source seemingly doesn't intend to use the data they found, but the data is reportedly still online and accessible to anyone who figures out the exploit. An unpopular prospect (Image credit: Trump Mobile) Interestingly, this data also revealed that seemingly only around 30,000 orders have
actually been placed for the T1 Phone, and only from roughly 10,000 distinct customers. Its unclear whether the Trump Mobile service plan counts as a separate order to the phone, but if so, that would partially account for so many people placing multiple orders.
Regardless, that 30,000 figure is a long, long way short of previous
estimates of around 590,000, so its not clear whats going on here. But if there really have only been around 30,000 orders, then the T1 Phone is far from a success, which might explain why it keeps being delayed, because it might no longer be a priority for the company.
