According to Foresight News, a hacker who claimed to have stolen sensitive call and text records from U.S. telecom company AT&T stated they received approximately $400,000 to delete these databases. An analysis of the Bitcoin wallet address provided by the hacker indicated that a transaction in mid-May matched the ransom payment. A person familiar with ransomware negotiations confirmed that AT&T paid the hackers, though it remains unclear if the payment was made directly or through a third party.
