T-Mobile's McAfee sign up page requires that you supply SSN and DOB
Requiring T-Mobile's victims of ID theft to supply their SSN and DOB to enroll in McAfee's ID Theft protection seems to be adding to the injury. Why is this necessary just to enroll? For enrollment...
It's all meaningless anyway. After you get an account set up with McAfee, they will randomly lock
your account and provide NO means of getting it unlocked [no, not a too many bad logins]. On contacting T-Mobile, they will connect you to McAfee who will say they will fix it by sending you an e-mail. That never happens [no, not in spam] so your account will be permanently locked out with no recourse. Wasted an hour on this this morning.
At this point, should the T-Mobile data breach result in any issues, we'll be forced to file suit. I think what we'll have to do is file suit to get T-Mobile to pay for a data protection service that actually exists.
How in the bloody hell does McAfee stay in business?
