Total Wireless, a telecommunications provider, has formally reported a significant data breach to the Montana Attorney General's Office on January 9, 2026.

The compromised information includes Full Name, Email Address, Mailing Address, Cellular Account Number, Account Passcode and Security PIN, Payment Card Information, Billing History, and Government-Issued ID Details.
