TE Data said in a statement on Saturday that the company’s text messages were hacked for several minutes, but the customer data system and the personal accounts and services were not.
Hackers who call themselves “The Curse of the Pharaohs” have claimed responsibility, saying they sent messages to the customers asking them to join the “Internet Revolution Youth Movement” and boycott the mobile phone service providers.
