            A former T-Mobile customer, I am apparently included in a class action settlement that is being handled by Kroll's *********************************** On 13 December 2024, I received an official looking email instructing me to register for identity protection services as part of my settlement. Two things about the email give me pause, however. First, it was sent from a domain "************" which is not obviously associated with one of Kroll's domains. Second, the email directs one to Kroll's dedicated website for the T-Mobile settlement for information, but, upon visiting the official website, one finds that the official website makes no mention whatsoever of any such email or offer of identity protection services. The official website simply reports, essentially, that the settlement is still pending. Since registering for the identity protection services involves disclosing virtually all of one's personal information, it would seem prudent to ascertain the veracity of the email before proceeding. In addition, a quick online search revealed many other parties that were concerned over the emails. As a result, I used the email listed for additional information on the official Kroll settlement page to inquire twice about the legitimacy of the email received. I received no reply to the first email, and received a seemingly automated response to the second from a yet altogether different domain that, once again, directs one to the official T-Mobile settlement page for more information, that page still containing no mention whatsoever of the identity protection service. I suspect that these emails are entirely legitimate, but I cannot explain why the official settlement website does not contain any mention of this part of the settlement! At the very least, Kroll's management of this matter seems highly unprofessional, and I want clear confirmation that these emails are not a scam before I divulge all of my personal information.

            I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and, on the basis of the confirmed information provided, I am satisfied that the emails in question were legitimate.  As a result, this matter is resolved.

            I will re-emphasize, however, that the minimal communication from this business does not inspire confidence in their professionalism.  Why do they not update their official website with this information, thereby saving everyone a lot of trouble?  Why do they not respond to emails sent to the email address that they provide for questions?  I cannot answer these questions, and apparently they can't either.  I'm not impressed.

            Sincerely,

            Complaint: 22566967

            I am rejecting this response because:

            YOU sent me the email with the details on how to activate the prepaid card, therefore, YOU and YOU alone are responsible, I will NOT spend my valuable time calling them, when YOU are the ones who did NOT do your job

            and provide payment as stated. If I am forced to call and deal with this, YOU agree to pay me $100 per hour for my time, with a one hour minimum.


            Sincerely,

            ****** ******
