Telecom Reps Create Unauthorized Accounts and Bill Customers Who Never Signed Up

T-Mobile sales reps created an active account and charged $601 to a consumer who explicitly declined to sign up during a sales call. Because no account number existed, the customer had no reference point to dispute charges and was unable to reach the right department. This unauthorized account creation pattern represents a serious consumer fraud gap with no automated detection or prevention mechanism.
