It has been discovered that Sprint has a serious security risk for its users.

By dialing a toll free Sprint number, a person can enter the number of any Sprint phone and obtain the name, address, and even information regarding other people who may have lived at that address.

Please contact Sprint and request them close this security hole with Sprint's international call identity verification service.
