The names and addresses of people using T-Mobile? I’ve not dug into it, but there are definitely databases out there with phone number => provider, and plenty of databases with phone number => name and address. I assume there are multiple out there than combine them.

Are those lists complete? Absolutely not. But complete enough to send out a bunch of fake warnings to some randos.
