AT&T has fixed several problems that caused some AT&T customers to log into the wrong Facebook account when using their mobile phones, an AT&T spokesman said on Monday: “In a limited number of instances, a server software connectivity error resulted in some AT&T wireless customers being logged in to the wrong Facebook account when they accessed Facebook through their mobile phones.”<\/p>\n

AT&T added new security measures to prevent the problem from happening again and worked with Facebook to disable subscriber identification information as an option for automatic log-on, Coe said. The subscriber identification is the session identification number that gets added to the URL, he said.<\/p>\n

AT&T also fixed a separate problem in which a customer in Atlanta was able to log into the wrong Facebook account on a mobile phone. In that “isolated” case, the problem was due to a misdirected cookie on the customer’s phone, Coe said.<\/p>\n

“We worked with the customer to resolve the issue,” he said. “It is unclear how this cookie was set on the phone.”<\/p>\n

Asked for comment, a Facebook spokesman said: “We don’t have anything more than what AT&T is saying.”<\/p>\n

The Associated press<\/a> first reported on the problems this weekend.<\/p>\n
