Revolut attackers threaten daily customer data leaks

Summary

Attackers who accessed sensitive Revolut customer data have started posting it online and are threatening daily leaks until Revolut “pays.” Reported exposed data includes selfies and identity documents tied to tennis player Alexander Shevchenko and Gamdom CEO Felix Römer. Revolut said the leak stems from a sophisticated impersonation scam using a legitimate government-domain email to submit fraudulent information requests. The stolen data may include full names, dates of birth, occupations, contact details, account statements, and full transaction histories, including Bitcoin transactions. Revolut says only a limited number of customers were affected, and its systems and customer funds were not impacted.
