Revolut attackers threaten daily customer data leaks

Attackers have reportedly published identity documents and selfies belonging to Revolut customers and are threatening to release additional customer data each day unless the fintech company pays, according to Cointelegraph.

The reported material includes sensitive verification information commonly used in account onboarding and identity checks. If authentic, the exposure could raise risks for affected customers, including identity fraud and phishing attempts that use personal information to appear credible.

Revolut is a financial technology company that provides digital banking and payments services. Customer identity documents and selfies are typically collected as part of know-your-customer procedures required for many regulated financial services.

The attackers’ reported demand and threat of recurring disclosures place the incident in the category of an alleged extortion attempt. Customers should remain alert to unexpected messages claiming to be from financial providers and avoid sharing security credentials or verification codes.
