Revolut data breach exposes 680 clients; hackers demand $3 million in Monero

Revolut confirmed that personal data of 680 clients was disclosed after attackers impersonated Italian government officials to submit fraudulent Emergency Data Requests. The group, calling itself "iamnotavillain," demanded 6,000 XMR (approximately $3 million) by September 17. Revolut denies any system intrusion or receipt of a direct ransom demand, noting that the attackers exploited the emergency request process rather than software vulnerabilities. The compromised data includes passports, driver's licenses, KYC photos, and transaction histories.
