黑客以680个账户数据为筹码,要求24小时内支付6000枚门罗币

勒索者要求支付价值约300万美元的6000枚门罗币(XMR),否则将公开涉及约680名客户账户的数据。Revolut方面表示,其核心系统及客户资金均未受到侵害。

泄露的身份记录及交易历史可能使用户面临人身安全风险。自称“iamnotavillain”的组织威胁要出售这些客户数据。Revolut强调,其系统和客户资金保持安全,且公司未通过正式渠道收到任何此类要求。据报道,密码、私钥及完整的卡片详细信息均未被触及。

门罗币勒索事件紧随数月的欺诈性数据请求之后

据《金融时报》报道,攻击者利用被攻陷的意大利政府电子邮件系统冒充执法部门。有效的域名验证使得这些请求通过了Revolut的安全检查。据报道,该行动持续数月,但并未突破Revolut的核心系统。

据称,泄露的记录包括护照、驾照、KYC自拍照、地址、IBAN号码、对账单、取款记录以及加密货币交易历史。该组织声称持有147GB的数据,并向《金融时报》展示了一段看似显示这些文件的录音。

此次门罗币勒索事件源于针对拥有大量加密货币持仓账户的区块链分析。据报道,大多数目标用户居住在瑞士和法国,尽管其他31个欧洲国家的居民也受到影响。

Revolut Monero ransom raises questions about regulatory controls

Revolut has notified affected customers, regulators and law enforcement. The British Information Commissioner's Office and Italian authorities are investigating this. Because Revolut's registered office is in Lithuania, officials in that country are also exchanging relevant information.

Prosecutors are investigating whether government mailboxes were infiltrated or cloned. Italy's privacy authority has urged banks to review similar vulnerabilities and report possible leaks.

Monero is a privacy currency that hides sender, recipient and amount data by default. TRM Labs pointed out that while ransomware actors prefer XMR, most settlements still use Bitcoin because it provides deeper liquidity.

This public Monero extortion case is rare because blackmailers often contact victims privately before issuing threats. In addition to the $3 million extortion amount, Revolut also faces control issues that go beyond this scope.

Although client funds remain intact, this incident exposed weaknesses in verifying official information requests. These weaknesses may cause scrutiny in future bank and license reviews.
