Revolut says some customer data were exposed in email-based scam

Revolut said a “limited number” of customers had sensitive information disclosed in a scam involving an unauthorised third party that used a legitimate government email domain.
The financial technology firm said it blocked the address after detecting the scheme and alerted the “relevant government agency”, law enforcement, data-protection officials and financial regulators. TechCrunch earlier reported the breach on Sept 12.
“Revolut systems and customer funds are unaffected,” a Revolut spokesperson said Sept 12 by email. “We have contacted the limited number of impacted individuals directly to inform them and provide support.”
