Revolut Leak Traced to Compromised Italian Mailbox

Revolut confirms its systems remain intact following a data leak seemingly traced to a compromised Italian government account. Attackers allegedly exploited a legitimate Italian domain to impersonate law enforcement, accessing sensitive data of nearly 680 Revolut customers. This breach may originate from the Prefecture of Reggio Calabria’s compromised mailbox, used to pose as Italian Postal Police officers. The attackers sent numerous transaction identifiers and blockchain deposit addresses, masquerading behind fraudulent European Investigation Orders to extract customer information linked to cryptocurrency transactions.

The situation underscores a trust issue in governmental communication channels. The attacker group, claiming responsibility, mentions maintaining access to Italian law enforcement systems for six months, suggesting a larger breach than initially understood. Investigators need to ascertain if this is an isolated incident or part of a larger intrusion. As the investigation continues, questions remain about the scope and initial access method used in this revolut leak traced back to Italian infrastructure.
