TREE NEWS reports: Revolut is suspected of failing to identify a fraudulent request, exposing personally identifiable information of some users. The leaked data includes passport or driver’s licence copies and verification selfies, account statements, IBANs, withdrawal records, full transaction history including bitcoin trades, plus names, dates of birth, occupations, home addresses, emails and phone numbers. ZachXBT said the number of affected users may be limited but appeared to target high-net-worth individuals. Several Revolut users received security alert emails yesterday.

The exposure is notable less for its scale than for its composition: identity documents, selfies and full transaction histories are the raw material for convincing account-takeover and social-engineering attempts, and the apparent targeting of high-net-worth individuals suggests the data was curated rather than opportunistically scraped. For crypto-adjacent users, transaction histories that include bitcoin trades can link on-chain activity to verified real-world identities, a persistent privacy risk that outlasts any single breach. Whether Revolut confirms the suspected verification failure and how affected users are notified are the open questions.
