Revolut Data Leak May Trace Back to Compromised Italian Government Accounts
Attackers using a compromised Italian government PEC account impersonated law enforcement to obtain data on ~680 Revolut customers.
Revolut confirmed its systems were not breached; fraudulent data requests came from a compromised PEC mailbox tied to the Prefecture of Reggio Calabria on the pec.interno.it domain. Per the Financial Times, roughly 680 customers had identity documents, addresses, banking information, verification selfies and cryptocurrency transaction histories exposed. Researcher Korra of Duel described a 'spray and pray' operation using hundreds of crypto transaction IDs and fraudulent European Investigation Orders. Threat actor IAmNotAVillain claims six months of access and 147 GB exfiltrated from Italian law-enforcement systems, though this remains unverified.

FBI Probes Service Selling 153M+ Drivers Licenses
Dark web service Nexus sells scans of 153M+ US and Canadian drivers licenses, apparently siphoned from a breached identity verification company; FBI opened an inquiry.
A new dark web identity theft service called Nexus, advertised on the Exploit forum, offers scans of more than 153 million drivers licenses from the US and Canada, plus over 10 million ID cards and millions of travel and medical documents. The data appears to come from an ongoing breach at a major Louisiana-based identity verification company, with records growing by roughly 400,000 in 24 hours. Records include high-ranking US officials such as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and timestamps suggest data was captured during car rentals and travel. The FBI's New Orleans field office has launched an official inquiry into the source of the images.

McDonald’s Employee Data Appears in Leak, Seller Claims 1.7M Records Stolen
A seller offers 1.7 million McDonald's employee records allegedly taken from its Azure tenant via compromised credentials; an 8,000-row sample verifies as genuine.
A forum seller named TheHatman posted an 8,000-row sample of McDonald's employee directory data, claiming a 1.7 million-record haul pulled directly from the company's Azure tenant using compromised credentials. Ransomnews analysis found authentic Entra ID export artifacts, including genuine domains, tenant-internal addresses, encoding errors, and truncated HR fields, but could not verify the data's age or the 1.7 million figure. The same seller listed nine datasets in 16 days covering about 3.6 million records across McDonald's, Vodafone, Gap, hotels, and IT outsourcers, suggesting infostealer-driven credential resale. No passwords or hashes appear in the sample, so the primary risk is social engineering.

Three intrusions at UK criminal records office went undetected for two years
UK ICO reprimands ACRO criminal records office after three undetected intrusions over two years exposed thousands of records, including domestic violence victims.
The UK Information Commissioner's Office reprimanded ACRO Criminal Records Office after three intrusions between July 2021 and June 2023 exploited a Kentico customer portal unpatched since September 2019 and ignored Trend Micro antivirus alerts, including four quarantined Mimikatz detections. An attacker maintained persistent access for roughly seven months and staged data of nearly 11,000 people for exfiltration, though ACRO could not confirm exfiltration due to insufficient logging. ACRO notified more than 84,000 people on a precautionary basis; the Medusa ransomware group claimed the incident, and network segmentation kept attackers out of the Police National Computer.
