Japan’s Digital Agency Breach Exposes 240,000+ Users’ Personal Records to Hackers
Attackers exploited a patched VPN appliance flaw to breach Japan's Digital Agency shared government platform, exposing about 246,000 personal records.
Japan's Digital Agency disclosed on September 11 that attackers exploited a VPN appliance vulnerability to access the Government Solution Service (GSS), a shared IT platform across ministries, exposing roughly 246,000 personal records. The attacker was active since late May using a maintenance staffer's credentials, with suspicious activity detected June 25 and containment on July 9. Exposed data covers about 189,000 employees/public officials and 57,000 contractors; no My Number, bank, or pension data was included. The VPN flaw was medium severity with a patch already available, and the 78-day detection-to-disclosure gap has drawn scrutiny.

Revolut Data Breach Via Fake Government Requests – What We Know So Far
Revolut confirmed attackers extracted customer KYC records by sending fraudulent data requests from a spoofed or compromised government agency email domain.
Revolut confirmed a data breach in which an unauthorized party obtained sensitive customer records by submitting fraudulent information requests from an email account on a legitimate government agency domain with valid SPF/DKIM/DMARC authentication. Disclosed data could include full names, dates of birth, passport or driving-license copies, onboarding facial images, IBANs, account statements, withdrawal records, and complete transaction histories including Bitcoin activity. Crypto investigator ZachXBT assessed the operation targeted high-net-worth users, while a threat actor using the name 'IAmNotAVillain' claimed Italian law-enforcement departments were compromised over six months with 147 GB of material, claims that remain unverified. Revolut says only a limited number of customers were affected, blocked the email address, and notified regulators and affected customers, stating its systems and funds were not compromised.

Revolut handed customer data to fraudsters using government email account
Revolut handed sensitive KYC data of high-net-worth crypto customers to fraudsters submitting fake emergency data requests from a compromised government email domain.
Revolut confirmed it disclosed sensitive customer data—including passport and driver's license copies, verification selfies, bank statements, IBANs, and Bitcoin transaction histories—to attackers who submitted fraudulent emergency data requests from a legitimate government agency email account, apparently an Italian domain. Targets were high-net-worth individuals involved in crypto, including Marc Karpelès and entrepreneur Marc Zeller. A Telegram account claiming responsibility posted stolen data as proof and demanded an extortion payment; the account has since been suspended. Revolut says only a limited number of customers were affected and has alerted the relevant government agency, law enforcement, and regulators. The technique mirrors 2021-2022 Lapsus$-linked fraudulent emergency data request scams against Apple, Meta, and Discord.
