Revolut systems and customer funds unaffected, says firm’s spokesperson
Revolut, a financial technology firm with over 80 million customers globally, reported on Saturday that sensitive information of a "limited number" of its customers was exposed in a scam involving an unauthorized third party. The scandal occurred when the scammer leveraged a legitimate government email domain. Revolut acted swiftly, blocking the suspect email address, notifying relevant authorities, including law enforcement and data-protection officials, and communicating with the affected individuals directly.
The company emphasized that their systems and customer funds remained unharmed throughout the incident.
