  "summary": "Revolut, a London-based financial technology company with over 80 million customers, reported that some customer data were exposed in an email-based scam involving an unauthorized third party using a legitimate government email domain. The company stated that their systems and customer funds were unaffected, and they have contacted the limited number of impacted individuals directly to inform them and provide support. Revolut has alerted the relevant government agency, law enforcement, data-protection officials, and financial regulators about the scheme. The company is committed to reaching 100 million customers globally and has recently received conditional approval in the US to operate as a national bank, with plans to invest $500 million in the US over the next three to five years.",
