A hacker is selling personal and financial records for over 678,000 French taxpayers and businesses, including Bitcoin holders.
The data includes income, addresses, and family information. This isn't just a privacy breach; it gives criminals a blueprint for targeted scams, especially against taxpayers with high reported incomes.
The desk's read: This leak escalates the risk of "wrench attacks"—physical threats to steal crypto. Bad actors now know who has what, and where they live. Online security becomes secondary. This is a real-world threat for Bitcoin holders in France.
Would you keep funds on a mid-tier exchange right now?
