Italian prosecutors, alongside the country’s anti-mafia and counterterrorism authorities, are investigating an alleged data theft involving at least 680 Revolut customers. The group calling itself iamnotavillain reportedly demanded 6,000 Monero, worth about $3 million, after allegedly using a compromised Italian government email account to obtain customer records while posing as law enforcement officials. The attackers said blockchain analysis helped them identify customers with substantial crypto holdings. Revolut said it had not formally received a ransom demand or heard back from the group, and that neither internal systems nor client funds had been affected or breached. The 24-hour deadline announced on September 16 has passed, but it remains unknown whether Revolut paid or whether the data was sold. Monero, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency, conceals transaction amounts and the identities of senders and recipients. XMR was trading near $546, up more than 5.7% from its opening price, after briefly rising above $600 before falling back; its move to $608 produced a large rejection wick.
