La Poste hack raises concerns for cryptocurrency holders

Share

The names, first names and addresses of 22 million people were stolen from Maileva, the digital subsidiary of Docaposte and La Poste group. The data, covering approximately 39 million mail references, could be cross-referenced with tax records or databases breached in attacks on cryptocurrency companies to facilitate the targeting of crypto holders. IBANs and amounts invoiced to businesses may also have been exposed, but La Poste says the banking details of individuals were not affected. The incident, which occurred in September, was confirmed nearly two months later, and no cross-referencing involving the Maileva files nor any kidnapping linked to the breach has been established at this stage.
