Yay KYC and AML laws!

I wouldn't be surprised if other neobanks as well as regular banks have been affected too, potentially without noticing.

    So this is obviously terrible stuff, but for once I feel that the leaking party isn't the only one at fault here. Seems like a government agency (shocker) was breached first, and then thus breach was used to appear more legitimate in the next attack.

    Why there is no process for verification of the government address. They require photos of your face, id, and who knows what else as a customer, but from a government employee, with far more privileges a single email address is enough?
