The leak of French tax data affects nearly 678,000 people, which may exacerbate the risk of violent attacks against cryptocurrency holders

The French Minister of Finance confirmed that hackers breached the French Public Finance Directorate system at the end of June and stole personal and corporate taxpayer data. According to the platform FrenchBreaches, which tracks cyberattacks in France, this incident affected approximately 678,437 people, equivalent to about 1% of the French population, but the exact number is still under investigation and has not been finally confirmed.The leaked data reportedly includes sensitive information such as names, birth dates, home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, tax identification information, and income data. Among them, nearly 27,000 individuals had tax incomes of at least 100,000 euros, 386 exceeded 1 million euros, and another 8 exceeded 10 million euros. Reports indicate that the database has been sold on the dark web market for thousands of euros. The attackers, calling themselves ZeroBytes, claimed they extracted the relevant records using an internal search tool, which was only discovered later when access was cut off.This incident has raised concerns in the cryptocurrency industry, as there has been a noticeable increase in "wrench attack" violent robbery incidents targeting cryptocurrency holders in France in recent years. If high-income individuals' addresses and contact information are leaked, it could provide criminals with a more precise target list.
