FTX: User Data Has Been Leaked
FTX has alerted its customers that a cybersecurity incident has occurred with its restructuring agent, Kroll.
Kroll has directly informed those affected of the steps they need to take to protect themselves, while FTX accounts were not affected.
Furthermore, scammers have started attempting to contact customers, and FTX has warned clients of possible phishing emails.
It was reported by on-chain researcher, ZachXBT, that the attackers were able to access data including names, email addresses, and exchange balances from FTX customer through the mobile phone number of one of Kroll’s employees.
