So, apparently, some genius in France decided to play fast and loose with 1.2 million bank accounts. Yeah, you read that right. Someone got into the FICOBA database, which sounds like a fancy French restaurant but is actually just a big ol’ pile of sensitive info.
The Ministry of Economy is like, “Oh no, someone impersonated a civil servant!” Well, duh. Who leaves their digital credentials lying around like a forgotten baguette? Next thing you know, they’re grabbing RIBs, IBANs, and probably someone’s grandmother’s secret ratatouille recipe.
“Immediate access restrictions were implemented to stop the attack.” Translation: They finally remembered to lock the door after the horse bolted. Classic.
And now, the affected users get to wait for their “personal notifications.” Great. Just what everyone wants-a letter saying, “Hey, your financial life is now a public spectacle. Bonne chance!”
Banks are telling clients to “exercise caution.” Yeah, because nobody saw that coming. Meanwhile, scammers are out there like, “Merci beaucoup, France!” Emails, SMS, you name it-they’re having a field day. Pro tip: If someone asks for your bank details via pigeon, it’s probably a scam.
“If you suspect fraudulent use of your personal data, keep all evidence.” Sure, because nothing says “fun weekend” like organizing screenshots of phishing emails. Thanks, France. You’ve really outdone yourselves this time.
