Security experts: A hacker claims to have stolen a large amount of customer information from bankrupt Bitcoin ATM operator Coin Cloud
An unidentified hacker group claimed to have stolen 70,000 customer selfies and sensitive personal information of 300,000 customers from Bitcoin ATM operator Coin Cloud. Coin Cloud operated more than 4,000 ATMs in the United States and Brazil before filing for bankruptcy in February this year. According to an article published by cybersecurity expert vx-underground on X, the hacker group also claimed to have stolen the source code of Coin Cloud's backend system. The post showed edited images allegedly involving customer selfies and personal identity information accessed by the group, including customers' social security numbers, names, addresses, dates of birth, occupations, and phone numbers. Vx-underground said the hackers shared these claims on private channels, and the leaked database could soon be released online. (The Block) Previously, according to a document filed with the Nevada bankruptcy court on February 7, Coin Cloud had assets of $50 million to $100 million and liabilities of $100 million to $500 million. The company has 10,000 creditors, with Genesis Global Trading being the largest unsecured creditor with a loan balance of $100 million.
