French authorities have launched a preliminary investigation into the data breach incident involving the crypto tax platform Waltio. The hacker group Shiny Hunters extorted Waltio after the breach, obtaining personal data of approximately 50,000 users, most of whom are based in France. French prosecutors and the national cybersecurity agency have warned that affected users may be tricked into transferring crypto assets through fake official security notifications, and could even face risks such as 'wrench attacks,' kidnapping, or extortion.
