FTX Creditor Data Leak Raises Phishing Alert

FTX creditor activist Sunil Kavuri has revealed a data leak involving names and email addresses of FTX creditors. The breach likely originated from FTX or its claims agent Kroll, following a SIM-swapping attack on a Kroll employee. This exposure has led to phishing emails targeting creditors, impersonating the exchange and urging caution. Creditors are advised to avoid clicking email links, verify sender authenticity, and use only official claims portals. Vigilance is crucial as FTX prepares to begin creditor payouts starting September 30, 2025.
