“For now, I am uploading a part containing information on over 3 million customers. Total data more than 3.7 TB. I obtained lot of internal API credentials, LDAP, Azure credentials and so on.”
They claimed in a thread, where some stolen data was shared, that negotiations with Interbank’s management started two weeks ago. However, the extortion attempt failed because the bank chose not to pay.
Bleeping computer reported Interbank spokesperson was not immediately available to reached out for more details regarding the breach.
