French FICOBA National Bank Account Registry Hack — February 2026
France's FICOBA national bank-account registry was breached in late February 2026, exposing tens of millions of French citizens' bank-account-holder records.
- Bank account numbers
- Account-holder identities
- Account-status metadata
France's FICOBA (Fichier des comptes bancaires) — the national registry of bank accounts maintained by the French tax authority — was breached in late February 2026. FICOBA holds account-number-to-account-holder records for essentially every French bank account, making the dataset extraordinarily sensitive.
Doxxing risk for French residents is acute. Bank-account-holder records correlate name + account number + bank, which combined with any leaked email or phone is enough to enable convincing impersonation calls and SIM-swap escalations. For French executives and creators, expect a near-term wave of targeted vishing operations.
