In recent months, several public bodies have been affected: La Poste, France Travail and the ANTS, the portal that issues identity documents. This confidential information, which is sometimes highly sensitive, is sold on forums. It&#8217;s then often purchased by cybercriminals and used to fuel all kinds of scams, including fraudulent operations involving bogus bank managers or brokers. It is often impossible for the victims to discern what is actually fake, and they&#8217;re then left to deal with the consequences alone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Read more about this story in our article: https:\/\/f24.my\/Buxv.y<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd14 Subscribe to France 24 now: https:\/\/f24.my\/YTen<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd34 LIVE &#8211; Watch FRANCE 24 English 24\/7 here: https:\/\/f24.my\/YTliveEN<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udf0d Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https:\/\/www.france24.com\/en\/<\/p>\n<p>Like us on Facebook: https:\/\/f24.my\/FBen<br \/>\nFollow us on X: https:\/\/f24.my\/Xen<br \/>\nBluesky: https:\/\/f24.my\/BSen and Threads: https:\/\/f24.my\/THen<br \/>\nBrowse the news in pictures on Instagram: https:\/\/f24.my\/IGen<br \/>\nDiscover our TikTok videos: https:\/\/f24.my\/TKen<br \/>\nGet the latest top stories on Telegram: https:\/\/f24.my\/TGen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Online scams: How our personal data is being used against us \u2022 FRANCE 24 English In France, a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":25152,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[37,4771,4772,6720,50,22,23,27308,20,21,7083,31,24612],"class_list":{"0":"post-25151","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-france24","8":"tag-artificial-intelligence","9":"tag-cyber-crime","10":"tag-cyberattacks","11":"tag-digital","12":"tag-france","13":"tag-france-24","14":"tag-france-24-english","15":"tag-france-in-focus","16":"tag-france24","17":"tag-france24-english","18":"tag-fraud","19":"tag-news","20":"tag-privacy"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25151","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25151"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25151\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25152"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/videos\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
