LockBit lied: Stolen data is from a bank, not US Federal Reserve

LockBit falsely claimed a breach of the U.S. Federal Reserve and published alleged stolen data, but reporting indicates the actual victim was Evolve Bank & Trust; Evolve confirmed unauthorized data access, is investigating with law enforcement, has contained the incident, and will offer affected customers credit monitoring and remediation. The article also notes LockBit's recent disruption by law enforcement, suggesting the group's claim may be an attempt to regain relevance.
