At this point it can be virtually the same, or worse though.
To expand on the identity theft part, all the leaked info are enough to open an online low tier bank account (one might need to forge random images to prove identify and residency, but that’s super basic photoshopping, as it only needs to be scan quality). In particular the passport informations makes it a ton easier.
From there we move from simple identity theft, to possessing a bank account under the name of the victim, which opens the door to so many money schemes (no service will double check when asked to change bank info to another account with the same owner)
