🇨🇷 THREAT ACTOR CLAIMS MASSIVE COSTA RICA DATA BREACH AFFECTING THE COUNTRY'S POPULATION
A threat actor claims to have compromised a credit reporting agency and obtained an extensive collection of Costa Rican citizen, financial, legal and property data.
According to the dark web listing, the datasets allegedly include:
* 21.8M address records
* 3.95M email records
* 3.31M photos
* 18.74M detailed court/legal records
* 8.1M additional judicial records
* 374.6M salary records
* 9.95M citizen records, claimed to cover Costa Rica's population plus foreigners
* 3.52M vehicle records
* 3.39M beneficial-owner records
* 13.45M telephone records
* 2M marriage records
The actor also claims to possess information relating to Costa Rica's current president and is using it as a sample of the dataset.
⚠️ Analyst Note:
If authentic, this would be an unusually broad national-scale exposure because the alleged datasets can potentially be correlated across identity, employment, financial, property, vehicle and legal records.
The actor's claim that a credit reporting agency was compromised, the completeness of the datasets, and the claimed population-wide coverage have not been independently verified.
