A significant data breach has allegedly struck Jean Bakhos Spare Parts, a prominent automotive parts dealer based in Beirut, Lebanon. The company, which specializes in parts for high-end vehicle brands such as Mercedes, BMW, Range Rover, Mini, Land Rover, and Smart, has become the latest victim of a cyberattack. The incident came to light after a threat actor posted an advertisement on a dark web forum, offering a comprehensive customer database for sale.
The cybercriminal claims the database contains 213,000 non-duplicate entries, exposing a vast amount of sensitive customer and vehicle information. According to the forum post, the compromised data is in a CSV format and includes highly specific details that could be exploited by malicious actors for various fraudulent activities, including targeted phishing, identity theft, and vehicle-related scams.
The leaked information allegedly includes the following details for each customer:
- Full Name
- Address
- Vehicle Make and Model
- Year of Production
- Model Generation
- Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
- Phone Number
