Bentley Capital Ventures Listed by Radar Ransomware Group

If you are a client of Bentley Capital Ventures, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

https://www.linkedin.com/company/bentley-capital-ventures We started Bentley Capital Ventures in 2012 to facilitate small business owners across the country in the process of obtaining capital. We know a simple trip to the local bank doesnt always provide the results many are looking for and as business owners ourselves we know how challenging it can be to obtain capital when you dont fit within the guidelines of the traditional banking world. At Bentley Capital we use the relationships we have built over the last 25 years in both the consumer and commercial banking markets to provide our c

Already exposed?

You can’t unleak data. You can take away what it’s worth.

A leaked record is where it starts, not where it ends. What turns it into your front door is the look-up sites publishing your address beside your name — and those are what an AI reads when somebody asks about you. The free scan shows you both. We write to 580 companies.

What Public Reporting Shows

Public reporting indicates that radar listed Bentley Capital Ventures on its leak site on April 29, 2026. The data consists of internal files exfiltrated during a ransomware incident. Bentley Capital Ventures, founded in 2012, works with small business owners who struggle to obtain loans through traditional banks. The company’s LinkedIn page describes using long-standing relationships in consumer and commercial banking to help clients who fall outside standard lending guidelines.

At the time of publication, the precise volume and specific types of records posted remain unclear from available reporting. No confirmed list of exposed data fields—such as names, Social Security numbers, bank details, or tax documents—has been independently verified by third parties.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If you or someone in your family ever applied for a loan or line of credit through Bentley Capital Ventures, your personal and financial information may now sit in a ransomware group’s hands. Small business owners and everyday applicants are the primary group at risk. A single leak like this can give criminals enough detail to attempt identity theft, loan fraud, or targeted phishing.

Unverified claim — what this report is

This page documents a public listing on a ransomware/extortion group’s leak site, tracked via public threat-intelligence sources. A listing is the attacker’s claim. GalaxyWarden aggregates and reports such claims; we have not independently verified that a breach occurred, what data (if any) was taken, or the accuracy of anything the group asserts, and the named organisation has not necessarily confirmed the incident. Sections above describe what the listing shows and the group’s documented history — not verified findings about the named organisation. If you represent this organisation and believe anything here is inaccurate, tell us and we’ll review it promptly.

Editorial & sourcing policy

GalaxyWarden is a breach-monitoring service and news aggregator. We do not exfiltrate, host, purchase, or redistribute stolen data. Breach information is compiled from publicly accessible sources and threat-intelligence platforms, and is reported as claims attributed to their source. We promptly correct or remove material shown to be inaccurate — see our content & takedown policy or write to support@galaxywarden.com.
