CENTRE D'AUTO P.R.N. SALABERRY IN Listed by medusa Ransomware Group

CENTRE D'AUTO P.R.N. SALABERRY INC was listed on the Medusa ransomware leak site on November 17, 2023. The Canadian auto repair company, located at 1755 Rue Grenet in Montreal, Quebec, is claimed to have had internal files exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. Customers whose vehicles were serviced there, along with employees and business partners, may now face heightened risks from the exposed data.

Reported Details from the Listing

The Medusa leak site states that internal files were exfiltrated from CENTRE D'AUTO P.R.N. SALABERRY INC in a ransomware incident. The disclosure does not quantify the number of records affected, nor does it specify exact data types beyond the general description of internal files. The listing appeared on November 17, 2023, and follows the group's standard practice of publishing victim data when ransom demands are not met. The company provides professional repair and maintenance services for cars and light trucks in the Ville Saint-Laurent area of Montreal.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If you or any member of your family had a vehicle repaired at this location, your personal information may be among the stolen files. Auto repair shops routinely collect names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, vehicle identification numbers, license plate details, payment records, and sometimes driver's license copies. When such information leaves a small business's control, it creates long-term exposure. You could receive targeted phishing emails that reference your specific car model or service history, making the messages far more convincing and dangerous. Family members listed as additional contacts on repair orders are equally at risk.

The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Implications

Stolen internal files from an auto shop rarely stay isolated. Attackers and subsequent data traders combine this information with other breaches to build complete identity profiles. A phone number from your repair record can be linked to your social-media accounts, children's school forms, or online shopping profiles. These connections allow doxxing campaigns that expose home addresses, family relationships, and daily routines. Credential leaks that surface in the same datasets often cascade into account takeovers, including gaming accounts belonging to you or your children. Once an attacker controls a gaming profile tied to the same email and address, they can harvest additional personal details and expand the attack surface further.

Medusa Group's Publicly Known Track Record

Public reporting attributes Medusa's emergence to mid-2021. The group has since targeted organizations across North America and Europe, with a focus on mid-sized businesses in healthcare, manufacturing, and professional services. Notable prior victims include municipal governments and manufacturing firms whose data appeared on the same leak site. Medusa's typical playbook begins with initial access gained through compromised remote desktop credentials or phishing. After gaining a foothold they exfiltrate sensitive files before deploying ransomware. Their extortion style combines data publication on their dark-web leak site with direct pressure on victims, often setting short deadlines for payment. The exact ransom demand for CENTRE D'AUTO P.R.N. SALABERRY INC was not published in the listing.

What to do

• Run a DoxxScan to map every link between your handles, emails, phone numbers, and real identity, with cleanup handled by the service.
• Rotate any password you ever used when booking or paying for service at the shop, and enable 2FA through an authenticator app on every account where that password was reused.
• Enable continuous DoxxScan monitoring across 13.1B+ breach records and 100+ platforms so the next exposure tied to your information is caught in hours rather than months.
• Cover the household with DoxxScan family protection that extends to dependents and children's gaming accounts that often chain back to the same address and email.
• Let remediation specialists perform hands-on takedown requests across data brokers and leak repositories on your behalf.
