Chapter 13 Texas Listed by incransom Ransomware Group

If you are a customer of Chapter 13 Texas, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

We have over 150GB of private data, ranging from employee data to customer and partner data. The management of planoch13.com has completely ignored us. You have 24 hours before we publish.

— from INC Ransom’s own leak-site posting. This is the group’s claim, quoted verbatim; it is not GalaxyWarden’s reporting and has not been independently verified.
Chapter 13 Texas Listed by incransom Ransomware Group

On August 29, 2025, the ransomware group IncRansom publicly listed Chapter 13 Trustee’s office for the Northern District of Texas, posting a 24-hour ultimatum after claiming to have exfiltrated more than 150GB of internal files from planoch13.com.

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 582 companies.

What's Publicly Reported from Reporting

Public reporting indicates the trustee’s office, which handles bankruptcy cases in the Plano area, failed to meet the group’s demands. The leak site entry states the data includes employee data, customer data, and partner data. No exact number of affected individuals has been disclosed. The notice gave the organization 24 hours before publication would begin. Available reporting describes the incident as a classic ransomware double-extortion attempt in which data is first encrypted, then exfiltrated for leverage.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If your bankruptcy records, financial filings, or personal information passed through the Chapter 13 Trustee’s office in Plano, your data may now sit on a criminal leak site. That means names, addresses, Social Security numbers, income details, debt schedules, and contact information could be exposed. For ordinary families already navigating financial stress, this claimed breach adds another layer of risk: identity theft, fraudulent loan applications, and unwanted collection calls. Even if you were not the primary filer, your information as a co-signer, creditor, or employee could be included.

Bankruptcy records are especially damaging because they tie your financial history, current address, employer, and family members together in one convenient package for criminals.

The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Implications

Once personal records leave a trusted government-adjacent office, they rarely stay isolated. Criminals combine the freshly leaked bankruptcy data with information from earlier breaches to build detailed profiles. A single exposed email or phone number can link your gaming accounts, social-media handles, and family members’ profiles. Credential leaks like this one frequently cascade into account takeovers on Steam, Roblox, Discord, and other platforms where children often share the same email address as a parent. The result is not only financial fraud but full doxxing chains that expose home addresses, children’s names, and daily routines.

IncRansom’s Publicly Known Track Record

Public reporting attributes IncRansom with emerging in late 2024. The group has targeted healthcare providers, local governments, and financial services organizations. Its typical playbook involves initial access through phishing or exploited remote desktop credentials, followed by exfiltration of sensitive files before encryption. The extortion style relies on short deadlines—often 24 to 72 hours—combined with direct threats to publish stolen data on its leak site if payment is not received. Victims who ignore the initial demand frequently see samples or full datasets released.

What to do

  • Run a DoxxScan to map every link between your emails, phone numbers, handles, and real identity so you can break the chains before criminals do.
  • Rotate any password you ever used at planoch13.com or related court filing portals anywhere it has been reused, and switch to 2FA through an authenticator app instead of SMS.
  • Enable continuous DoxxScan monitoring across 13.1B+ breach records and 100+ platforms so the next time your information appears it is caught in hours, not months.
  • Cover the household with DoxxScan family coverage that extends to dependents and children’s gaming accounts that often chain back to the same addresses and emails.
  • Let the remediation specialists handle takedown requests across data brokers and leak sites for you while you focus on securing your accounts.

The speed with which ransomware groups move means families cannot afford to wait for official notifications that may never arrive. Starting with clear steps today limits how far criminals can travel down the identity chain created by this claimed breach. DoxxScan by GalaxyWarden delivers continuous monitoring across 13.1 billion+ breach records and more than 100 platforms, AI-powered identity-chain mapping, hands-on remediation by specialists, and full household coverage that includes children’s gaming accounts.
