Coffee Beanery Listed by Akira Ransomware Group

Coffee Beanery was listed on the Akira ransomware group's leak site on October 16, 2024. The coffee chain, which operates more than 75 U.S. locations and 20 international sites, may have had internal corporate documents exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. The listing states that customer contact addresses, employee contact details, financial information, and other internal documents are ready for publication if the company does not meet the group's demands. Anyone who has shopped at Coffee Beanery, worked there, or had their information stored in the company's systems may be affected.

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.

Reported Details from the Listing

The Akira leak site posting, archived via ransomware.live, states that internal files were taken in a ransomware incident. It explicitly lists customer contact addresses, inside financial information, employees contact details, and internal financial documents among the data the attackers claim to possess. The disclosure does not quantify how many records were taken or name specific systems that were compromised. It also does not state the exact ransom demand or the deadline given to Coffee Beanery. The listing simply warns that the group is prepared to upload the material publicly.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If your name, address, phone number, or email was provided to Coffee Beanery as a customer or employee, that information may now be in the hands of criminals. Addresses and contact details can be used to craft convincing phishing messages, enable identity theft, or facilitate physical scams targeting your home. Financial documents may contain details that help attackers piece together your spending patterns or link you to other accounts. Even though the exact number of affected people remains unknown, the breach touches both customers and staff across dozens of locations, meaning the exposure is likely widespread.

Ordinary families who frequent the chain for coffee or work in its stores now face heightened risk of follow-on fraud. Children whose information appears in family accounts or employee records are not immune; their details can be folded into larger identity profiles used for long-term targeting.

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.
