Collision & Classics Listed by spacebears Ransomware Group

On June 2, 2025, Collision Classics, Inc., a Michigan-based auto collision repair business established in 1987, appeared on the leak site of the spacebears ransomware group. Public reporting indicates the attackers exfiltrated internal files, including documents described as financial records and other business data, following a ransomware incident at the company.

Reported Details of the Breach

Available reporting describes the incident as a ransomware attack in which spacebears gained access to Collision Classics’ internal systems, copied sensitive files, and later listed the company on their public leak site. The exact number of records exposed remains unknown, and the full scope of the data has not been independently verified by third parties. The leak site entry, hosted on an onion domain and tracked by ransomware.live, states the presence of documents, other files, and financial information.

Collision Classics specializes in body repair, frame measurements, advanced calibrations, and work on both conventional and electric vehicles. Like many small and mid-sized businesses, it collects customer names, contact details, vehicle identification numbers, insurance information, and payment records. Any of these categories could be contained in the exfiltrated files.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a local business that has repaired your car or your teenager’s first vehicle suffers a breach, your personal information often travels with it. A single repair order can link your name, address, phone number, email, driver’s license details, and insurance policy data. Once that information leaves the company’s control, it can appear in data markets within days. You and your family then face increased risk of identity theft, fraudulent loan applications, and unwanted solicitations that feel personal because the attackers know where you live and what you drive.

Credential leaks from business systems frequently cascade into personal account takeovers. Employees reuse passwords between work tools and personal email or banking accounts. If those credentials surface, attackers can pivot from the business breach to your household accounts, including gaming logins used by children.

The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risk

Ransomware operators rarely stop at posting company files. They map relationships between employee emails, customer records, phone numbers, and online handles. This identity-chain process lets them target specific individuals for further extortion or sell the enriched dataset to other threat actors. A customer whose car was repaired at Collision Classics could find their information bundled with family member details, social-media profiles, and children’s gaming usernames. The result is a ready-made doxxing package that can be used for harassment, SIM-swapping, or spear-phishing campaigns months or years later.

Spacebears Ransomware Group Track Record

Public reporting attributes the spacebears group with emerging in late 2024. The actors have listed dozens of small to mid-sized businesses, focusing on organizations that lack dedicated cybersecurity teams. Their typical playbook involves initial access through phishing or exploited remote desktop protocols, followed by exfiltration of internal documents, deployment of ransomware, and dual extortion: demanding payment to decrypt systems and threatening to publish stolen data if the ransom is not paid. Notable prior victims include other regional service companies whose customer and financial records were posted on the same leak site.

What to do

• Run a DoxxScan to map every link between your handles, emails, phone numbers, and real identity, then use the cleanup to remove what you can.

• Cover the household with DoxxScan family protection that extends to dependents and children’s gaming accounts, which often chain back to the same address or parent email.
• Let remediation specialists handle takedown requests across data brokers and leak sites on your behalf while you focus on securing your own devices and accounts.
