Comtec 2000 Listed by The Gentlemen Ransomware Group

On March 4, 2026, Romanian electrical products supplier Comtec 2000 appeared on the leak site of the ransomware group known as The Gentlemen. The company confirmed that internal files had been exfiltrated during a ransomware attack, although the exact number of people whose personal information may have been exposed remains unknown.

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 the incident began with unauthorized access to Comtec 2000’s systems, followed by data theft and subsequent encryption. The Gentlemen published a sample of the stolen material on their dark-web leak site, accessible via the onion address hosted on ransomware.live. Available details describe the exposed information as internal files rather than a structured database of customer records, yet such documents frequently contain names, addresses, contact details, employee information, and supplier records.

Comtec 2000 Inc., which operates from Romania and supplies industrial electrical equipment, lighting solutions, and photovoltaic systems across Europe, has not released a full list of compromised data types. The lack of transparency leaves many individuals uncertain whether their information was included in the stolen archive.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a company that handles orders, warranties, invoices, or service requests suffers a breach, your personal details can end up in the hands of criminals. Even if you never bought directly from Comtec 2000, vendor lists, partner spreadsheets, or employee directories often contain information belonging to ordinary customers and their families. Once that data leaves the company’s control, it can be sold, traded, or used to launch further attacks against you.

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.
