On July 12, 2024, Belgian customs brokerage firm customssupport.be appeared on the LockBit 3.0 ransomware leak site, claiming that its internal files had been exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. The company, which provides import-export services, goods classification, and customs consultancy, now faces public exposure of whatever sensitive business and client data the attackers chose to publish. Anyone whose documents, declarations, or personal details passed through the firm could be affected.

Reported Details from the Listing
The LockBit 3.0 leak page states that internal files were exfiltrated from customssupport.be in a ransomware incident. The disclosure does not quantify how many records were taken, list specific data types beyond “internal files,” or reveal the exact date of initial compromise. It does, however, set an implicit deadline typical of the group: pay or watch the data get released in stages. The primary source, hosted on the LockBit infrastructure and mirrored on ransomware.live, remains the sole official record of the claim at the time of writing.
Why This Matters for You and Your Family
If you have imported or exported goods through Belgium in recent years, your name, address, tax identification, shipment details, or even passport copies may sit inside the stolen files. Customs documents routinely contain exactly the kind of personally identifiable information that fuels identity theft, tax fraud, and phishing campaigns. Even if you never dealt directly with customssupport.be, business partners or freight forwarders who used the firm could have forwarded your data downstream. The breach therefore touches households far beyond the company’s direct client list.
Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks
Customs records frequently link names, physical addresses, phone numbers, email accounts, and sometimes dates of birth. Once attackers publish even a fraction of that material, it becomes trivial to chain the information across social-media profiles, gaming accounts, and data-broker listings. A single exposed shipment record can reveal both your home address and the username you reuse on Steam or Discord. That linkage turns a corporate breach into a personal doxxing vector that can escalate to swatting, SIM swapping, or targeted social-engineering attacks against you or your children.
