Duvel and Boulevard Breweries Listed by Black Basta
On March 06, 2024, the ransomware group Black Basta added duvel.com | boulevard.com to its public leak site, claiming that the Belgian family-owned Duvel Moortgat Brewery and its American subsidiary Boulevard Brewing Company suffered a ransomware attack in which internal files were exfiltrated. The primary disclosure on the group’s onion site does not specify the number of records affected, the exact data types stolen, or any ransom demand. Anyone whose employment, customer, supplier, or distributor records appear in those files now faces long-term exposure.

What the Leak Site States
The Black Basta listing states that both companies were hit in a ransomware operation and that internal files were exfiltrated. No sample documents are shown in the initial posting, and the disclosure gives no count of affected individuals. The notice simply lists the two brewery domains together and marks the matter as active on the group’s extortion platform. Public mirrors of the leak site, such as ransomware.live, preserve the original entry dated March 06, 2024, with no further updates at the time of writing.
Why This Matters for You and Your Family
If you have ever bought Duvel, Maredsous, Vedett, or Boulevard beers, worked with either company, or had your information stored in their distributor, supplier, or marketing systems, your personal data may now sit on a criminal server. Brewery customer lists frequently contain names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and payment details. Employees and contractors may have payroll records, tax forms, or HR documents included. Once these files circulate beyond the initial extortion group, they become raw material for identity theft, phishing campaigns, and long-term fraud against you and your family.
Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks
Exfiltrated internal files rarely contain isolated records. A single spreadsheet can link an email address to a home address, a phone number, a child’s school, or a supplier contract. Attackers and subsequent buyers stitch these fragments together into identity chains that follow people across services. A leaked work email leads to personal accounts; a leaked phone number surfaces on people-search sites; a leaked address ties everything to family members. Credential leaks like this one cascade into account takeovers, especially for gaming accounts that often reuse corporate passwords or security questions derived from employment data.
