On August 24, 2024, INGOT Brokers appeared on the leak site operated by the darkvault Ransomware Group. The Australian-headquartered multi-asset brokerage, regulated by the Financial Services Authority of Seychelles, may have had its internal files exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. The listing does not specify the number of affected individuals or the exact volume of data taken, but it states that sensitive corporate documents are now in the hands of the extortion actors.

Details in the Leak-Site Listing
The primary disclosure on the darkvault leak site states that INGOT Brokers suffered a ransomware incident resulting in the theft of internal files. No sample data has been published yet, and the posting does not quantify records or name specific document types beyond “internal files.” The notification leaves unclear whether customer trading records, identification documents, financial statements, or employee data were included. What is certain is that the company’s systems were compromised, data was removed, and the actors are now using public exposure as leverage.
August 24, 2024 marks the first public confirmation of the breach through the ransomware leak portal. The listing follows the group’s standard pattern of announcing successful exfiltration after initial encryption attempts.
Why This Matters for You and Your Family
If you or any member of your household has an account with INGOT Brokers, traded on their platforms, or shared personal documents with them, your information may now sit in an attacker-controlled archive. Brokerage customers routinely provide full names, dates of birth, residential addresses, passport or driver’s licence scans, tax identifiers, and banking details. Even partial exposure of these records can be stitched together with other leaks to build a complete profile. The disclosure indicates that the data was taken from a regulated financial services firm, which means the records are likely to be both detailed and valuable on underground markets.
