La Poste Mobile Data Breach (2022)
If you are a customer of La Poste Mobile, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.
In July 2022, the French telecommunications company La Poste Mobile was the target of an attack by the LockBit ransomware which resulted in company data being published publicly. The impacted data included 533k unique email addresses along with names, physical addresses, phone numbers, dates of births, genders and banking information. 10 days after the attack, the La Poste Mobile website remained offline.
Editor’s note: The claims described below originate from a ransomware group’s leak-site posting and have not been independently verified by GalaxyWarden. A listing of this kind is an assertion made by the group during an extortion attempt. It is not evidence that a breach occurred, and we report it as a claim rather than as a finding.

What to do now
Steps that match what this notice says was exposed
Every step below is free and you do it yourself, and none of it depends on La Poste Mobile.
- Tell your bank before you do anything else. Account and routing details are the fastest-moving of the fields in this notice. Call the number on the back of your card rather than any number in an email, and ask them to watch the account and reissue the card.
One more, whatever was exposed: a breach notice is a favourite disguise for a phishing email. If a message about this arrives, do not use its links — go to the company’s site yourself, or call the number on your statement.
For security and vendor-risk teams: a staff address in a leak does not mean you were breached — it usually means a third party was. We monitor a domain against 13.1B+ leaked records and tell you when one of your people appears. See what we would check →
