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 that the attackers gained access to the commercial real estate brokerage’s systems and removed sensitive internal documents. The listing on the WorldLeaks site states the data was stolen and is now being used as leverage. Available reporting describes the exposed material as internal files, though the precise volume and full list of data types have not been independently verified by third parties. No confirmed count of affected individuals has been released, leaving clients, tenants, business partners, and employees uncertain about whether their personal or financial records are among the stolen material.

March 20, 2026 marks the public disclosure date on the leak site. The company, which provides leasing, property management, investment sales, and debt financing services across the U.S. commercial real estate market, has not yet issued a detailed public statement on the breach according to available sources.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a company that handles property transactions, financing agreements, and long-term client wealth strategies suffers a breach, the fallout can reach ordinary people. If you or your family have ever leased commercial space, refinanced an investment property, or worked with a brokerage that partners with Matthews, your name, contact details, financial information, or property records could be exposed. Once that data leaves the company’s control, it can be sold, posted, or combined with other leaks to build detailed profiles.

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.
