Ono Academic College Listed by Malekteam Ransomware Group

On December 24, 2023, Ono Academic College appeared on the leak site operated by the malekteam ransomware group. The listing states that internal files were exfiltrated during a ransomware attack and claims 130,000 records containing personal information including first name, last name, email address, phone number, home number, and password.

Already exposed?

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.

Details from the Leak Site

The malekteam leak page for Ono Academic College states that data was taken after a ransomware deployment. The disclosure indicates that the stolen material consists of internal files and lists the specific fields noted above. The exact number of uniquely affected individuals remains unconfirmed by the college in any public filing, and the leak-site listing does not detail the volume or sensitivity of every document taken. No ransom demand figure or payment deadline is shown on the page.

Personal information such as names, emails, phone numbers, and passwords were explicitly called out, which immediately raises the risk that the data has been or will be distributed beyond the initial leak site.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If you or any member of your family attended, worked at, or interacted with Ono Academic College, your contact details and possibly account credentials may now sit in attacker-controlled archives. A single exposed password that you reuse elsewhere can hand over email, banking, or social-media accounts. Phone numbers and home addresses turn digital theft into real-world harassment or targeted scams. Children who share an address or family email with an affected record face the same downstream risks, especially when their own online profiles become easy to link back to the breach.

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.
