Print Globe Listed by 8base Ransomware Group

On December 25, 2022, PrintGlobe appeared on the leak site operated by the 8base ransomware group. The company, which sells custom promotional products ranging from printed pens to branded tote bags, is claimed to have had internal files exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. The listing does not specify how many customers or employees were affected, nor does it detail the exact volume or types of records taken.

Primary Disclosure Details

The 8base leak site listing states that PrintGlobe suffered a ransomware attack in which internal files were exfiltrated. No customer record count is provided, and the disclosure does not quantify the data exposed beyond claiming that internal files were taken. The entry was first observed on December 25, 2022, and remains accessible via the group’s Tor-based portal. Public reporting on 8base indicates the group typically posts samples or entire datasets when victims do not pay the demanded ransom.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If you have ever ordered custom merchandise, corporate gifts, event giveaways, or personalized items from PrintGlobe, your name, shipping address, phone number, email address, and payment details may have been inside the stolen files. Even when companies claim limited exposure, ransomware operators frequently obtain customer databases, order histories, and contact spreadsheets. For families this means your home address and children’s names on birthday-party orders could surface in unexpected places. The breach also raises the risk that any passwords reused on the PrintGlobe site are now available to criminals.

Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks

Stolen order records often contain enough personal details to link your online handles, email addresses, and phone numbers to your real-world identity. Threat actors chain this information with other breaches to build detailed profiles used for identity theft, targeted phishing, or doxxing. Credential leaks from e-commerce sites like this one frequently cascade into account takeovers on gaming platforms, social media, and email services. Children’s gaming accounts tied to a family email or address become especially vulnerable once the connection is mapped.

8base Ransomware Group Track Record

Public reporting attributes the emergence of 8base to mid-2022. The group has since claimed responsibility for attacks on hundreds of organizations, focusing primarily on small and midsize businesses in manufacturing, distribution, and professional services. Their typical playbook involves initial access through compromised remote desktop credentials or unpatched VPNs, followed by exfiltration of sensitive files before deploying ransomware. 8base then demands payment and, if unmet, publishes victim data on their leak site with a countdown timer. The group is known for aggressive double-extortion tactics rather than widespread media attention.

What to do

• Run a DoxxScan to map every link between your handles, emails, phone numbers, and real identity, with cleanup handled by specialists.
• Rotate any password you used on PrintGlobe anywhere it is reused and enable 2FA through an authenticator app rather than SMS.
• Enable continuous DoxxScan monitoring across 13.1B+ breach records and 100+ platforms so the next exposure is caught in hours, not months.
• Cover the household with DoxxScan family coverage that extends to dependents and children’s gaming accounts that chain back to the same address.
• Let remediation specialists handle takedown requests for any exposed personal records across data brokers and leak sites.

The PrintGlobe breach is a reminder that even routine online purchases can expose your family to long-term identity risks.
