statesideseattle.com Listed by INC Ransom Ransomware Group

If you are a customer of statesideseattle.com, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

Stateside Entertainment started when the Georgia Entertainment Industry Investment Act was signed into law August of 2008. This act boosts state tax credits for qualified production and post-production expenditures to 30%. Stateside takes those credits, monetizes them and delivers the tax benefits to the investor- the client. What does that mean to you? The production companies spend money in our Georgia market, Stateside buys their tax credits, and sells them to the public to reduce their tax liabilities. Its a win-win proposition that takes the guess work out of the equations for the studios
— from INC Ransom’s own leak-site posting. This is the group’s claim, quoted verbatim; it is not GalaxyWarden’s reporting and has not been independently verified.

On February 3, 2025, the ransomware group IncRansom added statesideseattle.com to its leak site and began publishing internal files allegedly stolen from Stateside Entertainment, a Georgia-based company that monetizes film and television tax credits.

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.

Reported Details of the Breach

Public reporting indicates that IncRansom claims to have exfiltrated internal documents during a ransomware attack on the company. The exact number of people whose information appears in the files remains unknown. Available reporting describes the exposed material as internal files rather than a structured database of customer records. The leak site posting carries the date February 3, 2025, and follows the group’s typical pattern of publishing samples to pressure victims.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a company that handles financial transactions and personal tax information is breached, the documents can contain names, addresses, Social Security numbers, bank details, or correspondence that identify real people. Internal files exfiltrated in ransomware attacks often include spreadsheets, contracts, emails, and scanned documents that ordinary customers, investors, or production partners never expected would leave the company’s servers. If your name, address, or tax-related information is inside those files, it can be sold or posted openly, giving identity thieves and stalkers a head start. Families who invested in Georgia’s entertainment tax-credit program or worked with affected productions may now face increased risk of fraud, phishing, or physical exposure long after the initial news cycle ends.

The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks

Stolen internal files frequently contain more than one piece of identifying information. An email address listed next to a home address, phone number, or child’s name creates a chain that links your online handles to your real-world identity. Once attackers or opportunistic criminals obtain that chain, they can pivot to gaming accounts, social-media profiles, and data-broker records. Credential leaks like this one regularly cascade into account takeovers because the same password used for a tax-credit portal is often reused on Steam, Roblox, or Discord. Children’s gaming accounts tied to a parent’s email become easy secondary targets, turning a corporate breach into household doxxing.

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.
