9.2 Million Israeli Records Sold as a New Breach Are 20 Years Old
A vendor on a well-known leak forum claims to have breached Israel’s Population and Immigration Authority and is selling the entire national registry, 9.2 million records covering essentially the whole country. Ransomnews reviewed the sample the seller published, and the data checks out as genuine. It’s just not from 2026, or anywhere close to it.
The listing promises national ID numbers, addresses, phone numbers, birth and death dates, immigration dates, and family links for every person in the file, packaged as a 7.5 GB database.
To make it look convincing, the seller attached records supposedly belonging to the Netanyahu and Herzog families, including one person who died back in 1976 still appearing as a standard entry.
