- A German logistics management company has experienced a data violation
- Royal Mail may have been exposed as a result
- Ghna Hacking Group has previously targeted Samsung Electronics
A hacking group that goes by the name GHNA has put information up for sale on the notorious bride forum site and claims the Royal Mail Group.
The British postal company was reportedly broken through a German Supplier of Logistics Management – if the information for sale is legitimate.
This data includes 293 folders and 16,549 files and is said to include personal identifiable information (PII) such as names, physical addresses, phone numbers and package information, leaving anyone affected at risk of identity theft and fraud.

“We are aware of an incident that is alleged to have affected Spectos, a supplier of the Royal Mail,” a Royal Mail spokesman said.
“We work with the company to investigate the problem and determine what influence may be regarding their data. We can confirm that there has been no influence on Royal Mail operations and services that continue to act as normal.”
GHNA previously leaked over 270,000 customer service tickets tied to Samsung Electronics Germany in a violation that exposed transactional and sensitive personal data.
A spokesperson for SPECTOS GMBH confirmed to Techradar Pro It has been the goal of an ongoing cyberattack since March 29, 2025, where “unauthorized access to systems and personal customer data has occurred” and that the attack is ongoing, but systems are monitored and secured continuously.
“The origin of the attack is currently being analyzed with external cyber security experts. Terms of media reports to the opposite, there are no indications of an internal attack or the use of leaked access data.”
Analysis from Hudsonrock suggests that AI plays an increasingly important role in violations like this, with tools such as Chatgpt able to “quickly analyze” files and extract valuable data like PII.
