What happened
DailyDarkWeb reported that a threat actor posting for MortemTeam described the release as “Part II” of a campaign targeting Uruguay's government. The purported material contains business and individual entries with names, addresses and phone numbers.DailyDarkWebx.com · DailyDarkWeb · xOpen original sourceSee in source list
Why it matters
If the information is authentic and current, combining names with addresses and phone numbers could make phishing, impersonation and fraud attempts more convincing, even without complete national identification numbers or birth dates.DailyDarkWebx.com · DailyDarkWeb · xOpen original sourceSee in source list
What to do
People and organizations connected to Canelones should treat unexpected messages that use personal details with caution, verify requests through a separate official channel and avoid sharing credentials or payment information. These are precautions based on the reported exposure, not proof that any particular person appears in the files.DailyDarkWebx.com · DailyDarkWeb · xOpen original sourceSee in source list
Confirmed and still uncertain
The available report does not establish where the data came from, whether it is authentic, whether it was recently obtained or whether Canelones government systems were accessed. DailyDarkWeb also said it found no public statement from the Intendencia de Canelones.DailyDarkWebx.com · DailyDarkWeb · xOpen original sourceSee in source list
What people are saying
DailyDarkWeb explicitly characterized the episode as an unverified threat actor claim rather than confirmation of a breach. Its analyst note suggested the material may be directory-style contact data that was aggregated or scraped, citing inconsistent totals, reused target details and mostly empty identity fields.DailyDarkWebx.com · DailyDarkWeb · xOpen original sourceSee in source list
Evolution
The actor reportedly framed this publication as the second installment following earlier warnings against Uruguay's government. The same report says MortemTeam also promoted claims involving an Argentine municipality and had previously named Argentina's central bank and Peru's tax authority, with the latter reportedly denying an intrusion.DailyDarkWebx.com · DailyDarkWeb · xOpen original sourceSee in source list
