Unverified claim — March 2026: Dark Web Informer reported actor Spirigatito selling purported databases from Tanzania's BRELA business-registration systems—about 10.2 million records and ~8 million individuals, including TRA tax ID numbers. BRELA had not confirmed the listing in sources reviewed for this entry.
What was advertised
Six marketplace slices: business names, companies, shareholders, people/contacts, TRA TINs (~7.4M), and a small MPs set. Alleged breach date in the report: February 4, 2026.
Why it matters if real
Company registry + TIN data is fuel for invoice fraud, fake licensing scams, and targeted phishing against Tanzanian SMEs.
What to do
- Verify any “BRELA renewal” or TIN update request through official channels only.
- Canonical record: BRELA claim on BreachHistory.
