Unverified claim: On 2 July 2026, sellers using handles ChimeraZ and misere listed a database they attributed to IAD Group—parent of France’s large iad agent network—for sale. Trackers cited roughly 3.83 million people in a 14.3 GB JSON set plus about 966 GB of PDF documents.
IAD had not confirmed a breach at indexing time. If real, the mix of CRM rows and contract PDFs would be ideal fuel for escrow and “agent impersonation” fraud.
Action items
- iad advisers and clients: verify any payment or mandate change out-of-band.
- Treat unexpected “document re-signature” emails as hostile.
