A ransomware group calling itself Play claims to have carried out a cyberattack against Figgins Family Wine Estates, with the claim dated August 31, 2026. This claim comes from an entry on the group’s own leak-site listing, which is tracked and archived by ransomware.live, a security research platform that monitors ransomware groups’ public extortion sites. At this time, the claim has not been independently verified, and it should be treated strictly as an allegation made by a criminal group rather than an established fact.
