A ransomware group calling itself Global Secret Group claims to have obtained data from Coggins Insurance Agency, according to a listing posted on the group’s dark web leak site dated August 10, 2026. This claim comes from the group’s own leak-site posting, which has been tracked and archived by ransomware.live, a security research platform that monitors ransomware groups’ public claims. At this time, this is an unverified claim made by a criminal group, not a confirmed security incident, and Coggins Insurance Agency has not issued any public statement regarding it.

What should you do if you have an account with this company?
- Change your password for any account with Coggins Insurance Agency, and avoid reusing that password anywhere else.
- Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) wherever it is offered, particularly for email and financial accounts tied to your policy or agency relationship.
- Be alert to phishing attempts referencing insurance policies, claims, or account verification — these often follow reports of this kind, whether or not the underlying claim is ever confirmed.
- Watch your bank and credit card statements for unfamiliar activity, and consider a credit freeze if you notice anything suspicious.
- Since insurance-related accounts often involve sensitive personal and financial details, consider using a service like a service like Aura or LifeLock to monitor for signs of identity misuse.
- Keep records of any correspondence you receive that references this incident, in case they become relevant later.
