Security News > 2021 > June > Tulsa’s Police-Citation Data Leaked by Conti Gang

The city of Tulsa, OK is asking some of its residents to keep a close eye on their personal and financial accounts after the Conti ransomware group leaked some 18,000 city files, mostly police citations, on the dark web.

The websites for the city, the Tulsa City Council, the city's police force and Tulsa 311 also were affected in the attack.

BleepingComputer published a report Wednesday that includes what is purported to be a screenshot of the list of 18,938 files from the city of Tulsa leaked by Conti, which, in addition to police citations, also include internal Word documents.

Police citations contain some personal identifiable information - such as name, date of birth, address and driver's license number - but do not include Social Security numbers, according to a statement by the city advising people of the leak.

"Out of an abundance of caution, anyone who has filed a police report, received a police citation, made a payment with the City, or interacted with the City in any way where PII was shared, whether online, in-person or on paper, prior to May 2021, is being asked to take monitoring precautions," according to the statement.

"Even after the shutdown of the DarkSide gang, the arrests in the takedown of the Clop group, and even in light of the Ziggy ransomware gang providing all of their encryption keys for victims due to the fear of law enforcement actions, Conti continues their attacks without skipping a beat."
