Inside the incident
The listing appeared on 17 April 2026. The only confirmed detail is that internal files were removed during a ransomware operation. No figure has been released for the number of people affected, the volume of data, or the date the intrusion began. The organisation has not issued a public statement confirming or denying the event.
Inside safepay
Safepay is a ransomware group that follows a double-extortion model: it encrypts systems and removes copies of files before demanding payment. The group maintains a public leak site where it lists organisations it claims to have compromised. Such listings are presented by the group itself and are not independently verified at the time they appear.
About cheeky.com.ar
Cheeky is a children’s clothing retailer based in Martínez, Buenos Aires Province, and operates as CHEEK S.A. The company sells apparel and related goods to families across Argentina. Retailers of this type routinely process customer names, addresses, purchase histories, and payment details, as well as employee records and supplier information.
What data was at risk
The only description provided is “internal files exfiltrated in ransomware attack.” The exact categories of information contained in those files have not been disclosed. Organisations in the retail clothing sector commonly store customer account data, order records, and internal communications; whether any of these specific items were taken remains unconfirmed.
Why it matters
Internal files from a children’s retailer can include personal details of minors and their families. If those records contain contact information or purchase data, they could be used for targeted phishing or identity-related fraud. For the company, the incident adds operational disruption and potential regulatory scrutiny under Argentine data-protection rules.
What to do if you're exposed
Monitor bank and email accounts for unusual activity. Enable multi-factor authentication on any services linked to the same email address used with the retailer. A free exposure scan of your email address can show whether it has appeared in previously published breach data sets.

Publicly posted by safepay — unverified claim, pending independent verification
Breach listings — particularly those originating from ransomware or leak sites — are third-party claims that may be unverified, incomplete, or inaccurate. A listing does not by itself confirm that a breach occurred or that any specific data was exposed. Severity is an automated assessment, not a definitive rating. Verification status is shown where available.
Attributions to threat groups and methods reflect public reporting and, in some cases, unverified claims made by the groups themselves; they may be incomplete or later revised.
