Tegut. Part 2. Listed by nefilim Ransomware Group: Ransomware Claim — What’s Alleged & What To Do
The Tegut. Part 2. Listed by nefilim Ransomware Group (reported September 9, 2021) is an unverified claim; the data involved is undisclosed belonging to roughly unknown people. If you have an account with them, your information may now be circulating on the open web and with data brokers. Here’s exactly what happened, how to check if you were affected, and what to do next.
Inside the incident
The only confirmed information is the listing itself. The group stated that it had exfiltrated internal files during a ransomware operation against Tegut. Part 2. No date of the intrusion, no volume of data, and no description of the attack method have been released by the organization or by investigators. It is therefore not possible to establish how many records were involved or whether any of the material has been published.
Inside nefilim
Nefilim is a ransomware operation that emerged in 2020 and followed the now-common pattern of encrypting systems and threatening to release stolen data unless a ransom is paid. The group maintained a leak site where it listed victims and, in some cases, published samples of material. Its activity was documented by multiple security researchers through 2021 before the operation appeared to wind down. Any specific claim made on the site about a listed organization remains an assertion by the group until independently verified.
About Tegut. Part 2.
Tegut. Part 2. operates in the retail sector. Organizations of this type routinely process customer purchase records, loyalty-program data, supplier contracts, and employee information. A successful intrusion that reaches internal files can therefore expose both personal details and business records that are not normally visible to the public.
The information in question
The listing refers only to “internal files.” No inventory of file types, no confirmation of personal data, and no statement on whether customer records, financial information, or employee data were included have been provided. Without an official disclosure from the organization, the precise categories of information that may have been taken remain unconfirmed.
The real-world impact
Individuals whose details appear in internal retail files can face risks of account takeover, targeted phishing, or identity fraud if the material is later published or sold. For the organization, the incident adds operational disruption from any ransomware deployment and potential regulatory scrutiny over the handling of personal data. Both outcomes depend on what the files actually contained, which has not been established.
What to do if you're exposed
Watch bank and loyalty accounts for unusual activity and enable multi-factor authentication where available. Request a copy of any personal data held by the organization under applicable data-protection rules. Readers can also run a free exposure scan of their email address against known breach data sets to check whether their information has appeared in previously published collections.

Publicly posted by nefilim — 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.
