Cybercriminals Are Selling Corporate Executives’ Social Security Numbers for Just 25 Cents

Matched: health

Rapid7 has tracked 476 compromised SSN records tied to 395 corporate executives on dark web marketplaces since early 2026, with records selling for as little as 25 cents. C-suite executives account for 44.6% of affected profiles. Three platforms — Xilo, Bankomat, and PeopleFinder — represent 81.5% of leaks, sourcing data from large breaches, infostealers, and phishing. Unlike passwords or cards, SSNs cannot be changed, making them permanently exploitable for fraud and impersonation schemes.
