A threat actor is selling alleged Microsoft Azure/Entra employee dumps from multiple major companies, creating immediate risk of spearphishing and tenant-account abuse. The posts, attributed to TheHatman, claim 3.64 million records dated from July 31 to August 16, 2026 across firms such as McDonald's, Tata Consultancy Services, Vodafone, IHG, and Kyndryl. The advertised samples reportedly include employee names, email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, service accounts, and other tenant records. Several named companies said they found no evidence of compromise, but the exposed data structure could still support targeted fraud and identity-based attacks.
