Chile Citizens

A significant data breach involving citizens of Chile surfaced online containing sensitive personal information. The incident is linked to a massive exposure of the Chilean electoral roll and civil registry data. The dataset includes detailed identification numbers known as RUN or RUT along with full names and demographic details. This exposure stems from misconfigured government databases or unauthorized scraping of public administration portals. The scale of the breach covers millions of individuals making it one of the largest demographic leaks for the region. Security researchers identified that the records were circulating on underground forums and darknet marketplaces for various purposes including identity theft and social engineering attacks.
