French Business School PPA Breached, Nearly 294,000 Records of Students, Alumni, and Prospects Leaked
A threat actor using the alias 84City has posted an SQL dump they attribute to PPA Business School, described as one of the largest private higher-education groups in France, offering preparatory programs and bachelor's degrees across art, design, digital, communication, and business. Dated July 10, 2026, the dump is a single personnes table listed at 293,967 rows, said to merge prospects, applicants, enrolled students, and alumni into one list. Per the description and sample, each record includes name, email, phone, home address, date of birth, nationality, student ID, school, class, year, and enrollment status. The claim is unverified.

⚠Potential impact
Merging prospects, applicants, students, and alumni into one list ties nearly 294,000 people's names to their email addresses, phone numbers, home addresses, dates of birth, and nationality. That combination is a ready-made resource for identity theft, targeted phishing, and fraud, and the inclusion of home addresses and dates of birth adds physical-privacy and impersonation risk. Because the list spans everyone who ever interacted with the school, the exposure reaches well beyond current students. No sample records, identifiers, or contact details are reproduced here. The claim is unverified.
