Ransomware attack compromised 377,000 people’s Social Security and driver’s license numbers from Texas gas station and convenience store chain

A September ransomware attack, reported to the Maine Attorney General on January 6, impacted Gulshan Management Services (operator of ~150 **Handi Plus**/**Handi Stop** locations in Texas), with initial access via phishing and data exfiltration that exposed SSNs and driver’s license details for roughly 377,082 people; while no payment card data was involved and customer impact is unclear (likely employees affected), the incident reportedly persisted undetected for days and has already prompted a federal class-action filing.
