Posh Spice's perfume people pop up in Maze ransomware gang extortion effort

The Maze ransomware gang has struck again – this time targeting an American M&A practice which counts former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham as one of its clients.


Posh Spice's corporate tentacle, which flogs perfume and suchlike to the great unwashed, is a client of Threadstone Advisors LLP, a New York corporate advisory firm specialising in mergers 'n' acquisitions.


The Maze ransomware gang, which has made a habit over the last few months of targeting ever-higher profile targets to extort money out of them, posted what appeared to be files extracted from Threadstone's servers on its dark web blog.


Among those were the name, phone number and office address of someone appearing to be the practice's managing director. Meanwhile, Threadstone's website prominently boasts of having Victoria Beckham as a client on its homepage.
