The breaches at both Trezor and SafePal were different from that experienced by ColdCard as they involved an exposure of customer data instead of private keys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nonetheless, these successive breaches heighten phishing risks for consumers.

However, despite these efforts, confirmed loss amounts remain unknown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, rising support tickets and targeted impersonation reports among the 39,798 affected customers would provide clearer evidence that attackers are actively exploiting the leaked data.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Final Summary<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li data-section-id=\"sc3nfc\" data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"100\"><em>SafePal exposed 39,798 customers, increasing phishing risks despite secure wallet credentials.<\/em><\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1ufak99\" data-start=\"101\" data-end=\"202\" data-is-last-node=\"\"><em>Recent hardware-wallet incidents show customer data becoming a growing social-engineering risk.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SafePal\u2019s customer data breach adds to growing concerns over phishing and social-engineering risks facing hardware wallet users.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":120,"featured_media":625719,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[66,4,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-625669","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-news","category-social","category-trading-view"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>SafePal data breach exposes 39K users - Why phishing risks are rising - AMBCrypto<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SafePal\u2019s breach exposed 39,798 customers, raising phishing concerns as hardware-wallet security incidents increase across the sector.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-image-preview:large\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/safepal-data-breach-exposes-39k-users-why-phishing-risks-are-rising\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"SafePal data breach exposes 39K users - Why phishing risks are rising - AMBCrypto\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"SafePal\u2019s customer data breach adds to growing concerns over phishing and social-engineering risks facing hardware wallet users.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/safepal-data-breach-exposes-39k-users-why-phishing-risks-are-rising\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"AMBCrypto\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/cryptoamb\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2026-08-17T10:00:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/FI_METRIC_SAFEPAL_17-08-2026.webp\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"900\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/webp\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Muriuki Lazaro\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@https:\/\/x.com\/Barksdale_808\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@CryptoAmb\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Muriuki Lazaro\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"ReportageNewsArticle\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ambcrypto.com\\\/safepal-data-breach-exposes-39k-users-why-phishing-risks-are-rising\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ambcrypto.com\\\/safepal-data-breach-exposes-39k-users-why-phishing-risks-are-rising\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Muriuki Lazaro\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ambcrypto.com\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/da38b3db2d4aae0646fa288f166f030f\"},\"headline\":\"SafePal data breach exposes 39K users &#8211;
