About Ancestral Medicine

Ancestral Medicine is an educational organization founded by Daniel Foor, PhD. It offers online courses, vocational trainings in ancestral healing practices, and international in-person ritual immersions focused on animism, ancestral connection, ritual practice, and cultural healing. The organization is incorporated in North Carolina, with a P.O. Box in Oregon, and maintains an international team spanning six countries. Because Ancestral Medicine collects payment information from course participants, financial account and credit or debit card data were among the records exposed in this incident.

What Happened?

Ancestral Medicine was listed in a Vermont Attorney General breach report summary dated October 22nd, 2026. The filing identifies the organization as educational and reports that the breached data included financial account codes and credit and debit account information. No additional details about the incident type, the number of people affected, or the specific notification date were included in the filing. No public reporting connecting this incident to a ransomware group, threat actor, or class action litigation has been identified, and the Vermont Attorney General filing remains the sole public source for this breach as of the research date.

What Should You Do?

If your financial account or credit and debit card information was involved in this breach, act quickly to limit your exposure. Contact your bank or card issuer to report the potential compromise and request new account numbers or cards if necessary. Place a fraud alert or credit freeze with the three major credit bureaus — Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion — to make it harder for someone to open new accounts in your name. Review your credit reports for unfamiliar accounts or charges at AnnualCreditReport.com, and monitor your bank and card statements closely for unauthorized transactions. If you become a victim of identity theft, report it and get a personalized recovery plan at IdentityTheft.gov.
