The 1.1KK Gaming UserPass Valorant Gave Hackers Account Access

HEROIC analysts identified this stealer log on April 2, 2023. The breach exposed 620,419 records, with stolen data including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and URLs. The source is identified as 1.1KK Gaming UserPass Target Valorant.

Why This Is Dangerous

This breach specifically targets gaming accounts, including Valorant players. Plaintext passwords were captured directly from victims' devices, meaning attackers have immediate access to working login credentials. Gaming accounts are valuable targets because they often contain in-game purchases, rare items, linked payment methods, and personal profile information.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs (website addresses where credentials were stolen)

Why This Matters

Over 620,000 gaming account credentials were exposed in this breach. Attackers use these credentials to hijack gaming accounts, steal in-game items, and sell access to high-value profiles. If victims use the same password for email or banking, the damage extends far beyond gaming. Credential stuffing attacks use lists like this to systematically test logins across hundreds of websites.

How Stealer Logs Work

Stealer logs are produced by malware that infects a victim's computer, often through phishing emails, fake software downloads, or malicious game mods. Once active, the malware captures stored browser passwords and records login credentials as users type them. The collected data is transmitted to criminals who compile and share it on dark web platforms and private Telegram channels.
