The 25K Mix Dump Put Email Addresses for 24,954 Users on the Dark Web
On 25 March 2026, HEROIC analysts discovered a stealer log labeled 25K Mix circulating on Telegram. The file contains 24,954 records, each combining an email address, a plaintext password, and the URL of the site the login was captured from.
Why the 25K Mix Uploaded by a Telegram User Breach Is Dangerous
With plaintext passwords directly paired to real email addresses and the exact websites they belong to, an attacker can immediately begin testing those logins across dozens of other services. No cracking or guessing is required. The credentials are ready to use as-is.
What Was Exposed in the 25K Mix Uploaded by a Telegram User Leak
- Email addresses
- Plaintext passwords
- URLs of the sites tied to each login
Why This 25K Mix Uploaded by a Telegram User Data Puts You at Risk
Credential stuffing attacks use stolen email and password pairs to break into unrelated accounts across banking, email, and shopping platforms. When a match works, attackers can lock you out, drain accounts, make fraudulent purchases, or use your identity to open new lines of credit. Because these are plaintext passwords, no extra effort is needed to weaponize them.
How a Stealer Log Works
A stealer log is assembled by infostealer malware that silently runs on an infected device. The malware copies saved browser passwords, session cookies, and autofill data without the user noticing. Everything it collects is sent back to the attacker, who packages and shares the credentials under a label like 25K Mix.
