What We Know So Far About the 2gis-scraping-full Login Leak

Here's what HEROIC analysts know so far: a combolist uploaded in August 2026 under the name 2gis-scraping-full contains 665 email and password pairs, each one paired with the URL it was captured from. Every password in the file sits in plaintext, and while the count is smaller than some files HEROIC tracks, that doesn't make the exposure any less real for the people in it. The only way to know if you're one of them is to scan your email.

Why This Is Dangerous

A smaller file doesn't mean a smaller risk to the people inside it. Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, whoever has this file can log in immediately, no cracking involved, and the URLs pointing to where each password works make that even easier. Small combolists like this often move quietly and get overlooked, which can actually give attackers more time to act before anyone notices.

What Was Exposed

• Email Addresses
• Plaintext Password
• URLs

What tends to happen next is fairly predictable. The listed credentials get tried against the associated URL first, then against other common services where the same email and password combination might still work. If a password was reused anywhere else, that reuse is what turns one exposed login into several compromised accounts, sometimes including email or financial ones.

A combolist like this one comes together when email and password pairs from various sources get compiled into a single file and shared or sold for repeated, automated login attempts. It isn't proof that any one service had its systems broken into; the pairs can originate from unrelated leaks, old data, or malware infections entirely. What matters most for anyone affected is whether that password shows up anywhere else they log in.

What You Should Check Right Now

Scan your email to see whether your address turns up in this file or in related ones.

• If it does, change that password everywhere it's been reused, not just on the one site tied to this file.
• Turn on two-factor authentication for any account where it's available.

This matters for work email addresses just as much as personal ones.
