300 PCS Free Logs Leak: 3,854 Passwords Sitting Exposed
HEROIC analysts found a stealer log dump uploaded to a Telegram channel on 18 June 2024, labeled "300 PCS - 18 JUNE - FREE LOGS," a batch name signaling that the file was given away at no cost. The dump exposed 3,854 records tied largely to United States users, containing email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs of the accounts they belong to.
Why the 300 PCS Free Logs Dump Is Dangerous
The word "free" in the file name matters more than it might seem. Once a stealer log is given away for nothing, it circulates far wider than a paid dump ever would, since anyone on the channel can download and reuse it with no barrier at all. Combined with plaintext passwords sitting right next to the exact login URL for each account, this file hands out ready-to-use access with almost no effort required from whoever picks it up.
What Was Exposed in This Leak
- Email Addresses: the usernames tied to each set of stolen credentials
- Plaintext Passwords: captured in fully readable form, with no encryption standing in the way
- URLs: the specific login pages tied to each stolen credential pair
Why This Matters
Because this batch was distributed for free, it likely reached a wide, uncontrolled audience beyond the usual paying buyers on cybercrime forums. That widens the pool of people able to attempt credential stuffing against the 3,854 accounts represented here, testing the same email and password combinations against banking, email, and shopping sites. Anyone who reused a password tied to one of these records faces a real risk of account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud, often without any warning that their information is circulating.
How Stealer Logs Work
A stealer log is produced by infostealer malware that quietly infects a device, often through pirated software or a malicious download, then extracts saved passwords, autofill data, and browsing URLs directly from the victim's browser. The results are packaged into a single file and distributed through Telegram channels, sometimes sold, sometimes given away in batches like this 300-piece free drop to build a following or reputation for the uploader. Because the data comes straight from the browser, it is typically accurate at the moment of collection.
