Check Your Email: Mega.nz Account Credentials Leaked on Telegram

A Telegram file labeled 3000 Mega.nz Accounts surfaced in November 2020, tied to Mega.nz cloud storage logins. HEROIC analysts confirm the verified record in this file pairs an email address with a plaintext password and login URL, and report only what that confirmed data shows rather than the number in the filename itself.

Why Cloud Storage Logins Are Worth Protecting

A Mega.nz account can hold personal files, backups, and shared links, any of which an attacker could access with a working login. If the same password protects other accounts, the exposure reaches well beyond cloud storage.

What the Confirmed Record Contains

• Email address: the username tied to the Mega.nz login.
• Plaintext password: stored as readable text, usable immediately without cracking.
• URL: the Mega.nz login page the credential was tied to.

What This Means if the Login Is Yours

A reused password here exposes any other account using it to credential stuffing, where attackers test the same email and password combination automatically across other popular sites. Cloud storage credentials in particular can also expose personal files stored in the account.

Why This Is Logins for Mega.nz, Not a Company Hack

This is logins for Mega.nz gathered into a combolist rather than a confirmed breach of Mega.nz's own systems. Combolists like this one are compiled from various credential sources and organized around the service the login works against.

Is Your Mega.nz Login in This File?

Scan your email to check right now. If it turns up, change your Mega.nz password immediately, and change it anywhere else you have reused it, starting with email and financial accounts. Check work email addresses too, since the same reuse risk applies there.
