The 34K_PayPal_KurdishPy Leak: Stolen Logins Could Drain Your PayPal

HEROIC analysts identified a combolist named "34K_PayPal_KurdishPy" that a Telegram user uploaded on August 6, 2026. Despite the "34K" label, the file actually contains 22,391 records pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords and associated URLs, and its name indicates these credentials are tied to PayPal accounts, primarily in the United States.

Why the 34K_PayPal_KurdishPy Leak Is Dangerous

Imagine someone else sitting down at a PayPal login page with your email address and your exact password already in hand. That is what this file gives an attacker for each of the 22,391 records inside it: a working email, its plain text password, and the URL where the login was captured. There is no cracking involved, just a direct sign in attempt on a real financial account.

What Was Exposed in This Combolist

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs linked to each account

Why This Matters

A compromised PayPal login can lead directly to unauthorized transfers, linked bank account access, or fraudulent purchases, often before the account owner even notices anything is wrong. If any of these 22,391 people reused their PayPal password on their email or other financial apps, attackers can attempt credential stuffing to reach those too, compounding the financial damage.

How a Combolist Like This Gets Built

A combolist pairs stolen usernames or emails with matching passwords, typically gathered from phishing pages, malware infections, or earlier breaches before being merged into one file. Payment platform logins like PayPal are especially valuable combolist targets because they can be converted directly into money. Files like this one are usually branded and distributed on Telegram by the person or group that compiled them, in this case tagged "KurdishPy."

If you have a PayPal account or any other online account, it is worth checking whether your email address appears in this leak or any other. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your information against a database of more than 400 billion breached records, giving you a clear answer in seconds.
