4.6K Asia: A Telegram Combolist With 4,524 Exposed Logins

In July 2026, HEROIC analysts identified a combolist titled "4.6K Asia" uploaded to a Telegram channel. The file contains 4,524 records, each pairing an email address with a plaintext password and a linked URL, with the naming suggesting a focus on accounts tied to the Asia region. Why This Is Dangerous Every credential in this file is stored in plaintext, so no cracking or technical skill is required to use it. Region-focused combolists like this one are often traded among attackers who specialize in targeting a particular geography, which can make follow-up scams, like phishing messages written in a local language, more convincing to victims. What Was Exposed in the 4.6K Asia File Email addresses Plaintext passwords URLs linked to each login Why This Matters With over 4,500 credentials in one file, attackers have enough volume to run large-scale credential stuffing campaigns, testing each email and password pair against popular websites automatically. Anyone whose password was reused across accounts risks having their email, shopping, or social media logins hijacked, often used afterward to send scams to their contacts or attempt further fraud. How Regionally-Labeled Combolists Like This Get Made Combolists sorted by region, like this one focused on Asia, are typically filtered down from larger, mixed-origin breach dumps or stealer log collections. Sorting by geography lets an attacker target victims with more relevant follow-up scams, such as phishing pages or fraud attempts tailored to a specific country's banks or services. Check If You Are Affected If you think your information could be part of a regional leak like this one, it's worth checking.
