The 59K Hits Combolist: 54,240 Records That Could Unlock Your Accounts

The 59K Hits Combolist Exposed 54,240 Email and Password Pairs

HEROIC analysts found a combolist named "59K Hits USA EU RU ASIA 13.11" uploaded to Telegram on November 13, 2024. Despite the "59K" in its name, the file HEROIC verified contains 54,240 records pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords, along with the URLs those credentials were tied to. The name suggests the list draws from accounts spanning the US, Europe, Russia, and Asia.

Why This Is Dangerous

Every password in this file is stored in plain, readable text, so an attacker can use the credentials the moment they open the file, no cracking needed. Paired with matching URLs, this large batch of credentials gives criminals a ready-made list to test against dozens of websites at once.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Associated URLs

Why This Matters

With 54,240 records in a single file, an attacker running automated credential stuffing attacks can chain their way through a person's digital life. One reused password can unlock an email account, which can then be used to reset passwords on banking, shopping, and social media accounts, turning a single leaked credential into a full account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud.

How a Large Combolist Like This Gets Assembled

Large combolists like this one are typically stitched together from multiple smaller breaches, phishing campaigns, and malware infected devices, then combined into one file and shared or sold across Telegram channels and dark web forums. The bigger the file, the more valuable it is to criminals, who use bots to test every email and password pair against popular websites within minutes.

Check If You Are Affected

With more than 54,000 records in this leak alone, it's worth checking whether your email is among them. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your address against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, so you can find out in seconds and change any reused passwords before someone else does.
