792 Hotmail Logins Exposed in a Telegram Combo File Dump

Not every leak needs to be massive to cause real damage, and the "800 Hotmails Combo" file proves that point. Uploaded to a Telegram channel in July 2025, the file turned out to hold 792 confirmed email and password combinations once HEROIC's team verified it.

Why This Is Dangerous

A smaller file like this one is often more dangerous than people expect, wich might sound backwards, but think about it: attackers can go through 792 records by hand or with basic automation and get through them fast. There is no needle in a haystack here, just a short, focused list of working Hotmail logins ready to be tested.

What Was Exposed

• Hotmail Email Addresses
• Plaintext Passwords
• URLs tied to each account
• 792 total confirmed records

Why This Matters

Email accounts, especially long running Hotmail addresses, are often the key that unlocks everything else. Password reset links, two factor codes, old account recovery emails, it all runs through that inbox. If someone can definately get into your email, they can often chain their way into your banking, shopping, and social accounts one reset link at a time.

How Stealer Logs Work

Small combo files like this one usually get pulled from a larger stealer log and repackaged around a single email provider, in this case Hotmail. Whoever built this file likely filtered a bigger batch of infected machine data down to just the accounts that would acheive the widest reach, since Hotmail and Outlook addresses are still tied to millions of active accounts.

Check If You Are Affected

It only takes a minute to find out if your email is part of a leak like this one. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your address against a database of more than 400 billion breached records, so you can act before anyone else does.
