How the 893x UHQ Fresh Hotmails Combolist Exposed 886 Stolen Logins

HEROIC analysts identified a combolist named "893x UHQ Fresh Hotmails" that a Telegram user uploaded, with a leak date recorded as May 13, 2026. The file contains 886 records pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords and associated URLs, and its name points to Hotmail accounts marketed as recently captured, primarily tied to United States users.

How the 893x UHQ Fresh Hotmails Combolist Came Together

Sellers on Telegram often label files "UHQ," short for ultra high quality, and "fresh" to signal that the credentials were recently captured and are more likely to still work. That marketing points to how this list was likely built: harvested from phishing pages or malware infections, then quickly checked and packaged before the passwords could be changed. Each of the 886 records pairs a working email address with its exact plaintext password and the URL where the login was captured.

What Was Exposed in This Combolist

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

Why This Matters

Because this list is marketed as "fresh," the 886 passwords inside it are more likely to still be active than in an older leak. A working Hotmail login can also expose password reset emails for other accounts, so if any of these people reused their password elsewhere, attackers can use credential stuffing to reach banking, shopping, or social media accounts too.

How a Combolist Like This Gets Distributed

Once compiled, files like this one are typically posted for sale or given away for free on Telegram channels dedicated to trading stolen credentials. Buyers or downloaders often test the logins right away using automated tools, since "fresh" credentials lose value the longer they sit unused. That urgency is exactly what makes fast action on your end important too.

Check If You Are Affected

If you use Hotmail, Outlook, or any other email service, it is worth checking whether your 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.
