The APOSTLE PRIVATE 71 Leak Gave Attackers 1,573 Ready-to-Use Logins
In late November 2025, HEROIC analysts identified a combolist called APOSTLE PRIVATE 71 uploaded to Telegram by an unnamed user. The file contained 1,573 records pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords, along with URLs showing which sites the credentials belonged to. The data was verified as of November 21, 2025.
What This Leak Hands an Attacker
With 1,573 working email and password pairs, plus the exact site each one unlocks, this file gives an attacker everything needed to start logging into accounts immediately. There is no cracking, guessing, or extra research required. The URLs act as a roadmap, telling a criminal precisely where to try each credential first.
What Was Exposed in APOSTLE PRIVATE 71
- Email addresses
- Plaintext passwords
- URLs tied to each set of credentials
Why This Matters
A ready-to-use list like this is exactly what powers credential stuffing attacks, where automated tools rapidly test each pair against banking sites, email providers, and shopping accounts. Anyone whose credentials appear in APOSTLE PRIVATE 71 faces a genuine risk of account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud, particularly if the same password was reused anywhere else.
How a Combolist Like APOSTLE PRIVATE 71 Gets Built
Files like this one are typically compiled from older breaches, phishing campaigns, or stealer malware infections, then organized and labeled before being shared on Telegram. Pairing each credential with its source URL, as seen here, makes the list far more useful to a buyer, since it removes the guesswork of figuring out where a login actually works.
Check If You Are Affected
If your credentials are sitting in a list like this, the only real defense is knowing about it before someone else uses it. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, including this one, so you can find out in seconds and change any exposed passwords before they are used against you.
