Bulgamor’s Reported 2023 Leak Still Exposes 2,113 Logins Today
HEROIC analysts reportedly found a file tied to Bulgamor, a business website, containing 2,113 records of email addresses paired with plaintext passwords dated to August 2023. Time has passed since then, but the only way to know if the exposure still reaches you today is to scan your email.
What Was Exposed
Key finding100% of records pair an email address with a password.
Why an Older Reported Leak Can Still Be Dangerous Today
A file like this does not expire on its own. If the password tied to your email has not been changed since 2023, it can still be tried against your other accounts today exactly as it could the day the file first surfaced.
What's Reportedly Still Sitting in the Bulgamor File
- Email addresses: gives an attacker a confirmed, still-active target years later.
- Plaintext passwords: readable without any extra work, and still usable if never changed.
Why Waiting Makes the Risk Worse, Not Better
The longer a plaintext password sits unchanged, the more places it may have quietly been reused since, from new shopping accounts to newer email addresses, each one a potential entry point built on the same old password.
Data exposed in this breach
Email addresses appear in 100% of the 2,113 records in this breach, alongside plain-text passwords (100%). 100% of records (2,113) pair an email address with a password.
An email address and password together are a working login. Attackers feed pairs like these into automated tools that try them on banking, shopping and email sites, so anyone who reused the password elsewhere is exposed there too.

Email providers and account types
5.6% of the email addresses in this breach are personal mailboxes and 94.4% are work addresses. The most common provider is hotmail.com, followed by gmail.com and yahoo.fr.
Work addresses matter because a password reused on a company account can give attackers a way into that organisation. The company domains below show which employers appear most often.

Password Analysis
Key finding0.1% of passwords in this breach are reused, and 13.1% are 8 characters or fewer.
Is Your Old Bulgamor Login Still a Problem Today?
Scan your email to see whether it appears in this reported file, even years after the fact. If it does, change your Bulgamor password now and change it anywhere else you may still be using it. Do this for personal and work email alike, since old passwords have a way of lingering in both.
Password strength
Of the 2,113 passwords analysed, 0.1% appear more than once, and the single most common password accounts for 0.1% of them. The average password is 13.1 characters long.
100% contain no special character, 0.5% are numbers only and 3.3% are lowercase letters only. Passwords built this way are the first ones cracking tools try, which is why length and a mix of character types matter.
Password habits
Password length
The most common length is 13-16 characters, covering 31.2% of passwords. 13.1% are 8 characters or fewer, while only 23.6% reach 17 characters or more.
Every extra character multiplies the number of guesses an attacker needs. Passwords of 8 characters or fewer can be cracked quickly once they leak, while long passphrases hold up far better.
Share of passwords by length
- 8 characters or fewer
- 9 characters or more
Most common passwords
The most common password appears 2 times, and the top 15 together account for 18 uses. Passwords are masked here: only their first characters are shown, next to each password's true length.
When many accounts share one password it usually points to a default password, a shared team password or a common pattern such as a name followed by numbers. Treat any password on this list as public.

How a Reported Leak Like This Keeps Circulating Years Later
A reported leak like this typically started as a copy of the website's own stored account records, taken from its systems rather than individual devices. Once a file like that is out, it tends to keep getting re-shared on forums and messaging channels long after it first appeared.
Employees of bulgamor.org in other breaches
4 records from bulgamor.org staff turn up in 4 other breaches. The most common sources are Misc Combolists, XSS.IS Combolist and 1.5M GAMING COMBO HQ_ uploaded by a Telegram User.
75% of these staff passwords are reused, so a password leaked in one of these breaches may still open a work account. Organisations in this position should reset passwords for the affected addresses and require multi-factor authentication.
