Dark Web Telegram Log: IN106.51.212.247 Leaks 21 Indian Credentials

HEROIC analysts found a stealer log file circulating on a public Telegram channel on March 14, 2025, linked to an Indian server endpoint at IP address 106.51.212.247. The log exposed 21 records containing plaintext passwords, email addresses, and API host URLs. Data like this is a direct product of infostealer malware infections and moves quickly through dark web credential markets once it hits Telegram. The inclusion of API host data suggests some of the compromised devices had access to business systems or cloud services.

Why This Is Dangerous

Stealer logs from India-based endpoints like this one are a regular commodity on dark web forums, where buyers use them to launch account takeover attacks. Plaintext passwords need no processing and can be tried against email accounts, banking portals, and business software instantly. The API URLs in the log may provide attackers with direct pathways into corporate or cloud environments. Once posted to Telegram, this data is accessible to hundreads of criminal actors simultaneously, multiplying the risk rapidly.

What Was Exposed

• Email Addresses
• Plaintext Passwords
• URLs (including API host endpoints)

Why This Matters

Stolen credentials from stealer logs power some of the most common cyberattacks today. Credential stuffing uses your exact username and password to try breaking into your other accounts, and it works whenever you reuse a password. Account takeover can lead to identity theft, unauthorized purchases, drained bank accounts, and fraudulent loan applications. Even a small log like this one, with just 21 records, causes real harm to real people whose informaton ends up in criminal hands.

How Stealer Logs Work

Infostealer malware infects a device through a malicious download, fake update prompt, or phishing link. It quietly scans the device for saved browser passwords, stored credentials, and session cookies, then packages everything into a log file. That file gets sent to the attacker and usually winds up posted to Telegram channels or sold on dark web marketplaces. The whole process can happen in minutes, and the victim typically has no warning until accounts start showing suspicious activity.
