The GAMING PART 2 Leak Could Unlock Your Email and Other Logins

HEROIC analysts identified a combolist labeled "GAMING PART 2" that was uploaded to a Telegram channel on 7 February 2023. The file contains 99,250 records made up of email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the login URLs those credentials belong to.

Why This Is Dangerous

Each of the 99,250 records in this file pairs a working email address with a plaintext password and the exact site it logs into. Because the credentials are in plaintext, there is no cracking involved, an attacker can simply try each pair immediately.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Login URLs for the associated accounts

Why This Matters

A leaked email and password pair rarely stays contained to a single account. Attackers routinely take combolists like this one and run the same credentials against email providers, banking sites, and social platforms through credential stuffing. If someone in this file reused their password, one exposed login could unlock their email, other online accounts, and anywhere else that password was used.

How Combolists Work

A combolist pairs usernames or email addresses with passwords, one credential set per line, typically assembled from older leaks and stealer logs rather than stolen from a single company at once. Files like this one, sized at nearly 100,000 records, are common on Telegram, where they are uploaded and shared for other users to test against real login pages.

Check If You Are Affected

To find out whether your email address or passwords appear in this combolist or any other leak, HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your information against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records in just a few seconds.
