How a Telegram Stealer Log Leaked 4.5 Million User Logins

On January 8, 2026, a stealer log named "mansory 1" was uploaded to a Telegram channel, exposing 4,577,926 individual records pulled from malware-infected devices around the world. Each record included an email address, a plaintext password, and the web address where that login was used, all quietly collected by information-stealing malware before being bundled into one massive file and shared publicly.

Why This Is Dangerous

A leak of this size means millions of working email and password combinations are now circulating with no encryption protecting them. Unlike a hashed or salted password database, a plaintext stealer log hands attackers a ready-to-use list. There's no cracking involved, just copy, paste, and try.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Login URLs tied to each account

Why This Matters

At nearly 4.6 million records, this log gives attackers enormous scale to run credential stuffing campaigns, automatically testing stolen logins across banking, shopping, and social media sites. Any account that shares a password with one in this log is at risk of account takeover, and from there, identity theft and financial fraud become very real possibilities, especially for accounts tied to saved payment methods.

How This Stealer Log Happened

It starts with malware quietly landing on a device, often hidden inside a pirated program, a fake software crack, or a malicious download. Once installed, the malware scans the browser for every saved password, cookie, and autofill field, then exports it all as a single log file. What makes "mansory 1" notable is simply its scale: millions of individual infections, each contributing a handful of stolen logins, combined into one file and dropped onto Telegram for anyone to grab.

Check If You Are Affected

With 4,577,926 records in this leak, the odds that your email address is included are far from small. HEROIC's free breach scanner searches over 400 billion leaked records, including massive stealer logs like this one, so you can check your exposure in seconds and change any reused passwords before someone else uses them first.
