How PIECE PRIVATE 25 Leaked 1,131 Email and Password Pairs

In late June 2025, HEROIC analysts found a combolist called PIECE PRIVATE 25 uploaded to Telegram by an unnamed user. The file contained 1,131 records pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords, along with URLs showing which sites the credentials belonged to. The data was verified as of June 30, 2025.

How This Kind of Leak Actually Happens

PIECE PRIVATE 25 did not come from a single hacked company. Combolists like this one are usually stitched together from multiple sources, older breaches, phishing pages, or malware infections, and repackaged into one file. Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, no cracking is required. Anyone who obtains this file can start testing each email and password combination right away.

What Was Exposed in PIECE PRIVATE 25

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs tied to each set of credentials

Why This Matters

Once a combolist like this circulates, criminals feed the credentials into automated tools that try each pair against banking sites, email providers, and shopping accounts, a method known as credential stuffing. Anyone whose email and password appear in this file faces a real risk of account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud, especially if that password was reused anywhere else.

How Combolists Like PIECE PRIVATE 25 Get Assembled

Sellers and hobbyist hackers gather leaked credentials from wherever they can find them, then filter, deduplicate, and organize the results into a single file before sharing it on Telegram. The URLs bundled with each entry in PIECE PRIVATE 25 make it easy for a buyer to see exactly which site a given login unlocks, which is part of what makes these files valuable even at a modest size.

Check If You Are Affected

Even a leak of just over a thousand records is worth checking, since the credentials inside are just as usable as those in a much larger breach. 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 someone else uses them.
