Identity Theft Risk: 200 PCS Free Logs Leaked 2,424 Passwords Online

HEROIC's threat intelligence team identified the "200 PCS - 06 DECEMBER - FREE LOGS" stealer log on December 6, 2024, a file uploaded to a Telegram channel dedicated to trading stolen credentials. The dataset contains 2,424 records pulled directly from malware-infected devices, including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs of the websites those credentials unlock. Because the passwords were captured in plaintext, whoever holds this file can log into the affected accounts immediately, with no cracking or guessing required.

Why the 200 PCS Leak Is Dangerous

Unlike a breached company database, a stealer log comes straight off a victim's own computer. Malware quietly copied the usernames, passwords, and website addresses saved in the browser or typed during login, then sent that data to a criminal-controlled server. That means the 2,424 people in this file did not lose their information because a company was hacked, their own device was infected, and every password saved or entered while infected ended up in this file in plain, readable text. Anyone who downloads this log can try each email and password pair on other sites within minutes.

What Was Exposed in the 200 PCS Leak

• Email addresses tied to 2,424 individual accounts
• Plaintext passwords, stored and shared with no encryption or hashing
• URLs showing which websites and services each set of credentials unlocks

Why the 200 PCS Leak Matters for You

Because the URLs are bundled with the credentials, attackers do not have to guess which site a password belongs to, they already know. This makes the 200 PCS data especially useful for account takeover: an attacker can go straight to the listed site, enter the plaintext password, and gain immediate access. From there the risk multiplies through credential stuffing against banking, email, and social media logins, identity theft using the linked email address to reset other accounts, and financial fraud on any service tied to a payment method. Anyone who reused one of these exposed passwords elsewhere is exposed on every service where they reused it, not just the one named in the URL.

How a Stealer Log Like 200 PCS Gets Made

A stealer log is the output of infostealer malware, software built to run quietly on an infected device and copy anything valuable it can find: saved browser passwords, autofill data, and session cookies. Victims usually get infected through a cracked software download, a malicious email attachment, or a fake browser update. Once installed, the malware bundles everything it collects into a single file, often labeled by the uploader as "free logs" as seen here, and sends it back to the attacker. From there, logs like this one are traded, sold, or given away for free on Telegram channels and dark web forums, which is exactly where HEROIC's analysts found it.

Check If Your Email Is in the 200 PCS Leak

You don't need to know whether your exact email address appears in this log to take action. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against more than 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs like this one, so you can find out in seconds whether your credentials have been exposed. If you find a match, change the affected password immediately, along with any other account where you reused it, and turn on multi-factor authentication wherever it's offered.
