63,930 Passwords From the Logs_12 August Stealer Log Surfaced

On 12 August 2026, HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log file named "Logs_12 August" uploaded to a Telegram channel. The file contained 63,930 verified records made up of email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs each login was captured from.

Why the Logs_12 August Numbers Are Alarming

Nearly 64,000 working logins surfacing at once means an attacker has a large, ready-made list to test against other websites immediately. Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, there is no cracking step involved, the credentials work exactly as they were typed by the original victims.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses tied to real accounts
• Plaintext passwords matched to each address
• The login URLs where each credential pair was captured

Why This Matters

A batch this large is valuable for large-scale credential stuffing, where attackers automate login attempts across banking, email, and shopping sites using every pair in the file. Anyone among the 63,930 affected accounts who reused a password elsewhere faces real exposure to account takeover, financial fraud, and identity theft.

How Stealer Logs Like This One Work

Info-stealing malware infects a device through a malicious download, cracked software, or phishing link, then silently extracts saved passwords, autofill data, and cookies from the browser. The results are packaged into a dated log, like this August batch, and shared in Telegram channels within days of infection.

Check If You Are Affected

With tens of thousands of records involved, it's worth checking directly rather than hoping you're not one of them. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against more than 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs like this one, so you know exactly which password to change.
