Identity Theft Just Got Easier Thanks to the Logs_18 June Dump: 76,453 at Risk

HEROIC analysts uncovered a large stealer log package known as Logs_18 June, uploaded by a Telegram user on June 18, 2026. The file contains 76,453 records, mostly tied to United States accounts, pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords and the URLs each credential unlocks.

Why This Is Dangerous

At more than 76,000 records, this is one of the larger stealer logs HEROIC has tracked recently, and every password inside it is stored in plain, unencrypted text. That means attackers do not need any special skills or tools to use this data, they can simply copy and paste a username and password into a login page and see what happens.

What Was Exposed in the Logs_18 June Dump

• Email addresses tied to real user accounts
• Plaintext passwords with no encryption at all
• URLs revealing which specific sites each login opens
• Endpoint details from the infected devices themselves

Why This Matters

With 76,453 sets of credentials now circulating, the scale alone raises the odds that your information, or a family member's, is included. Attackers commonly run these lists through credential stuffing tools, testing each pair against banking, email, and shopping accounts. Once one login succeeds, it opens the door to account takeover, identity theft, and financial fraud that can take months to unwind.

How a Stealer Log Like This One Gets Made

Dumps of this size typically come from a widespread infostealer malware campaign, often spread through cracked software, fake downloads, or phishing links that trick thousands of people into infecting their own devices. The malware quitely collects every saved password from the browser and matches it with the site URL, compiling everything into one large log file that gets shared or sold in Telegram channels dedicated to trading stolen data.

Check If You Are Affected

A leak this large means real people are going to have their identities stolen if they do not act.
