105 Hotmail Accounts From the Ninho Private Dump Surfaced Online

In July 2026, HEROIC analysts identified a combolist file circulating on Telegram, labeled "NINHO PRIVATE HOTMAIL" and uploaded by a Telegram user. The file contained 105 records pairing Hotmail email addresses with plaintext passwords and associated URLs.

Why the Ninho Private Hotmail Leak Is Dangerous

Even a small, targeted file like this one carries real risk. The passwords are stored in plaintext, so anyone who obtains the file can read them instantly, and because every record is tied to a Hotmail account, an attacker can immediately confirm which email addresses are still active and try logging in.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Associated URLs

Why This Matters

A compromised Hotmail account often serves as the recovery email for other accounts, so if your credentials are among the 105 exposed records, an attacker gaining access to your inbox could reset passwords on your banking, shopping, or social media accounts too. That chain reaction is how a small leak turns into identity theft or financial fraud.

How Targeted Combolists Like This Get Made

A combolist is a compiled file of email or username and password pairs, often gathered from earlier breaches, phishing pages, or malware infections rather than a single new hack. Files labeled "private" and focused on a single provider, like this Hotmail-only list, are typically curated in smaller batches and shared selectively on Telegram before wider distribution.

Check If Your Hotmail Account Was Exposed

If you want to know whether your email address appears in this combolist or any other leaked dataset, HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your information against a database of more than 400 billion leaked records. It takes seconds to check, and if you find a match, changing that password everywhere you have reused it is the fastest way to shut the door on attackers.
