Plutonium Stealer Log Exposes 41,348 Plaintext Passwords

Zoom in on a single line inside the file called 474-108K_plutonium uploaded by a Telegram User and you will find one plaintext password, sitting right next to the email address and website it unlocks. Multiply that by 41,348 and you get the full scale of this stealer log, uploaded to Telegram in late February 2026.

Why This Is Dangerous

The word plaintext is doing a lot of work here. Wich means these are not scrambled passwords that need special tools to read, they are the literal words and characters someone typed into a login box. Anyone who opens this file can imediately start testing them against email providers, banks, and social accounts without any technical skill required.

What Was Exposed

• 41,348 total records
• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• URLs showing which sites the credentials belong to

Why This Matters

Stealer logs like this one tend to be more dangerous than a typical company breach because the data is fresh and verified. The malware that collected it was running live on someone's computer, meaning these passwords were working at the exact moment they got copied. That freshness is exactly what makes lists like this valuable to criminals running account takeover schemes.

How Stealer Logs Work

Malware built to steal credentials usually gets onto a device through a cracked game, a fake software crack, or a phishing link. Once it is running, it quietly reads saved logins straight out of the browser, along with cookies and other session data, then exports everything into a single log file. From there, the file is sold, shared, or dumped into a public Telegram channel like it was here.

Check If You Are Affected

The only way to know for sure if your email shows up in a leak like this is to check. HEROIC's free breach scanner searches over 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs, combolists, and old company breaches, so you can find out in seconds instead of waiting for something to go wrong.
