What We Know: 2,941 PSN Linked Logins Leaked by grandgive

Here is what HEROIC analysts can confirm about this file. A Telegram upload titled psn log free, distributed by an uploader using the label grandgive, surfaced in August 2020 holding 2,941 email and password pairs in plaintext, tied to PlayStation Network related login URLs.

What the Confirmed Data Tells Us

The filename promises free access, but what it actually delivers to whoever downloads it is a list of working credentials. Every password sits in readable plaintext next to its matching email and login URL, ready to use immediately.

What Was Verified in This File

• Email addresses: the usernames tied to each login record.
• Plaintext passwords: stored as readable text, no cracking needed before use.
• URLs: the login pages tied to each PlayStation Network related credential pair.

What We Don't Know, and What Still Matters

There is no confirmed link between this file and any breach of Sony's own systems. What we do know is that any reused password here exposes gaming, email, and other accounts to credential stuffing, and PlayStation-linked credentials can attract targeted phishing disguised as account alerts.

How a File Like This Gets Distributed

This is a combolist, compiled from PlayStation Network related credentials and packaged by the uploader labeled grandgive for free distribution, rather than extracted directly from Sony's live systems in a single intrusion.

Is Your PSN Login in the grandgive File?

Scan your email to check right away. If you find a match, change that password immediately, starting with your gaming and email accounts, and set a unique password for each going forward. Check work email addresses too, since the same credential reuse risk applies there.
