Researchers Link MagixGaming1 Dump to 198,900 Stolen Credentials

HEROIC analysts traced a combolist named "MagixGaming1" back to a Telegram upload dated January 2023. The file contains 198,900 records pairing email addresses with plaintext passwords and associated URLs, a large enough batch to be attractive to criminals running automated attacks at scale.

Why the MagixGaming1 Leak Is Dangerous

With nearly 200,000 email and password pairs in a single file, this combolist gives attackers enough volume to run large-scale credential stuffing campaigns. Rather than targeting one person, criminals use lists this size to test every credential against dozens of popular websites at once, hoping password reuse does the rest of the work for them.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Associated URLs

Why This Matters

A leak of this size increases the odds that any given person's credentials are included, and once a password from this list is confirmed to work, attackers often escalate to account takeover, identity theft, or financial fraud. The scale of the MagixGaming1 dump makes it valuable precisely because it is large enough to guarantee hits.

How This Combolist Was Assembled

Large combolists like this one are typically built by merging multiple smaller breaches and leaked databases into a single file, then filtering out duplicates and dead credentials. The name "MagixGaming1" suggests the data may trace back to a gaming-related source, though combolists are frequently relabeled and repackaged as they pass between Telegram sellers.

Check If You Are Affected

With 198,900 records in circulation, it is worth checking whether your information is among them. HEROIC's free breach scanner checks your email against more than 400 billion leaked records, including combolists like this one, so you can find out quickly and change any passwords that may be at risk.
