Search Your Email: The TOR_LOG MIX 299PCS Dump Exposed 7,295 Accounts

HEROIC analysts discovered the TOR_LOG MIX 299PCS stealer log circulating on Telegram in April 2024. The archive contained 7,295 records, each pairing an email address with a plaintext password and the URL of the site where the credentials were captured. Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, every credential in this file is immediately ready for attackers to use.

Why Plaintext Passwords in This Stealer Log Are Immediately Dangerous

Most credential leaks require attackers to crack hashed passwords before they can be used. Not this one. Every one of the 7,295 records in the TOR_LOG MIX 299PCS archive contains a working email and password pair in readable form. Attackers also have the original login URLs, which tells them exactly which services were compromised. That combination means account takeover attempts can begin the moment the file is downloaded.

What the TOR_LOG MIX 299PCS Leak Exposed

• Email Addresses
• Plaintext Passwords
• URLs (original login endpoints)

How Stolen Credentials Lead to Account Takeover at Scale

With 7,295 email and plaintext password pairs in hand, threat actors run automated credential stuffing attacks against banking sites, email providers, and social platforms. Because many people reuse the same password across multiple accounts, a single compromised login from this stealer log can cascade into access to unrelated services. The included URLs also allow attackers to prioritize high-value targets immediately.

How Stealer Log Breaches Work

A stealer log is produced by malware that silently records what a user types into their browser. When a victim visits a login page, the malware captures the email address, password, and page URL before the user even clicks submit. These captured records are bundled into log files and distributed through private Telegram channels, dark web forums, or sold to other cybercriminals. Unlike a breach at a single company, stealer logs harvest credentials from hundreds of different sites at once.
