US Stealer Log Leak: 200k Combo GAMING 2 Exposes 152K Passwords

HEROIC analysts identified a stealer log dump known as 200k Combo GAMING 2, uploaded to Telegram in December 2022. The file contains 152,670 records pulled directly from infected devices, including email addresses, plaintext passwords, and the URLs of the websites those credentials unlock.

Why the 200k Combo GAMING 2 Leak Is Dangerous

Unlike a typical company data breach, this file did not come from a single hacked website. It came from malware quietly running on victims' own computers, capturing whatever usernames and passwords they typed in. That means each line in this dump is a working set of login credentials, tied to the exact site it unlocks. An attacker doesn't have to guess which account a password belongs to. The URL tells them exactly where to try it.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords (stored and shared with no encryption)
• URLs linking each credential pair to the site it logs into

Why This Matters

Because the passwords in this file are plaintext and matched to specific sites, they are immediately usable for credential stuffing: automated attempts to log into gaming accounts, email inboxes, and any other service tied to the same email and password combination. People who reuse passwords across multiple accounts are especially exposed, since one leaked login can unlock several others. From there, attackers can attempt account takeover, drain linked payment methods, or use the compromised email to reset passwords on other services entirely.

How a Stealer Log Breach Like This Works

A "stealer log" is the output of information-stealing malware that infects a device, often through a pirated download, fake software crack, or malicious attachment. Once installed, it silently harvests saved browser passwords, autofill data, and session details, then sends everything back to whoever controls the malware. Files like this one are frequently repackaged, combined with other stolen logs, and redistributed on Telegram channels and dark web forums, which is how a 2022 infection can still be circulating and causing harm years later.

Check If You Are Affected

If you used any of the same email and password combinations across gaming, email, or other online accounts around the time this data was collected, it's worth checking your exposure. HEROIC's free breach scanner searches a database of more than 400 billion leaked records, including stealer logs like this one, to show you whether your information has surfaced online so you can change passwords before someone else uses them.
