Dark Web File Reveals 1,751 Leaked Passwords From users List

Every one of the 1,751 passwords in this file is stored in plaintext, meaning it can be read and used exactly as written. The file, labeled users and dated 16-May-2025, pairs each email address with one of those plaintext passwords, along with the URL of the account it unlocks. Because there's no hash to crack, these credentials are usable the instant someone opens the file. The only way to know for certain if your information is part of this file is to scan your email.

Why Storing Passwords in Plaintext Removes the Safety Net

A hashed password normally forces an attacker to spend time and resources cracking it before it's useful. Plaintext removes that barrier entirely, so every one of the 1,751 pairs here can be tried against other websites right away. If you've reused a password from this file anywhere else, that other account is exposed with no extra work required.

The Three Pieces of Data in the users File

• Email addresses: work as a login name and a target for phishing attempts.
• Plaintext passwords: usable immediately, with no cracking necessary.
• URLs: show exactly which account each credential pair unlocks.

What a Matched Password Can Cost You

A successful match from this file can mean a hijacked email inbox, unauthorized purchases, or an account taken over entirely and locked away from its rightful owner. Once an attacker gets into an inbox, they often use it to reset passwords on other services tied to that same address. At 1,751 records, that kind of fallout can reach a meaningful number of people at once.

How a File Like This Ends Up Circulating

Files like this are typically compiled by gathering email and password pairs from different sources and organizing them by the URL each pair is tied to. Once assembled, a combolist tends to be shared and copied across different channels, extending its reach well beyond its original release. That's part of why files like this one keep resurfacing long after they first appear.

Checking If You're One of the 1,751 in the users File

Use the scan your email tool to see if your address is one of the 1,751 listed here. If it is, change that password right away and anywhere else you've reused it, choosing a unique password for each account going forward. Run this check on your work email too, not only your personal one.
