HEROIC analysts identified the VIP_ULP Free stealer log on Telegram in May 2026. The archive contained 212,226 records tied to accounts operated primarily within the United States, with each entry including an email address, a plaintext password, and the exact URL of the website where those credentials were captured. The log was distributed as a free release in criminal circles, meaning thousands of bad actors had immediate access to hundreds of thousands of working American account credentials the moment it was posted.


Why the VIP_ULP Free Leak Puts US Accounts at Immediate Risk

A plaintext credential paired with a specific website URL is the most immediately dangerous form of stolen data. There is no decryption step. There is no guesswork. An attacker downloads this file, runs it through a credential stuffing tool, and begins testing logins against real sites. The United States has a high concentration of online banking, e-commerce, and cloud service accounts, making US-focused stealer logs particularly valueable to criminals. The 212,226 accounts in this file represent real people whose email and passwords are now freely available to anyone who downloaded the Telegram post.


What the VIP_ULP Free Stealer Log Exposed

  • Email addresses (used as account identifiers across virtually every platform)
  • Plaintext passwords (unencrypted and immediately usable for account access)
  • URLs (the exact websites targeted by the malware that collected this data)

Why 212,226 US Accounts Being Leaked Matters for Credential Stuffing

Criminal actors prioritize US-based credentials because they typically unlock high-value targets: American bank accounts, PayPal accounts, Amazon Prime memberships, and corporate email logins. When a file this size is released for free, it gets downloaded and tested by hundreds of operators within hours. Credential stuffing at scale means each account in this file may be tested against dozens of different platforms automatically. Password reuse is common enough that a single credential pair can lead to account takeover on services the victim never even knew were being targeted. Financial fraud, identity theft, and unauthorized purchases follow quickly.


How VIP_ULP Free Stealer Logs Target and Expose US Credentials

The VIP_ULP naming convention signals the format and intended audience: URL, Login, Password, packaged for free distribution. The source data comes from infostealer malware deployed against US-based users through phishing campaigns, malicious software downloads, and fake browser extensions. The malware runs on the victim's computer, extracts every saved password from the browser, and transmits the data to a collection server. The collected logs are then sorted, formatted as ULP files, and released on Telegram to build the distributor's reputation in criminal underground markets. Victims in the United States are disproportionately targeted because of the high market value of their acounts.
