Inside the web.de uploaded by a Telegram User Leak: 11,865 Exposed

HEROIC analysts identified a combolist titled "web.de," uploaded to a Telegram channel on June 12, 2026. The file contained 11,865 records pairing web.de email addresses with plaintext passwords, along with the URLs of the accounts they unlock.

Inside This web.de Combolist

This particular file groups its 11,865 entries by email provider, focusing exclusively on web.de accounts. That kind of organization tells you the uploader built this list with a specific goal in mind: testing and using credentials against one login system rather than scattering effort across many different sites. Because the passwords are stored in plaintext, whoever has the file can use every entry immediately.

What Was Exposed

• Email addresses
• Plaintext passwords
• Account URLs

Why This Matters

If your web.de email and password appear in this file, and you have reused that password on another account, an attacker who reads your inbox can often reset passwords elsewhere too. Combolists organized by provider, like this one, are commonly used for credential stuffing, account takeover, and follow-up phishing campaigns aimed squarely at the affected email service.

How Combolists Work

A combolist pairs email addresses or usernames with matching passwords, typically pulled from older leaks, phishing pages, or malware infections. Building a list around a single provider, as this one does with web.de, lets attackers run the credentials directly against that provider's login page and automate the process at scale, without wasting time on accounts that belong elsewhere.

Check If You Are Affected

With 11,865 credential pairs now circulating, checking your exposure only takes a moment. HEROIC's free breach scanner searches more than 400 billion leaked records, including this combolist, so you can find out immediately if your email and password were exposed and secure your account before someone else logs in.
