About 3.27 billion stolen account logins have been posted to the RaidForums English-language cybercrime community in a ‘COMB’ collection.
A “compilation of many breaches” – COMB for short – has been leaked on the cyber-underground, according to researchers. The so-called COMB contains a staggering 3.27 billion unique combinations of cleartext email addresses and passwords.
The trove is an aggregate database that brings together older stolen data from breaches past – including credentials from Netflix, LinkedIn, Exploit and others. COMB – which was given that name by the person who posted it online – was first made public on Feb. 2 by a user dubbed “Singularity0x01,” a researcher told Threatpost.
