Discord Data Breach: Hackers Swipe User Info from Third-Party Provider – What You Need to Know!
Discord has confirmed that hackers swiped personal data from a third-party customer service provider. While your financial info and passwords remain safe, your contact details might’ve gone on an unexpected adventure. Discord is working on it, but keep an eye out for any suspicious messages sliding into your DMs.
Hot Take:
Looks like Discord’s customer support got a bit too chatty, and now some users’ personal info is out on the streets. It’s like when you accidentally send a spicy text to your boss instead of your best friend—except this time, the bad guys might be lurking in your DMs. Time to ignore those emails from “Prince Whatshisname” claiming you won the Nigerian lottery.

– Affected users interacted with Discord’s Customer Support or Trust & Safety teams.
– No financial data, Discord activity, messages, or passwords were compromised.
– Users are advised to be cautious of suspicious communications.
