Discord Data Drama: Customer Info Leaked in Vendor Slip-up!
Discord data was stolen, but it wasn’t their fault! Blame the compromised support vendor. While Discord’s servers stayed safe, names, emails, and even credit card bits got exposed. Discord cut ties faster than a bad breakup and is now warning users to dodge scams. So, stay vigilant, folks!
Hot Take:
Looks like Discord’s vendor took a page out of the “How to be a Terrible Neighbor” handbook. While Discord’s house remained tidy, their support vendor’s house party spilled over into a data breach hangover. Hope they have a strong brew of security measures for the morning after!
Key Points:
- Discord confirms user data was compromised through a third-party support vendor.
- Exposed data includes personal info, payment details, and potentially government ID images.
- Discord’s own servers were not directly accessed.
- The breach was part of a financial extortion attempt against Discord.
- Discord is notifying affected users and collaborating with law enforcement.
