Ive been hacked please read.

So i got hacked majorly today. I currently have no access to my main discord account or my server Synn city.
Do not click any links of mine at all. To anyone wanting to join i have set up a hopefully temp server.
Or if i lose my current main account and server then i guess this will be my new server. Ive been on off crying most of the day as if i dont get my account back or my server thats years of effort and community built up down the drain. Im honestly gutted right now.
If anyone would like to join my second server then i link it here

https://discord.gg/9evD4fkt

its bare bones currently as ive done nothing to it but ill build it up i guess. or hopefully ill get my old server back. I would say stay in the old server if you havnt already been kicked (the hacker is booting people especially my fdriends and mods/admins)
id say stay there if you can but also join me here until i know whats happening with that old server. I would like to and hope i can get it back.
Im absolutely kinda heart broken over it.
This hacker as a piece of shit scum a hole and i honestly hope nothing but the worst for them.

Discord is really good about getting peoples accounts back, my friend had theirs taken and got it back within the day it was stolen. They should be able to get yours back nearly as quick

they have barely responded to me not on twitter or facebook nor in my tickets thru email. its been a rough day and im just kinda loosing a bit of hope. but it has only been a day.

There’s an easy fix for that.

Go to Discord's site. Scroll to the bottom and click where it says "Support".

At the top right, there will be a selection that says "Submit a request".

There will be an area that asks "What can we help you with?", and below it will have a place to give you a list of selections. Select "hacked account".

There will be a list of other options, like, giving them the name of your Discord user account. (Don't confuse it with the display name, give them the actual account name, so don't capitalize the letters when you enter it. The will also request the email address you had before you were hacked. Give them your email address, not the hacker's.

Answer the other parts to the best of your ability, and give them the best description possible.

Once you have, they'll do their best to investigate the situation and take the appropriate actions, which will most likely give you back full control of your account.

Hope all goes well for you.

The person that compromised your discord account contacted me. I know we haven't talked in over four years, but I knew it wasn't you as soon as the person typed "hey hey" on a DM they sent me.

It's also a good idea to back up all your docs and works and do a system wipe + reinstall windows and apps, because odds are that's how they got your info.

Aaand change passwords on logged in apps and other services. it's a pain but it denies the chance of you getting immediately stolen again as soon as you recover or have more accounts compromised..

This happened to me I want to say back in February. Thankfully, I was actively using Discord at the time, and got messaged by some friends almost immediately and was able to regain control of my account and force the hacker out by changing my password and then using the "log out of all devices" feature. I have since set up 2-factor authorization - any future login attempts need to be authorized through my phone.

Fingers crossed it doesn't trick anyone else. Otherwise it may take some time for Discord to get your account back from some previous cases I've heard of. Hopefully its faster than that though!

I saw the news going around. The "Hey try this game" thing is old, but I didn't expect a new spin on it. Usually it's "Hey I'm secretly making a game", the angle they played this time was definitely geared to manipulating people. Usually these fake games aren't just discord token stealers but often have mechanisms to go through browser credentials. I'd reset passwords for anything you care about that had passwords stored in the browser. If you had a password vault it will be fine.

Looks like they're taking advantage of the standing of your account and are compromising other people's accounts to spread the hack.

ugh yh ive been getting messages luckily people from my community are spreading the word. it just kills me seeing my account being used :L

Let me guess, the attack vector was:
" im putting together a little surprise for my friend's birthday. She graduated as a software developer two years ago and is currently job hunting. Lately she’s been really into indie game dev and made her first game — but she thinks it's a failure.
If you could play it for a minute, leave a kind comment, and maybe share a screenshot of your feedback, it would honestly mean a lot. I’m making a short video with positive messages to cheer her up.


That's the message I received from someone about an hour ago.

๐Ÿ˜กThe utter ARROGANCE of those hackers!๐Ÿ˜ก
Is it just greed that compels them or pure senseless stupidity?
๐Ÿ˜”To think that I lost my own old account to them just last year on this very day.๐Ÿ˜”

-_- So sorry that it happened to you as well. -_-
These people are as cunning as they are criminal-minded.
If I had to wager a guess, you fell for the same “false report from a friend” ruse as I did.
Impersonating a Discord administrator is one thing, but stealing the accounts of one’s “friends” and then using them to broadcast their lies to others in an attempt to rob their online bank accounts blind?
D-:< That’s the absolute lowest of low. D-:<

did you ever get it back with the help of discord? and sorry it happened to you. its killing me today has been absolutely horrible. i do not handle stress well.

-_- Oh, how much I wish to this day that I had a better understanding of how the whole process of account recovery worked back then. -_-
But at least I was able to convince the real admins of Discord to neutralize the threat that its hackers posed to my friends.

It's how they get'cha
They rely on the "Web of Trust".
Take down one account trusted by others and they won't be so suspicious when the attacker comes knocking.

I was fortunate, the account the attacker tried to reach me from is one that hadn't spoken to me for a while, and also had a way of speaking that I recognised.

Sadly "trust no-one" has become a very useful mantra these days :(
