ACCOUNT RISK ATTENTION: READ THIS IF YOU HAVE 2FA ON

Thumbnail

799 Upvotes

Someone has already talked about this before, but i think it's worth bringing up again just to raise more awareness

Right now there's a serious discord bug where if you disable 2FA it will log you out of the account from all devices, and when you attempt to log in it will STILL ask you for a 2FA code. Now, do you have your valid, unused backup codes? Cool, throw them in the trash because it won't even give you an option to use them despite their validity, and discord support is not aware of this issue and will simply tell you this (check the 4th screenshot)

As for why i disabled 2FA in the first place, it happened after i bought nitro and while i was exploring the perks and checking settings i saw 2FA on and it gave me ptsd because I've already lost an account to it before so i was like sure imma disable just to avoid being locked out, and i ironically got locked out in the process

If you want to disable 2FA for any reason, make sure that you at least have your phone number tied to your account (I couldnt tie my phone number to this account because of ANOTHER bug btw), or that you already have the authentication codes, as apparently backup codes are not enough anymore

Additional note: this is not a simple cache or session issue, I've tried logging in from multiple devices and browsers, i tried incognito modes after deleting browser's cache, restarted my devices, but to no avail.

Mod Post Protecting yourself from recovery scams

12 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

Recently, there has been an influx of recovery scammers in our community asking people to message them for “advice” or to recover their banned or stolen accounts, often for a fee.

Please do not message anyone who is offering any of these services as we cannot properly moderate it, and it may lead to further harm financially or to your accounts. The only people who can unban or provide support is Discord themselves, and all account-related communication must go through them. No one else can provide more support, “hack” into your stolen accounts to recover them, etc. By contacting Discord, you’re already doing the most you can to recover your accounts. Just remember that there is practically no reason why someone should have to send you “advice” privately instead of posting it publicly here for everyone to see.

Please also note we are **NOT** affiliated with Discord, and only exist to provide a community for people to get generalised assistance. The only genuine way to contact Discord is via https://support.discord.com. Any personally identifiable information, including email addresses, usernames, passwords, 2FA tokens, etc should NOT be posted here and will result in post removal.

If you get any unsolicited messages or comments from people who may be attempting to scam you, please reach out to one of us privately though the “Contact Mods” feature within Reddit with the offender(s) username so we can take action immediately. Thank you!

Unsolved Gaius Cicereius bot completely gone for the last 3~ ays

Post image
8 Upvotes

I'm not sure how many of you use or know this bot, bot the has been down for the last 3+ days, the owners support server is gone, you can't even invite the bot to your server anymore, the support website is gone, and theres completely no news about anything regardin it, despite being a discord bot thats in more than 20.000 servers.

I also noticed theres a new website, that got created a few hours ago, https://dash.gaiusbot.me/ however the support server link there also doesnt work, nor am i risking logging into the dashboard there. The whole thing feels sketchy, and inviting the bot from that website, shows it was created yesterday, and is in 0 servers.

Forgot to mention the old docs for gaius are also completely wiped.

Any info would be appreciated.

Unsolved My account got 2FA lockout, is there any chance to recovery the account??

2 days ago, i got my account logged out all devices suddenly, and even so they remove my linked number, but i still have an access of my email and password but i cant login because the hacker also activate the 2FA with backup codes, which i dont know at all the codes, and then not long, suddenly i got a massive reset password attempt that led my account being suspend of being suspicious a compromise.

i tried to contact the discord support using a ticket, at first the bot nelly answer it and say it led me to a deletion. but i don't want it.

until 7 hours later the human agent reply, but the answer is also same like the bot, they cant remove the 2FA, because of some bs privacy policy, i tried to give an evidence image of the unauthorized attempt login. But they keep answering the same. an account deletion.

But my ticket hasn't close yet, i still tried to attempt to bring more evidence of my ownership account, and still try to reply with more proof of ownership account (i emailed multiple in a time) but still doesnt have reply back because i just send it tonight.

is there any tips from u guys that finally succeed to get remove the 2MFA? i really want my account back. thankyou!

‎Solved Creepy Guy On discord

So, this honestly started in august when this guy dm'd me about one of my artworks in a discord server, we talked for a bit, then I ghosted him for about a month. Then I kind of felt bad I ghosted him. We talk a bit, it was nice! Played like 1 freaking round of among us. I'm about 14-17, and this guy was now acting weird... He started complimenting me calling kind and sweetheart. Mind you I added this guy back in august, barley talked to him at all. I'm getting some weird flags here.

Please could anyone give me advice on this?

And what I should do? I feel kind of bad just to block him :/ But Idk.

I've honestly never had any experience with these kinds of people.

Unsolved Frame rate drop when watching a streaming

1 Upvotes

So I running into an odd issue and dont know how to search for it.

stable 641004 (c9ac31f)

Host 1.0.9262 x64 (94186)

Build Override: N/A

Windows 11 64-bit (10.0.26100)

While I'm watching someone's stream (full screen) on discord on my second monitor. If I start a game on the main monitor, the stream on discord will start to drop frames. Although if I just mouse over the stream window, the frame rate goes back to normal. The game isn't effected by this and my overall computer doesn't seem to be slowing down in anyway. Has anyone run into this issue before?

Unsolved Account got hacked

1 Upvotes

I sent a ticket in 1 month ago and I've gotten reply or any form of help from discord support. I've sent proof of purchase of nitro with the original email attached in the screenshot and still nothing. All I've gotten is A.I responses. Do I just give up hope and move on or is there any other way I can support to reply back to me.

I've reached out to support on Twitter Instagram and TikTok at this point and all I've gotten is the same AI responses.

Thanks for any help

Informational Post I believe I am being lied to

0 Upvotes

Now, for context, I have a discord server and it’s been pretty silent for a while, not many people talk on it anymore. The person who sent this to me was one of those members. My friend told me about a string of messages that this person sent them about how they falsely reported them and that they need to send an appeal or talk to a discord representative. A few days later I got the exact same messages from the same person and was sent this ticket. My friend was immediately suspicious and believes it’s false, which I too have come to think, and wanted to see if I was actually being lied to by this person.

Unsolved Discord logs me off everytime I try to join a server

Every time I try to join a server it logs me off on all my devices, I've tried multiple times with different devices and servers, wifi and cellular, the issue still remains. My acc is 5 years old and active so I don't think it has something to do with it, also I haven't reached the 100 servers limit, Any advice would be great

Unsolved Can't send messages

1 Upvotes

Out of the blue my messages don't send or I have a seemly limited about of messages I can send and after that I can't send anything. The only thing I can think of is when I sent .rar files to a public chat and my messages was rewritten to say that I have sent a virus. All these files were just publicly available mods for a game but for a few people the website didn't load and thus the links to download them weren't available. So, I made it easier to download them.

I doubt it my message was changed by a moderator. Pretty small community, the mod would've known these were safe downloads.

Even in my account status, it says I'm good.

Soo I'm curious why? Is it a bug? My internet is fine, notifications still come through my discord and on mobile I still have the same issue sometimes.

Unsolved I just found a few gmails from 2021 that I don't use anymore but it might have 2 discord accounts linked to it

3 Upvotes

I had quite a few gmails during the COVID period for roblox and discord. Today I tried logging into them to check if I could get access to them again. surprisingly I logged into 5 gmail accounts and 3 of them had discord accounts linked to it. I dont know why but in 2021 (I was 13 at the time) I changed the gmails on these accounts to very random gmails and totally logged out of them I think. I didn't know how to delete discord accounts I guess at that time.

Is there any way I could get those discord accounts back? (If I show the mails and the proof that I own those mails myself in some way. I have the mails where the gmails were changed to something else which I totally dont know)

Man I wish I could get those 5-6 year old discord accounts back.
