[Scam Alert] Discord Nitro Phishing Messages

Discord Nitro Phishing

We’ve reported on Discord bitcoin giveaway scams before, and now scammers have discovered a new tactic to exploit you on Discord — with Discord Nitro!

Discord Nitro is a paid service for a better Discord experience with lots of extra benefits. Scammers contact you on Discord, claiming that they’ve got an extra Discord Nitro account and that you can claim it via an attached link.

If you click on the link, it will lead you to a fake Discord login page. All login credentials you submit there will be in scammers’ hands! They can thus gain access to your Discord account and hack it. Don’t fall for it!
