Oh, for the record, I actually don't know what's going on. I don't know if malware is making batteries explode burning down places, or paid arsons, or truly insane coincidence.

All I know is that this is a weird story and it makes me go "Hmmmmm"

WHOAOAOAOAOAOA!!!!!

LET PERPLEXITY SCRAPE EVERY DROP OF DATA OFF YOUR MACHINE AND DISCORD WILL GIVE YOU ORBS!!!!

WHAT ARE UOU WAITING FOR???

Hahahahaha

Some shit head piece of shit was shit faced talking shit. He thought he was tough shit and the shit for going apeshit on some dipshit. It's all bullshit for shit heads to get involved in shit like that. I told bro to get his shit together because when shit happens none of these shit for brains are going to give a shit when shit hits the fan

Believe it or not this does make sense to a native English speaker

It literally says in the e-mail pictured they used ChatGPT to summarize the data. It says they used the stolen OpenAI key from Avnet

People messaging me like, "yo dat looks like chatgpt"

When you have enough computers you don't need a heater. It's like, 45f outside (7c) and my office is 75f (23c).

Chat, we are cooked

Discord is being extorted by the people who compromised their Zendesk instance

They've got 1.5TB of age verification related photos. 2,185,151 photos

tl;dr 2.1m Discord users drivers license and/or passport might be leaked. Unknown number of e-mails

BREAKING

The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation has released new photographs of a recent arrest of an international wanted Threat Actor

Yesterday I briefly spoke with the Threat Actor(s) responsible for compromising Discord's Zendesk.

They said they were able to compromise Discord Zendesk by compromising a "BPO Agent" (outsourced support).

They never specified how they compromised them.

Of course, as is tradition, it is also entirely possible they're lying and they compromised their helpdesk system in some other way. It's not uncommon for Threat Actors to lie to obfuscate how they achieved access.

Interesting times

Dawg, I'm trying to fucking work and I've got notifications about the Salesforce compromise, the RedHat compromise, the Discord compromise, this fucking Asuraisjfjsjfiw botnet fucking DDoS shit going on

Threat Actors, will you CHILL THE FUCK OUT. God damn

I can't sit down for 2 seconds without some crazy shit happening the past few days. One of y'all's mfers needs to hit the pause button or something wtf bro

I'm on mobile, but if I had an angry cat picture readily available I'd post it

Thank you, Riverbank, for sending me an angry cat picture. But it's too late. No one gets a cat picture

Bro, I've got people messaging me saying they're worried they're in the Discord leaks and if their photo and/or drivers license is leaked they're going to kill themselves because it'll out them for being gay, or it'll potentially expose them to stalkers again

Wtf

This Discord Zendesk compromise has gotten more silly.

Previously, the Threat Actors responsible for the Discord Zendesk compromise claimed they had gotten access by compromising a BPO (Business Process Outsource) employee.

They were not lying.

It turns out that in August the Threat Actors who compromised Discord began sending emails to Discord outsourced employees offering them money in exchange for access to Discords internals.

The people they emailed was a very small team located in Southeast Asia. This particular office only has a handful of employees assigned to working Discord helpdesk (including age verification). This team is assigned to primarily handle back log work. This team had a great deal of access and were believed to be "trusted".

One of the emails this small team received offered $500 compensation to prove they're a Discord BPO employee. They offered an additional "several thousand dollar" lump sum payment in exchange for giving them access.

The Discord BPO employees were told to ignore the emails. Unfortunately, it appears one of these BPO employees did not ignore the emails and accepted the bribe.

$500 in this Southeastern Asian country is an astronomical amount of money. The "several thousand dollar" lump sum payment would be enough for this person to live comfortably for several years in their country.
