A shadowy forum listing has surfaced, claiming to host a database of Discord.io users for sale. This information is circulating through a Telegram channel associated with the Russian outfit known as Information Leaks, which regularly uncovers security gaps and tracks data breaches while monitoring fraudulent activity on the DLBI darknet.
An anonymous seller is reportedly looking to monetise access to the Discord.io server—a third‑party interface linked to the well‑known Discord messaging platform. The seller asserts that the compromised dataset holds about 760,000 records, including email addresses, hashed passwords, and additional user data.
The vendor supplied a sample from the database that cybersecurity experts subsequently reviewed. The sample entries proved to be legitimate representations of real Discord users, implying that the entire database could be exploited for phishing campaigns, spam, or other malicious actions.
At this time, Discord has not issued an official statement on the matter. Users of Discord.io are urged to take prudent steps: change passwords and enable two‑factor authentication to bolster account security.
Separately, a group previously composed of teenage hackers was linked to a notable breach involving Nvidia, highlighting ongoing risks across tech ecosystems and the importance of swift defensive actions.
