Hello everyone, it saddens me greatly but I have to inform you that my discord account has been hacked.
If my now compromised account talks to you, ignore. Whoever they are, they will try to get hold of your account as well.
I have opened a ticket to Discord support, in which they have answered that they will be investigating.
I have taken my measures to secure my other instant messengers and apps that I use. I have also reset my PC for peace of mind.
Finally, I have created another discord that hopefully will only be temporary. You can note me if you want to know it !
In the event that I regain control of my original account, or it gets deleted, I will make a sequel post to this to inform you.
Stay safe everyone, and don't click suspicious links.

Ah, it's one of those I see.
For anyone that comes across this and ran the "game" in question just before this, reset your password and uninstall Discord (google how to do an entirely clean uninstalling, not just running the uninstaller). Also run an antivirus scan before reinstalling Discord, just to make sure there's not any other malware and to make sure.
That should hopefully mitigate any damage done.

Clicking a link by itself should be safe, but it's advisable to not do so to prevent any accidents of running the malware.
If a link would be able to compromise, it'd be used in any other place than Discord as it'd be a major security breach that's fixed within a day or two.

Sorry to hear that and hope it'll get resolved soon. Discord support doesn't have the fastest response time sadly, as far as I know.
Btw, always good to share what exactly happened that resulted in the hack (if there was any action done on your part). Knowledge is power in these things as it may prevent cases further down the line in the future (rather than just avoiding the current reported accounts).

les administrateurs peuvent difficilement aidé..
il faut a tout pris évité de cliquez sur des liens suspect ( y compris venant d'ami si c'est quelques choses qui ne parait pas normal venant d'eux )
avec la double vérification j'ai perdu mon compte, pas de risque de le voir volé mais... forcé de recréée un compte... ils ne peuvent ( ou ne veule ) rien faire...
