Investigating Discord's Fake Verify QR Code SCAM!
12,636Discord has been a haven of scams and frauds. In this video I'm going to show you how a widespread scam functions. I'll show how it steals discord accounts and mass DMs everyone on your friends list. I'm going to show you how this discord scam works when someone scans the QR code. I'm going to show you who is behind the scam and who programmed the bot. I'll also update you on what Discord is doing about this scam and how this scam could potentially be stopped.
Once again, do not scan any QR code using your Discord app unless you are trying to log in. If you don't listen to this warning, you will get your discord account token logged and you will become one of the many people that have been hacked.
Something something subscribe please so I can steal a play button from youtubes.
