In short, a kid made a Discord account at age 12, lied about her age and said she was 18. The kid at age 13 clicked a scam link claiming to be Discord support and lost access to her account. Scammer asked for parents bank account details which is how the dad became aware. Dad tried to report the issue to Discord, but had to go through an AI support bot that kept closing the ticket. Dad spoke with someone named “Molly” that was possibly a human and explained that his daughter’s account had a lot of underage friends tied to the account that could be at risk. “Molly” said they’d have to open a ticket from within the app, which they no longer had access to because his daughter never set up 2FA.

Discord didn’t actually do anything about this until Ars stepped in. After regaining access to the account the daughter found 2 friends fell for the scam. Discord later banned the account for violating the TOS when lying about her age and stated they would only restore the account if they shared a photo of the kid along with a copy of her birth certificate or passport. The father gave in and complied so she didn’t lose access to her friends.

    In general, that practice is absolutely disrespectful towards customers and should be met with complete rejection

      Any company using AI support is absolutely fucked in the head imo. It’s absolute dogshit.

      I had a phone company where I had to call to add a new sim to my account because my previous phone was stolen and the fucking AI says “we have sent you a link via text or how to add a sim. Thank you, good bye.” And it fucking hung up on me.

      I didn’t have the phone to get the text because it had been stolen!

    How is this news? Kid got pwned; it’s a learning experience to lose your account because you clicked on an untrusted link. Discord sucks, and their support sucks, but I don’t think they did anything wrong here beyond that.

      You know what’s also a learning experience? Getting mugged. I hope you learn compassion before you learn that lesson.

        They aren’t wrong at all. It has always been this way. You lose access to your account you make another. They are making a case of this to push more ID anti anon bullshit.

    Ditch Discord. If your friends after all these years haven’t set up OOB contact, they’re not friends.

    I’d of told my kid they are SOL and to learn from their fuck up. Go make a new account kiddo, ask your friends for their discords when you go back to class.

      Amazing parenting to let them hurt themselves and their friends because you couldn’t educate them well enough to avoid a scam.

      Edit: I am not saying the parent should have educated the child better, I am just saying when you go down this path of “well you should have known better” then the responsibility is on the parents to teach the kids better.

        Well our parents were/are mostly tech illiterate, were they also bad parents because they couldn’t educate us on it? The new generation have 100x the ability to self educate than we did as well.

          That’s the point. We should not make our children feel bad for not knowing better when we ourselves aren’t doing any better. Show some fucking empathy instead of saying you’re shit out of luck.

        It’s not about education, it’s often something you need to learn the hard way. It’s way too easy to be distracted or busy and hit a bad link. Losing access to a discord account hardly counts as hurt, unless it’s linked to bank stuff.

        None of the other explanations have actually given you the real contraction that the above user is employing phonetically: “I’d’ve” -> “I would have”

          People do ACTUALLY say I’d of in lots of regions of the US. That’s how you actually say the phrase.

          Welcome to English. If you think you know the rules some random group of 1000s of people will prove you wrong because they havent given a single fuck about what’s proper for a hundred years or so.

          Basically every physical possiable way to say the phrase is in use somewhere.

      People make real friends online. Who they don’t know in person. You’d be telling your child to toughen up and get new friends.

        Ever had to move when you were a kid? Kids have to make new friends all the time. So do adults. Being forced to make new friends because of your own mistakes is part of life. You talk about it like it’s abuse.

          Exhibit A for why everyone needs therapy. I guess it’s little consolation that people reap what they sow.

            I hope you got the therapy you clearly need. People drop off the internet for all sorts of reasons. I remember bleeding friends because a platform died. It’s just how it is. This can be their lesson learned that you actually need multiple ways to contact your digital friends.

            If it were me, I would have been oh well too with my kid. Taking gambles like lying about your age sometimes doesn’t pay off. Sometimes your parents just up and move. Somehow I survived losing digital and IRL friends because of things I had no control over. Learning to cope with that is an adult skill that you everyone eventually needs.

              I do get therapy, thanks for the concern random stranger. I hope the same is true for you and that you understand that just because bad things happened to you doesn’t mean we should give such things a free pass and make ourselves emotionally unavailable to empathize with our children.

    Discord later banned the account for violating the TOS when lying about her age and stated they would only restore the account if they shared a photo of the kid along with a copy of her birth certificate or passport.

    The guy who applies for the “looking at pictures of little girls” position at discord needs to be on every single list

    Asked for comment, a Discord spokesperson told Ars that the platform “takes situations like this seriously, especially when they involve teens and account security.”

    More like Discord only takes these things seriously when an article drags them. Probably only banned the kids account because she dropped this on them and they handled it badly.

    Crazy how far this company has fallen, but that’s expected I guess when $$$ are on the line.

      The company has fallen? From where? Discord was bottom of the barrel for as long as I can remember.

        For the first few years, when it had no profit motive, no way to earn money, and was just willingly bleeding cash to gain market share, it was great! That is the first stage of enshittification and they are now on to stage 2: making the platform good for the real target audience, advertisers.

          It’s so fucked up that companies with too much capital to burn can just bleed money for years in order to starve the competition out and establish a monopoly.

          Few years? Nah man. Maybe the first few months but they were already laying the foundation 10 years ago by hosting the largest emote servers and running the Discord subreddit secretly themselves. They were always really shitty.

      The company has always been shit run by shitty people.

      Never trust a tech worker, they decided long ago to sell out the species and the planet.

        Dumbest comment today.

        Want to blame someone? Blame a farmer. We were doing fine until we invented agriculture.

        But just like the tech worker, farmers today are not to blame for the problems introduced in the past.

            So you don’t understand why agriculture is the root of all our problems?

            What exactly is “honest work”? Commenting bullshit on Lemmy like you? Using, I don’t know, technology that someone made, so you support that kind of work?

            I missed a good old troll in the wild. Thanks.

        As a tech worker, I resent that comment.

        As someone who volunteered time over 20 years to maintain a well-used open-source project, I think your comment is a cheap generalization that shows remarkably low forethought.

        As someone who knows what a comma splice is, though, I guess it’s all good.

          Tech workers keep the modern planet running.

          Do I regret the modern world frequently? Yes. But that’s like blaming the mechanic for a drunk driving accident.

        “Never trust a tech worker” they said, using a device designed by a tech worker, running software designed by a tech worker, accessing servers maintained by a tech worker, on a hosting service implemented and managed by tech workers, through an internet service provider employing tech workers galore.

        I don’t have proof, naturally, but I got the sense the friends they were losing were friends made on the platform. With the account being lost suddenly, there’s a good chance they didn’t have backup contact info for them.

          If only there were certain channels you joined that those names would still be there and you could just request access again on a new account and reunite with those friends.

          Alas, that is just a shooting star.

            Or if only there were some other way than Discord to have contacts. Or if these kids had some kind of critical thinking skills to think ahead in case something like this happened.

    The real question: Why didn’t she just make a new Discord account? It’s free and stupidly easy.

    It’s not that hard to contact your old friends and tell them your account was hacked. In fact, that happens all the time.

      It’s probably because we tell kids about how dangerous scams are and all the problems that can occur, but we don’t teach ways to mitigate the issue when it does occur, the child was probably worried that all of their friends would fall for the scam and everyone would get in trouble, it honestly sounds like she was more concerned for her friends then she was about her discord account.

      I’ve had adults act pretty much just like this, they are not well versed in how shit works but hear all the scary stories, so if things go a little wrong it is terrifying.

        Remember, kids: If we taught you how to protect your privacy and recover from things like this, you’d also learn how to get around the censorship we impose upon you so stay in the dark and suffer.

      I assume these are internet friends, otherwise yeah just talk at school and discuss the scam over phone or whatever.

        It must be a lot of friends who don’t all know each-other too.

        If it’s a bunch of friends on one discord server, surely it’s not too hard to get back on to that same server and say “my account was hacked”. But, if you have dozens of friends spread across many servers, you might not even remember the servers.

      There’s been a spate of Discord-based hacking attempts lately, two of my friends have had to do this. They can’t get their old accounts back, Discord is basically just ignoring them. Starting new accounts is easy.

      The hard part is that they also lost their gmail accounts, that’s a lot more important for most people to be able to recover. I recommend everyone with a gmail account do the “create an emergency recovery code” thing, print it out and store it somewhere safely off anything digital.

        This is how Discord works.

        I’ve two separate friends who lost access to their accounts. One lost it via hacking or social engineering, and the other lost access because their mail service shut down. Both long time users, with the subscription bullshit.

        Both struggled with support, neither got their accounts back. Both made new accounts and continued paying the subscription. Absolutely bonkers.

    Frey told Ars he was shocked to see a platform as big as Discord relying on such poor support infrastructure.

    It’s exactly what we can expect from tech companies these days.

    Discord later banned the account for violating the TOS when lying about her age and stated they would only restore the account if they shared a photo of the kid along with a copy of her birth certificate or passport. The father gave in and complied so she didn’t loose access to her friends.

    This is valid on Discord’s part. The father should have helped her to make a new account instead of giving away records if he’s really insistent on letting his kid have Discord. Also, “loose”

      The problem will always be that companies and organizations will still use it as a primary communication platform, same issue with Twitter and face book, I have left all those platforms but still have sock puppet accounts so that I can access information that is difficult to find elsewhere. It’s kind of a never ending cycle.

      We need a group of talented people who want to start making nonprofit social media platforms, but then maintain them in such a way that it attracts the companies, and organizations that currently use the for profit sites.

        If a company only communicates through facebook, discord etc, that company doesn’t exist for me. So far, I haven’t had any issues in my life because of it.
