A group of hackers published a list of email addresses and passwords they say they phished from users of the gaming chat platform Discord.
The list was small, totaling in at only around 2,500 logins, but the news still acts as a reminder that Discord users need to remain vigilant against phishing.
This was no virus, worm, or malware of any sort it was a simple old phishing site that utilized Discord's moronic API to hijack these accounts.
Along with their message, the hackers posted a database of the allegedly phished credentials, split into multiple sections of those that work and those that don't.
