TO ANYONE WHO USES DISCORD- FOUR AI SCRAPING BOTS HAVE BEEN SECRETLY ADDED TO YOUR SERVERS WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT
Saw this going around and tested it myself, and I can confirm that this is unfortunately legit. Four hidden bots have been placed in any existing or newly created Discord server that are harvesting data, images, and most concerningly, one seems to be a face swap bot.
Due to them being invisible, banning them from your servers isn’t possible without their ID’s, which I’ve typed out for easy access.

1104973139257081909Banning is done with the /ban command with each string pasted in one at a time. Four ban commands in total.
Image proof below and further information. This was in my PERSONAL server that has existed for +5 years. Discord is harvesting your shit without your consent, fight back.
Hey so in case you’re like me and wondered: Can you ban members without them being in the server?
The answer is yes, you absolutely can! It’ll look like this - the numbers you paste will be what’s “banned”
However my sibling tried this in her servers and found that One of them was NOT a string of numbers, like so:
And for clarity it isn’t a difference in user or device, this is what she got elsewhere:
So if you ban these numbers and the message shows the actual username? Pretty sure that means they were in there.
Very unpleasant way to check the veracity of this post but hopefully this is a helpful tip for anyone who was concerned - my sib would have No Reason to add these in herself and didn’t have any clue it was in there.
Personally, I’d say even if you are still worried about misinfo/fearmongering/etc from this post, think of it this way - worst case scenario is you’re banning a bot you’ll never use or need. Not a person, a bot. There’s no real damage done playing it safe and running the ban commands through, aside from maybe losing some time doing so.
Best of luck everyone.
Wishing I’d seen this more quickly - Had to take these things out of a lot of creative spaces just now. I’m not convinced that the username only shows up if they were in there, but I do think it’s better safe than sorry, especially when peoples’ art is involved.
@returnsnull7404 hey this is VERY much real I just took all of them off my discord
This worked on my end too (two servers, one of which only has ME ALONE as a member! Also worked for a friend who had a similar experience)

FAFO IN MINNEAPOLIS
this asshole had the entire city scared he was going to lead some kind of klan march and rampage through an immigrant neighborhood. he showed up yesterday with about 5 people and “marched” less than one city block before counter protestors super-soakered his ass in 10⁰ weather, pushed him back to his hotel, and ran him out of town. so so so proud of my city
