An acquaintance of mine had their Discord account compromised. The compromised account struck up a conversation with me and requested I provide feedback on their new game.

The acquaintance does work in tech/gaming, so the conversation was at least somewhat feasible, but the request was odd and the website was obviously dubious. I've since reached out to the acquaintance who has confirmed their account was compromised.

DISCLAIMER: Do NOT run the executable available from the malware distribution website.

Yes, I've obfuscated the link somewhat. I don't want any accidents.

What's particularly interesting here though is that Discord's infrastructure is being used to distribute malware OUTSIDE Discord. The website has a link to Discord's CDN, where the malware is hosted. In addition to this, due to the incompetence of the hackers, I was also able to discern they're operating out of Guild ID: 836403789183451196.

Anyway, I wanted to report this scam to Discord. In app there's no suitable way to report this. I can report my acquaintances account, but not the malware distribution. So I opened a technical support issue against the Guild ID on Discord's support website. There's no sane options to report this, but I did my best.

However, unsurprisingly, in typical brain-dead tech support fashion, the issue was closed and I was told to report the issue in app.

Anyone have any ideas on how this can actually be reported to Discord?
