I received messages about an account that wasn’t mine, to an email address that wasn’t even the one I used back when I still had Discord.
It seems to be them, their address is correct, and is properly signed as far as I can tell.
What is even going on here. Come on, Discord.

I got this too.
I have a Discord account. But I was never able to use it because they demanded that I enter a phone number. Can’t do that, I dont have a phone number for security reasons.
And you can’t delete it without a phone number

They don’t let you use an account without a phone number anymore? Oh wow
You can, but I don’t know how/when they ask for it. When I changed my email on my main a couple months ago they asked for a number. When I changed the email of an alt recently they didn’t, which was weird.
Either way, I’m glad I don’t use it anymore. So much unnecessary data collection
Lots of social medias require a phone number nowadays. If you don’t add a phone number, at best they annoy you everyday to “secure your account”, at worst you can’t even login.
It sucks.
I remember Discord pestering me about it every now and then, but I could still use it without one.
As if that service needed to get any worse
