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.

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
