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.

Similar thing happened to my sister. She got an email from a one of the biggest online shopping websites here where she doesn’t have an account. Someone created an account with her email, she got a buying confirmation mail. Then we used forgot password link and login to that account. We can see everything, their address credit card number phone number etc.

She called them and learned that they have the same email address but on hotmail. Stupid people. Stupid online shopping website.
