Got a friend request from a Discord user with the name "check my bio"? Well clicking on the bio is like opening Pandora's box.
The grey market side of Discord has gone rampant in this new advertising technique. Malicious actors no longer will send a DM and let it hit your message requests. Rather they will send you a Discord friend request telling you to check their bio. And it's the wild west out there, scams, ads, fake giveaways, crypto double money scams, and community server advertisements.
There's some good and there is some bad. The bad thing is that it looks like Discord might not be doing anything. The good? You can easily prevent yourself from being targeted by scams or being advertised to by people trying to sell garbage.

Discord prioritising removing the #XXXX system instead of removing these accounts:

@clockwork3494 Год назад

Literally, worst part is removing the 4 number tag system will likely make scammers worse than they are now (which is horrendous to say the least) so it's a pretty big "yikes" if you ask me. If they really wanted to push this god awful change they could've at least focused on cutting scammers down prior to implementation but no.. why would they do that?

@rat-qw5ys Год назад

real cause it is wayyy more likely that we'd run out of usernames faster than tags. they shouldve just added another number to it (e.g #XXXXX) this way instead of only being 9,999 of a certain name there can be 99,999 ik i took this from the creators past video but thats my opinion

Discord not banning accounts for having scams and stuff in their bio almost sounds like a joke to me, my god. All that tells me is you can put the most vile, ToS breaking, possibly illegal stuff in your Discord bio and they literally will not give a shit or do anything about it.

@Jdbye Год назад

Thanks for making this video, I had somebody with "Check My Bio" in funny letters as their name add me as friend just a couple days ago and I was curious what it was about but there was no way I was actually going to follow the instructions so I ignored the friend request and moved on. This makes a lot of sense. It's just a repeat of the same old scams but with a new way to try to avoid getting banned.

@Bluebonez Год назад

@ibisskb Год назад

As a server owner I'd love it if bans reverted friend requests. Because they come and the damage is already done. Also I'd love to forbid users from doing friend requests/DMing people in a server. That way I don't have to kick the bot but just laugh at it until it leaves the server.

@conclusivestate Год назад

Although the first option seems kinda harsh, I agree more with the second one.

@ibisskb Год назад

@@conclusivestate Of course, it'd be a bit problematic, but by reverting it, I mean making it so any requests done are cancelled automatically so they don't get seen if a ban is done quick enough, specially from accounts like these. Not removing your already friended users.

@alldifferentaspects Год назад

I recently joined a server full of CP. Had no idea any of that was on the server, completely disturbing as people were trading it, absolutely disgusting. I reported the server multiple times to discord, emailed them constantly, no one ever responded or seemed to give any shits. A company like this should really step up their report system, I am disgusted by discords efforts to take action on this. This company is turning into roblox management way to fast and they need to get their shit together.

There are ways to prevent DMs from Random "People", you can first as you said in the Video disable all Friend Requests (or less if you have trust in "humanity") from your Settings and in Privacy and Safety (in your Settings, again) under Server Privacy Defaults you can chose to allow or not DMs From Server Members and so far, besides my friends who got hacked (won't help in this specific situation 🙃) I haven't gotten any suspicious links or whatever (this Setting isn't retroactive, which means you will have to go in each Server's Privacy Settings to disable Random DMs manually, in the Servers you were in before activating the Setting, to acces em you Right Click on PC or Hold your Finger on the Server's icon on Phone)

@i-love-my-cat-milo9 Год назад

I wonder if what I experienced is similar to this. In one server I'm in, I would always get messages and message requests from random people, and the one consistent thing was their bio had something to do with art, sometimes saying "commissions open." When I first received a message, I talked to someone who claimed their cat was sick and they needed commission money to help it. Now, the art examples they provided were a little sus. They seemed to be all different styles, and I was trying to reverse image search them but found minimal results besides one Twitter account for one of the works. I confronted them about it, and they didn't really settle my suspicion. I want to support artists as I am one too, but I was mainly confused, so I used the fact I don't have Paypal to get out of the conversation. Later, once I turned off messages for that server, I just got a bunch of friend requests from similar accounts. Some were older, and some were new. I don't know if they were all coming to my dms for comms or if they were scams or what. Either way, I don't like advertising in my dms, so I just turned off friend requests bc of the spam. :/

@meaty8887 Год назад

I don't think saying you're underage on the bio is violating the TOS, because someone who is 13+ could write that they are 9 on it. You'd have to report them that the bio was used with malicious intent, at least scamming, or other intents that they want to cause problems to others. The bios that basically promote the Crypto scam or other stuff like free Robux, or stuff that's basically violating the TOS is the only way if I'm correct.

8:30 there's a way to configure permissions such that people who newly joined can only see channels with nobody in the user list, and people who have been verified can't see those channels so they don't show up in the user list. Would this guard against this or can you still enumerate server members regardless of which channels you can see?

I reported an entire server. Gave discord a spreadsheet of all user ids in the server (everyone on the server was a bot), and discord replied back saying that "yea we took care of it" when the server is still up and running. Not only is the server still up and running every single member still is in the server. No bans or punishments have been issued to either the server owners or discord ids I sent them. Discord just does not care at this point it seems. I have been a supporter of discord since 2017 and I won't be giving discord another dime once my subscription expires.

I can only see this going wonderfully and I can't wait for my friends to be scammed by me (not me) because not me's "username" looks almost identical to mine on a glance because sometimes it's hard to see differences between "1" and the letter "I" and is no longer a completely different number code allowing the ability to differentiate us. The reason for this change? "It's way too hard to add your friends because username searching is case sensitive and you also have to use your brain and remember 4 numbers to add them" Uh yeah, I thought that was the point? Even then at the very least the easiest solution would be to make the current search system just.. not case sensitive?..
