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.

    since you haven’t used it in a while, perhaps it was hacked and the email changed without your knowledge. I had some of my accounts hacked a while ago when my phone was compromised and unless you stay on top of that stuff they can delete the notification email quick. discord especially is not only horrible for privacy but a haven for hackers and generally shady people

      The name they addressed this to is not what mine ever was, and I requested deletion for my actual account over two years ago. Got the confirmation shortly after, so I’d hope my account is actually gone.

      Well, as gone as it can be, with Discord probably keeping everything anyway.
