Hacker Hijacks Calamity Mod's 250,000-Member Discord for Crypto Scam
Original: Notorious Hacker Steals 250,000 User Discord Server For Infamous Terraria Mod Calamity, Immediately Uses It To Pump And
A notorious hacker seized control of the Discord server serving the Calamity mod community, one of the most popular mods for Terraria, and used it to promote a pump-and-dump cryptocurrency scheme. The server, home to around 250,000 members, was reportedly taken over before being repurposed to shill a coin, a growing tactic in gaming community hacks.
Why now: The takeover of a major gaming community's server for a crypto scam is a striking example of increasingly common Discord hijackings.
