Internet-scraping outfit Spy.pet claims to have harvested more than four billion public messages made by nearly 620 million users on more than 14,000 Discord chat servers – and is selling access to this trove.
The website presents the data it’s collected in several ways. Each known user has a profile, which contains all known aliases, pronouns, connected accounts to other platforms such as Steam and GitHub, Discord servers joined, and public messages. If you wanted to quite literally spy on a Discord user or users, Spy.pet lets you do that, for a fee.
Any non-scams yet? Or is it safe to assume anything that looks like a scam, is one?
Nah I’ve found plenty of non-scams. Like $1 VSTs on some random guys domain (used a visa gift card), stuff like that.
But yeah lots of scams.
