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.

      Lots of social medias require a phone number nowadays. If you don’t add a phone number, at best they annoy you everyday to “secure your account”, at worst you can’t even login.

      It sucks.

        I remember Discord pestering me about it every now and then, but I could still use it without one.

        As if that service needed to get any worse

      You can, but I don’t know how/when they ask for it. When I changed my email on my main a couple months ago they asked for a number. When I changed the email of an alt recently they didn’t, which was weird.
