Discord is pretty much the communications platform for gamers these days. Text, voice, video, shared screens, specialized servers: Discord does it all. A side effect of that ubiquity, according to a report released earlier this month by Check Point Research (via TechRadar), is that Discord server invites are now an attack vector that online scumbags can use as part of phishing operations.
It's worth noting right off the hop that Check Point said "Discord took swift action to disable the malicious bot" used in the campaign it discovered, "which helps disrupt the current infection chain."
