We discovered yesterday that the Coneheads Discord link was hijacked because our server ran out of boosts. Since we didn’t maintain the boosted server name, someone was able to take the vanity URL and use it for a different server.

What This Means:

• If you joined the Coneheads Discord recently, double-check that you’re in the correct one.

• The fake server has around 2055 users, while the real one currently has 987 members.

• Check the comments for screenshots of the fake server.

What We Found:

• After testing the verification process in the fake server, it appears to trick users into giving it access to their wallets and the wallet alone. It doesn’t ask to sign contracts or appear to have the ability to drain assets.

• Be cautious of any messages, links, or requests for verification in that server.

What You Should Do:

1. Leave the fake server immediately if you joined it.

2. Make sure you are in the official Coneheads Discord.

3. Avoid interacting with any suspicious links or verification prompts.

Everything has now been fixed on our end, and the false Discord link has removed. Remember to send a modmail to request an invite to our official discord. Thanks to u/Prestigious_Art_649 post and u/Sm3cK for bringing this to our attention and a big thanks to u/OniCowboy for helping investigate the issue. Stay safe, and let us know if you have any questions.

I’m sorry folks, thought this was removed long ago.

I do not want to support discord anymore. Riddled with nothing but trolls and scammers for our community.

Use the Reddit chat instead please.

The real discord will have the Conehead avatar head for our icon and look like this after you join.

With pleasure ! Glad to help. I was very lucky on this one because the "only bad thing" is that I had to format my computer. Luckily the guy who accessed my exchange account wasn't able to withdraw anything.

I quit Discord last July or August. If you see my name or Dewman1971, it's not me, and let me know. I signed out and all of that, but I did have trouble before, and guy can probably tell you what. It didn't concern anything about coneheads or avatar subs. Thank you, and I'm glad I'm not on there anymore and wouldn't connect wallet to any server on there. I didn't do it for ships' server either. !tip 2663.42069
