Hackers infiltrate Discord’s ID checks, and it’s bad news — 70,000 users’ personal data exposed

As an analyst, I’ve been following the recent Discord breach, which lasted just over two days – 58 hours to be exact. We believe the attack was carried out by three known hacking groups: Scattered Spider, LAPSUS$, and ShinyHunters. Discord officially confirmed the incident on October 2, 2025, reporting that approximately 70,000 users globally were impacted.
