There appears to be a newish phishing scam going around. Actually, it's apparently been around for at least a year, so many of you may already be aware of it, but this is something I just learned about within the past couple days when both of my main accounts here were targeted. How it works is that they'll send you a "concerned" DM saying that they were recently the victim of hacking and mistakenly reported your account as the culprit and that now, if you don’t want your account terminated, you need to contact a deviantART admin via Discord to rectify the situation. This is obviously a scam; there's always a notification above new messages warning you that DeviantArt will NEVER ask you to move off-site to another site like Discord in order to verify your account, etc. However, I guess these scams count on people panicking and not thinking clearly. The accounts that contacted me must belong to poor saps who themselves were duped and hacked. Anyway, although this may be old news
