AntiScamBOT Patch Adds Link Image OCR Scanning

Summary

AntiScamBOT now downloads and OCR-scans image links in messages so linked screenshots are detected like attachments. The update supports Discord CDN/media links and common formats such as .jpg .png .webp and .gif. This prevents users from bypassing image scanning by posting scam images as links, improving community safety.

AntiScamBOT Patch

AntiScamBOT now checks scam images sent as links, not just uploaded attachments.

  • image links in messages are now downloaded and scanned with OCR.
  • Discord CDN/media links are supported, including links like media.discordapp.net and cdn.discordapp.com.
  • Common image links such as .jpg, .png, .webp, .gif, and similar formats are supported.
  • Scam screenshots hidden behind image URLs can now be detected the same way normal attachments are.
    This means users can no longer bypass image scanning by posting the scam image as a link instead of uploading it directly.
