Beware Fake Verify Bot — Enzo’s Hangout! Alert
Summary
In Enzo’s Hangout! this announcement warns members about a malicious 'verify' bot that requests access to username, avatar, banner, server list, and the ability to join servers. With these permissions it can log users out and spam invites, risking wider account compromise. The post explains the threat and urges caution to protect the community.

When you click the 'verify' button, it takes you to an external site, where this verification bot asks to access your account, as any other bot does.
It looks usual at first, but once you read what it can do is where you see what it does:
-
Access your username, avatar and banner.
-
Know what servers you're in
-
Join servers for you
With these permissions plus more, the bot can log you out, and spam "check my bio" or an invite link to the server, which gets more people hacked too.
