Communication through Discord channels is a very popular way of interaction. They tried to cleverly extract money from Stardew Valley fans by offering to join the club of status people
The Stardew Valley community has recently been attacked by scammers. At the same time, they acted very boldly, trying to create something like a community for the elite.
A certain Discord channel appeared for the Stardew Valley community, access to which could only be obtained by those players who will pay for their membership. Such a “premium Discord” began to be actively advertised online.
However, this is not some kind of club for status players in Stardew Valley, but an ordinary fraudulent scheme. The entrepreneurs used an account with the letter “r” added to the beginning of its name. Then from this account @rStardewValley they started promoting their Discord.
Stardew Valley forum moderators had to issue a statement about the situation. They explained that this is a fraudulent project and they have nothing to do with the “premium Discord channel”.
The Discord service attracts not only ordinary users, but also similar ill-wishers. Some create fraudulent channels, and sometimes hackers attack ready to take control and try to deceive participants.
