Discord Data Breach: 5CA Denies Responsibility for 70,000 Government ID Compromise
Discord’s recent data breach involving 70,000 government IDs has taken a contentious turn as customer service partner 5CA denies any system compromise. The company insists the incident occurred outside their infrastructure, pointing to potential human error instead of a technical breach.
In a surprising development following Discord’s recent data breach disclosure, customer service support company 5CA has publicly contradicted the gaming platform’s account of events. The controversy centers around the exposure of approximately 70,000 government-issued identification documents, including driver’s licenses and passports, which users had submitted for age verification purposes. What began as a routine security notification has evolved into a complex dispute between service partners, raising significant questions about accountability in third-party customer service relationships.
