Discord Server for Dashboard

💡 Safeguarding your Discord server is essential to protect it from unauthorized
access and malicious activity.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Require 2FA for admins to prevent unauthorized logins. It adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification.

Manage Roles and Permissions

Assign roles carefully, granting only the necessary permissions. Avoid giving too many users admin privileges, and never use the @everyone role for sensitive access.

Use Bots for Moderation

Use moderation tools (e.g., bots) to automatically filter spam, manage user behavior, and remove inappropriate content, ensuring a safer server environment.

Set Verification Levels

Require new members to verify their email or phone number before interacting to block bots and trolls.

Review Audit Logs

Regularly check audit logs to monitor admin actions and spot any suspicious activity.

Implementing these steps can significantly enhance the security of your Discord server and create a safer environment for your community.

Individual Protection

💡 As fraudulent individuals persist in targeting Web3, it is essential to proactively safeguard yourself on all social media channels, such as Discord, to avoid falling prey to scams. This guide will detail crucial steps to ensure your safety and shield you from scammers on Discord.

Configuring Privacy Settings

To enhance your safety on Discord, it is essential to configure your privacy settings effectively. Follow these steps:

Navigate to user settings.
Click on Privacy & Safety.
Select the option that best suits your preferences for direct messaging. This will allow you to filter direct messages by default across all servers

Disabling Direct Messages from Specific Servers

You also have the option to turn off direct messages from users of specific servers. Follow these steps:

Right-click on the server icon of the Discord server you want to modify.
Click on Privacy Settings.
Choose whether you want to allow or disallow direct messages from users of the specific server.

Verifying User Identities

Verifying User Identities

Always double-check the identity of users who claim to be staff members of a server. Follow these steps:

Right-click on a user's profile and copy their ID.
Verify the ID with the appropriate server to ensure it matches the intended individual.
If in doubt, reach out to the server's staff to confirm the identity.

Avoiding Common Scams on Discord

💡 Familiarize yourself with common scams used by scammers on Discord to protect yourself and your assets.

Moderator Impersonation

Be cautious of individuals pretending to be server moderators and requesting compromising information about your wallet or assets. Legitimate moderators will never ask for personal information, verification, or seed phrases publicly or privately.

Fake Airdrops

Exercise caution when engaging in peer-to-peer trades on Discord servers, as scammers may attempt to share fake airdrop links.

Phishing

Beware of scammers phishing for private keys or passwords via DMs. Never disclose your private key, as it can grant access to your wallet and result in irreversible asset loss.

Important Reminders

Never share your seed phrase or send it via Discord DMs or servers.
No one on the Galxe team will DM you requesting data.
Avoid scanning QR codes to sign into your Discord account.
If a bot DMs you to verify or redirect to another site, double-check with the server admins to ensure it is the authentic bot before clicking anything.
Avoid screen sharing with random individuals on Discord.
When interacting with DMd links, always double-check the URL as scammers often change domains or add additional characters.
