New malware is being distributed that pretends to be a hack that gets you the premium Discord Nitro service for free but instead steals user tokens saved in the various browsers, credit card information, and then tries to spread it to others.

When you have an open platform like Discord that makes it easy to modify the JavaScript files utilized by the client, threat actors commonly abuse it to modify the client to perform malicious behavior.

These modifications are precisely what a new malware called NitroHack is doing to steal Discord user tokens, steal saved credit cards, and spread the malware to your friends via Discord DMs.
