Episode 6- Discord: When the Conversation Leaves the Game

Episode 6 – Discord: When the Conversation Leaves the GameDiscord is one of the fastest-growing platforms in the world — a space where kids hang out, game, study, and connect. But behind the servers and voice chats, predators know how to exploit its features to groom, coerce, and trade illicit material.In this episode of Chasing Shadows, Sean Lacy takes you inside the world of Discord: what it is, how it works, why it’s so attractive to teens, and how offenders use it to target kids. We share a case where a 10-year-old with a “locked down” Roblox account was still contacted through Discord, offered Robux in exchange for explicit content, and messaged by offenders from around the world — all hidden in a single laptop.
