# Staying Safe on Discord

Guidance to avoid scammers that try to steal funds and NFTs via Discord.

## Identify Genuine Staff & Ambassadors On Discord

* In The Sandbox's official Discord community, <mark style="color:blue;">**staff will have blue usernames**</mark><mark style="color:blue;">.</mark> This is true for all staff, whether they are community managers, moderators, or support.
* We also have some Ambassadors in The Sandbox's official Discord community. These are not staff members, but are trusted members of the community who can help you. <mark style="color:orange;">**Ambassadors will have orange usernames**</mark>.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**COMMUNITY STAFF & AMBASSADORS WILL NEVER DO ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:**

* Send you a direct message (DMs) or friend request. Even if it's for support purposes (that's what the private support tickets are for).
* Send you information about sales, giveaways, contests, passes, NFTs, tests, and so on in DMs.
* Ask you to send funds or NFTs.
* Ask you for wallet seed phrases, wallet passwords, or account passwords.
* Ask you to connect your wallet to anywhere that is not an official The Sandbox website ([**see the Official Links page**](/en/accounts/security-topics/officialtsblinks.md)).
* Ask you to re-verify / reauthenticate your wallet or similar.&#x20;

The Discord Community - besides offering a place to communicate with others, share your content, reach out to the team, and seek support - also provides a place to safely and privately report scams and scammers to The Sandbox.

### How to Report Scams

Visit the **Reporting Scams** channel, which is underneath the **Security & Anti-Scam** category.

You'll notice two red buttons to report scams in this channel:

* **Report a Website / Social Page**
* **Report a Person / Bot**

Select one and a quick form will pop up asking for the details of the address or individual you are reporting. Once you submit this, it is sent to all of The Sandbox's moderators, as well as their community managers.

The above methods are privately reported. You can also report a person or bot by typing **@The Sandbox Moderators** to tag them in the relevant channel about the offending post, but it will be visible to other Discord users.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.sandbox.game/en/general/discord-community/safety-report-scams.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
