All the principled pirates have jumped ship to lemmy so it was bound to happen sooner than later.

That's some low effort spam, no wonder even Reddit's default spam filter caught it and that mod had to manually approve it. Back when I was helping mod on Reddit we used to see that sort of discord link spam nearly every day. Just spam/removed it & moved on.

The sad thing is that r/Piracy mod likely got scammed himself. Besides that mod who would really believe a scammer is going to send $800 via PayPal of all things? Most likely some sort of scam/hacked account, the payment will be reversed and that mod's PayPal account may get locked/banned in the process.
