Hashbot can automatically scan messages for known malicious URLs and take action before members click dangerous links. This is a premium feature that uses real-time threat intelligence for URL scanning.
When enabled, Hashbot silently scans every message for known phishing, drainer, and scam URLs — and takes action automatically.

What It Detects

  • Phishing links — fake login pages impersonating Discord, crypto wallets, exchanges, etc.
  • Drainer sites — malicious DApps designed to steal cryptocurrency
  • Scam domains — fake giveaway sites, impersonation domains, and known scam URLs
  • Obfuscated URLs — shortened links and redirects that resolve to known threats
1

Open the Dashboard

Go to dashboard.hashbot.com, select your server, and navigate to Settings.
2

Enable the toggle

Toggle on Malicious Link Detection. This requires an active Hashbot subscription.
You can also enable it via Discord:
/settings malicious-link set-state detection-state:enable

Setting the Timeout Duration

When a malicious link is detected, the offending member receives a timeout. You can configure the timeout duration:
/settings malicious-link set-timeout hours:1
You can specify any combination of minutes, hours, and days.

How It Works

  1. A member sends a message containing a URL
  2. Hashbot extracts and checks the URL against a real-time threat intelligence database
  3. If the URL is flagged as malicious:
    • The message is deleted
    • The member is timed out for the configured duration
    • The action is logged to your log channel with the flagged URL and reason
Allowlisted users and manager roles are excluded from malicious link detection — they can share any URL without being flagged.
