Requires Manage Server permission
Scrump can detect and block MrBeast scam images posted in your Discord server, including fake giveaways and impersonation scams. It also protects your community from other known image-based scams. You choose whether Scrump removes the message, takes action against the sender, or alerts your moderation team.

Enable Scam Protection

Use /automod enable block-scams and select an option from actions_taken. The available actions are:
Start with Send alert/log only if you want to review detections before enabling automatic moderation.

Configure alerts and timeout duration

The command includes three optional notification settings:
  • alerts_channel - The shared moderation log channel where detection alerts should be sent.
  • ping_alert_role - A role to mention when an alert is sent.
  • dm_message - An optional custom message that replaces Scrump’s default account-security DM.
alerts_channel is required when using Send alert/log only. Setting it also changes the server’s generic moderation log channel. You can manage the same channel with /settings moderation set-log-channel or in the Security dashboard. When Mute user and delete message is selected, open Security -> Scam protection to choose a timeout from 30 minutes to 30 days. The command response includes a direct dashboard link. The default is 14 days. After Scrump successfully mutes, bans, or kicks a sender, it DMs them a default account-security warning with the server name, action taken, and recovery steps. Scrump sends this warning only once to each user per server. Plus servers can replace the default warning with either plain text or an embed from the Security dashboard. The editor remains available with every selected action, but Scrump sends the message only after Mute user and delete message, Ban user and delete message, or Kick user and delete message succeeds. Every default or custom version includes a Secure your Discord account button that opens Scrump’s account-recovery guide. If the user cannot receive DMs, the punishment still succeeds and a later detection can retry the notification.
1

Choose the actions

Run /automod enable block-scams and choose the response you want from actions_taken.
2

Choose an alerts channel

Select a private moderation or logging channel using alerts_channel.
3

Choose a role to ping (optional)

Select a moderator role using ping_alert_role if your team should be notified immediately.
4

Customize the member message (optional)

Plus servers can open the Security dashboard to build a plain message or embed and preview it before saving.

What Moderators See

Alerts identify the member, the channel, the message, and the action taken. Every confirmed alert, deletion, timeout, kick, or ban also appears in the member’s moderation history and the website moderation archive available with Plus.

Required Bot Permissions

Scrump needs permissions that match the actions you select:
  • Manage Messages to delete scam messages.
  • Moderate Members to mute users.
  • Kick Members to kick users.
  • Ban Members to ban users.
  • Send Messages and Embed Links in the selected alerts channel.
If Scrump cannot perform the selected action, update its server permissions and run the enable command again.

Disable Scam Protection

Use /automod disable block-scams to stop scam-image moderation for the server. Disabling the feature clears its selected action, custom member message, and ping role. It does not clear the shared moderation log channel. If the server loses Plus, saved custom scam messages are ignored and Scrump sends its default account-recovery guidance instead.
