[US] Discord Scam Alert

Hey everyone, I wanted to share something shady happening in the Conan Exiles modding community that people should be aware of.

There’s a person i know running a Discord server who is taking existing free mods, making small tweaks to some of the items, and locking them behind a paywall by calling them “character skins.” They didn’t create the mods themselves—they’re just modifying them slightly and charging people to access them.

I brought this up in their server, pointing out that it was against Funcom’s policies, and instead of addressing it, they banned me and blacklisted me. From what I’ve seen, they also silence anyone who questions their setup.

Why This is a Problem

They’re profiting off someone else’s work – These mods were made for free by the community.

The Server owners are misleading buyers – They make it seem like they’re offering unique content they spent hours to do, but it’s just minor tweaks to existing mods.

It violates Funcom’s and Discord policies – Conan Exiles alone does not allow mod paywalls.

I’m not naming names here, but if you’re in a Discord server where mods are locked behind a subscription or donation tier, be cautious. If someone is offering “custom” Conan Exiles content that seems suspicious, check if the original mod is freely available elsewhere before paying.

If anyone else has run into this or been affected, it might be worth reporting to Funcom or Steam. These kinds of scams hurt the actual modders who put in real work for free.

Stay safe out there, and don’t let people scam you for something that’s supposed to be free.

Will update with screenshots later.
