BonkerBot, a Discord scam filter with a corroboration floor
A Discord moderation bot that combines message structure, linked destinations, image OCR, perceptual hashing, and account reputation to identify scam patterns.
Field notes
The bot combines message and link checks with OCR for image-embedded scam text and perceptual hashing for re-cropped copies. Its reputation model uses a 0.0–10.0 score, velocity caps, passive recovery, and an additional penalty when three independent servers flag the same account. The page says moderation actions require corroborating signals and can be reviewed, reversed, audited, or halted with an emergency kill switch.
