These tools are often third-party websites or involve scripts that claim to access IP address from Discord users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But here\u2019s the catch: Discord doesn\u2019t support these methods. In fact, most of these tools are straight-up scams or involve shady tactics like phishing or social engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two main types of Discord IP resolvers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"985\" height=\"581\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Discord-ID.png\" alt=\"GeoPlugin\u2019s screenshot of a user\u2019s Discord ID.\" class=\"wp-image-2831\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Discord-ID.png 985w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Discord-ID-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Discord-ID-768x453.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 985px) 100vw, 985px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Discord_ID_Method\"><\/span>Discord ID Method<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of Discord IP grabber claims to work by simply processing a user\u2019s Discord ID. Discord\u2019s developer mode allows users to gain access to any account\u2019s Discord ID.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, these tools often promise a one-click IP retrieval solution just by asking you for that ID. In reality, this kind of resolver can\u2019t pull anything useful. It is a scam because Discord does not expose your IP to other users.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/phone-869669_640-1.jpg\" alt=\"Image showing a man using his mobile phone.\" class=\"wp-image-2832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/phone-869669_640-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/phone-869669_640-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Link_Creating_IP_Resolvers\"><\/span>Link Creating IP Resolvers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This IP resolver creates a link you can send to a target user and convince them to click it. When they do, a website opens which logs their IP address.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can work because every website or link you visit can log your IP. So, while this method might work, it happens outside Discord\u2019s environment, meaning Discord isn\u2019t responsible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, the only way to get someone\u2019s IP is if they willingly (or unknowingly) click a suspicious link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"380\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/inf0sec-ss.png\" alt=\"GeoPlugin\u2019s screenshot from the inf0sec website of its home page.\" class=\"wp-image-2835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/inf0sec-ss.png 720w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/inf0sec-ss-300x158.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_an_IP_Resolver_Work\"><\/span>How Does an IP Resolver Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s break down how these so-called Discord IP resolver tools work or, more accurately, how they don\u2019t work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Discord_ID-Based_IP_Resolvers\"><\/span>Discord ID-Based IP Resolvers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some IP grabber Discord tools ask users to enter a target\u2019s Discord ID to obtain their IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get someone\u2019s Discord ID, the person attempting to track the target would first enable Discord\u2019s developer mode. Once enabled, the user can right-click on someone\u2019s profile and choose <strong>Copy ID<\/strong> from the drop-down menu.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this ID, they head to the IP resolver website, paste the ID, and expect to get the person\u2019s IP. But here\u2019s the reality check: the resolver returns a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/fake-ip-address-definition-usage-and-how-to-get-one\/\">fake IP address<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discord uses a server-based communication model, meaning all user interactions pass through Discord\u2019s servers. There\u2019s no direct peer-to-peer connection that would expose someone\u2019s IP to another user.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what these sites often do is spit out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/random-ip-generator-a-brief-overview\/\">random IPs<\/a> just to make it look like they\u2019ve done something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, an IP resolver tool called <strong>inf0sec<\/strong> once actually managed to pull IPs based on a Discord ID. The trick behind this wasn\u2019t some advanced hack.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=d0h4QPqAwss\">YouTuber discovered that<\/a> <strong>inf0sec<\/strong> had access to a database from Restorecord, a Discord bot. Restorecord verified new users of a Discord server by redirecting them to its website, where it logged their IP address.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, whoever verified themselves through Restorecord, <strong>inf0sec<\/strong> could grab their IP from that external database. But again, this wasn\u2019t because of Discord; it was due to vulnerabilities or possibly complicity of Restorecord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"995\" height=\"445\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Grabify-SS.png\" alt=\"geoPlugin\u2019s screenshot of Grabify\u2019s website\u2019s home page.\" class=\"wp-image-2837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Grabify-SS.png 995w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Grabify-SS-300x134.png 300w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Grabify-SS-768x343.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 995px) 100vw, 995px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Link-Based_IP_Resolvers\"><\/span>Link-Based IP Resolvers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s talk about the method that actually works. Link-based Discord IP resolvers don\u2019t rely on Discord ID at all. Instead, they ask the user to generate a tracking link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The person sends this link to the target, often with a convincing message like, &#8220;<strong>Look what I found, lol<\/strong>.&#8221; If the target clicks on the link, a website opens, and the tool logs their IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this method is real, it exploits standard internet behavior rather than Discord\u2019s infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"378\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Excerpt-from-Discord-Policy-Documet.png\" alt=\"geoPlugin\u2019s screenshot of an excerpt from Discord\u2019s Policy Document.\" class=\"wp-image-2839\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Excerpt-from-Discord-Policy-Documet.png 780w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Excerpt-from-Discord-Policy-Documet-300x145.png 300w, https:\/\/www.geoplugin.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Excerpt-from-Discord-Policy-Documet-768x372.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_It_Legal_To_Use_an_IP_Resolver_on_Discord\"><\/span>Is It Legal To Use an IP Resolver on Discord?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In its <a href=\"https:\/\/discord.com\/safety\/deceptive-practices-policy-explainer\">Deceptive Practices Policy Explainer<\/a>, Discord warns against using any tool like a Discord IP Resolver.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It says, \u201c<strong>Don\u2019t send malicious links.

And these <a href=\"https:\/\/geoplugin.com\/resources\/country-ip-blocks-what-they-are-and-why-they-matter\/\">bans are IP-based<\/a>, so you won\u2019t be able to join those servers again, even with a new account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The privacy document says, \u201c<strong>Discord<\/strong> <strong>may<\/strong> <strong>also<\/strong> <strong>take<\/strong> <strong>action<\/strong> <strong>against<\/strong> <strong>accounts<\/strong> <strong>that<\/strong> <strong>are<\/strong> <strong>present<\/strong> <strong>in<\/strong> <strong>violative<\/strong> <strong>servers<\/strong>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you see a server engaging in suspicious activities, you better leave it instantly.
