Discord bots and other third-party bots

Some people are using unauthorized third-party bots on Discord or Telegram to automatically buy items in the Shop, join lobbies, or perform other actions on their behalf.

These bots are not made by Epic Games, are not official, and can spend your V-Bucks outside of your control if you provide them with access to your account. We’ve observed an uptick in this recently, in particular spending V-Bucks on in-island items.

You can remove access to any bots you previously granted access to by signing out of your Epic account across all sessions and devices, and then logging back into Fortnite. For details, see: How do I sign out of all devices and all signed in sessions for my Epic Games account?
