I got contacted on discord by StrayMutt whose discord is xJayx#5276. He made me go to a link that grabbed my ip. he found my ip and called my provider. he also says he's ddosing me. what do i do??? I'm sorta nervous right now since all the info he got was right.

When it comes to DDOS distributed denial of service one of the main things to do is wait it out, the attack is formed when 100's or more computers pings your one constantly.
If it's a DOS you can do much more, even find out the IP which is sending the pings to you.
*Imagine pinging like a doorbell, if its one at a time... it's annoying but you can bare with it... if the doorbell is ringing constantly and all over the place it might be hard to concerntrate... its kind of like that* (Well, pinging... sending packets... etc..)
Happily, discord has a thing called records... I recommend copying the chat log and saving it as a word document on your computer. then going forward to reporting him on discord. and then as long as you can link the discord account to his roblox account, reporting his roblox account aswell.
but only if he actually dosses you, it really never lasts forever... these things are just best ignored... just stop talking to him.
best not to antagonize though.
(If he doesnt stop, at least you will have the chat logs to back up your claim about him ddossing you should you report him to the police.) |

well if the guy is stupid enough when he just goes with a dos his ip would be on display.....
Else the police can ask discord for that, although I'd bet hes on a vpn so things complicate.
but yeah he could call his internet provider, they can probably change the ip next day. or the day after that. |

He did threaten to call my ISP, he actually said he did. However I don't think he can do anything too harmful without direct consent from the owners of the network.

| Alright, thanks guys, I know what info he has too. he used grabify so I know he doesn't have everything. I don't even think he has ## ######## He's just a 16 year old skid. More than anything I just want him to get permed on Roblox and DC. |

No worries mate, I.P adresses only last 4 minutes. The DDOS should be fine, but the part you can't fix is what matters.
I don't mean to scare you but, he now knows where you live. |

| Careful about what vpns you use, some of the vpns just straight up install RATS (Remote access tools) onto your computer. thats why I steer clear of free vpns. |

well you could wait for your IP to change, usually its just a router restart or 2 days
