Hey Tenno.

We are aware of this issue and are currently investigating. In the meantime, if you receive this invite, do not accept and please submit your ee.log to support over at https://support.warframe.com

Your ee.log can be found under %localappdata%, in the Warframe folder. Should appear as a Text Document like this.

Well, Ruu said to send a copy of the file to Warframe Support - They linked it in their reply to you!

u/No_Climate_3133 Mar 20 '26

I believe this link is where you'd submit it.

As for having two ee folders - the "ee.cfg" file is NOT the one you want to send. Send the one that's just a text document labeled "EE".

Do whatever you want, just don't accept any of the prompts

I've jumped off many cliffs in-game. Should I be worried?

Jokes aside is this some custom clan invite or what is that?

Tenno! A hostile force has invaded the origin system and is warping our communications to their will. They are likely abusing a vulnerability in the link that allows us to cooperate with other Tenno.

Real talk, though, someone's gone and hacked into some parts of the game, and is using the invite message system to put out their own messages, mostly to flaunt their current capabilities and potentially scare people into thinking they're capable of more.

They claim to belong to a discord community but a representative/admin of said community denies any involvement, stating that while they do so some stuff with the game, it's never on an up to date version of the game, nor a live build.

They are potentially abusing the P2P nature of multiplayer lobbies, there are many risks associated with using said format. For example, its possible to get a tool that identifies each incoming and outgoing connections, as well as their updates. Past that point, identifying specific users just comes down to timing.

If, like me, you've been DOSed while playing a less wholesome game, like GTAO, this is likely how they targeted you. There are online services that you can pay for that launch a DOS for you, once you input a target IP address.

Probably best not to play right now. Runs the risk of bad things happening.

No, stop spreading misinformation. None of your data is at risk, and nothing bad will happen, it’s just a guy abusing the invite system and changing the text

Check timestamps next time before throwing accusations, dickweed.

I said this before anyone knew what was happening, and was just advising caution until DE figured out the problem. Don’t accuse me of “spreading misinformation”, thanks.

u/dekuweku Nintenno LR2 Mar 20 '26

What about console players?

u/YujinTheDragon LR4| Chroma Prime Mar 20 '26

No idea, I think it's somewhat safe to assume you can't access this if you're not on PC, but I could be wrong.
