Suffice to say, there may be more stories like this in the coming years. This practice seems to have caught the attention of hackers and modders who may have a new target for their hoaxes. Whether a subtle notification of DLC or a full-blown tutorial for lootboxes, we get covert commercials in our games. Games, for better or worse, have become the newest advertising vehicle. The unfortunate truth is that where there’s an audience there is someone who will be making something for them. A quick search shows there are a depressing number of people pulling the same stunt. In a justifiably infamous video, youtuber Sernandoe claimed to be the owner of the first copy of GTA VI. It’s fair to say that GTA is quite the target for these kinds of shenanigans. The hackers only seem to have been able to access PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. Xbox One and PS4, appear to be completely free of any issues. The silver lining? Not all the GTA Online servers have been compromised. Some users have reported that the hack has caused performance issues and, in some cases, the notifications have led to the game crashing. Unfortunately there’s a bit more bad news to come. GTA 5 MONEY GLITCH - FREE UNLIMITED MONEY WARNING.

Obviously though, with no announcement on the part of Rockstar, the hoax holds absolutely no water. But alas, this is total baloney, propagated by hackers slipping some mods in.
