'GTA 5 Online' news: New vehicles plus warning on fake money glitch and fake money generator scams
While "Grand Theft Auto 5 Online" remains a hit among players across the globe, new information and new warnings have recently surfaced online for faithful players of the game.
Rockstar has released huge discounts on vehicles and weapons, including some exclusive items that are hard to find, and with new content on the way soon, many rumors and speculations about the possibilities continue to roam online.
On the other hand, well-known GTA tipster TezFunz has refuted a fan's speculation that Rockstar Games has limited the number of vehicles to be added to the game to only about 25. While the fan's suggestion is referring to the follow-up after the Freemode Event update, TezFunz said, "I'm sure they can add more."
Meanwhile, another famed tipster and YouTuber, MrBossFTW, says players should beware of a fake Rockstar employee who tries to steal players' money. According to the International Business Times, the YouTuber was asked to pay $250 on PayPal to avoid facing legal charges, as well as getting his YouTube channel suspended. The fake employee also reportedly claimed that he holds copyright for the Rockstar material.
MalwareBytes Unpacked also warns players about sites claiming to offer huge and ridiculous amounts of money by going through "simple steps." The outlet notes that players might get attracted to the money offers since it is true that the "GTA" world runs around money.
According to the outlet, one such site is gta5moneyserver.com, wherein faked videogame site news pieces are rampant. The site goes as far as putting a number of acclaimed sites that have "confirmed and tested" the money server including GameSpot, IGN, Game Fly, and others.
The site requires that players enter their usernames into the box. After clicking "Submit Your Gamertag," a pile of money or something else awaits, but of course, all in vain, since the Rockstar and the game news networks have stated that the site is but a joke.
Another site is gta5moneyhackonline.com, wherein the site asks players to "complete an offer" to get "unlimited money." The next pages have nothing to offer but spamming a website to friends, loads of surveys, and the occasional download of some softwares that have nothing to do with the game.
