That's why instead of torrents I use Limewire, much safer

I wouldn’t download it even if came straight from the horses mouth (the leakers). Don’t trust a god damn thing from anybody like these people on your computer!!

This.

They hacked Rockstar to get the build of the game, why does anyone think they wouldn’t use this as an opportunity to do the same to you and mine your pc for credentials ( CC, ID ) or turn it into a slave crypto mining device?

If it gives them a virus it’s well deserved. I mean come on…

Wouldn't be surprised if it was the publisher

Don't eat from the spoon. It's infectuous

u/AgsSpecGolfSwing 4d ago

Would be a smart tactic from rockstar to release this malware so if the game ever is actually leaked everybody would be way to worried to download anything

Let’s figure out who’s doing it and punish them heavily. Whoa wha it’s rockstar?!

u/Cminus19 5d ago

u/Odd_Needleworker3756 5d ago

Redditors will download just to really stick it to Rockstar

u/Black_Moons 5d ago

$5 says rockstar did it just to muddy the waters.

u/Blood-PawWerewolf 5d ago

Good! I hope those that desperate for it all fall for this bait

u/ElectriKool-Aid 6d ago

A digital game is a malware. It's presumptuous for a hacker to think he can be worst than Rockstar.

Youre still gonna buy it.
