Take-Two taking action against Grand Theft Auto scammers

4.4
Following its successful efforts last month to remove offending sites such as getgtavbeta.com and betagtav.com, Take-Two currently has two more disputes in the offing.

The sites claim to offer early access beta keys to users who spread the scam via social media. In the case of gta5betacode.com , the user is asked to download files. The other site, grandtheftauto5beta.com , is currently offline.

The two complaints are filed with the World Intellectual Property Organization, and if Take-Two's previous successes are any indication, the offending sites will be removed soon.

It happens to those games because they are big. The more popular the game is the more money they will make from the people playing it.

GearzyTV This is why us smart people take those sites down though, to keep the dumb ones from getting **** over. Shame they don't appreciate our efforts but hey we feel better in the end :D


If you're hinting at DDOS, you don't need to be smart to DDOS.
