GTA Online Players Who Used New Glitch Getting Their Account wiped

4.3
GTA Online players who have exploited the game's latest glitch are reportedly getting their entire accounts wiped clean. More specifically, players who gamed the system by cashing in on the casino chip glitch -- the latest popular money glitch in the game -- are not just getting all of their character's money taken away, but apparently Rockstar Games is resetting their entire accounts. This means characters, progress, inventories, etc., will all be wiped clean.

Word comes way of Rockstar Games insider and reporter Tez 2, who not only relayed word of the development, but provided examples of players' accounts getting hit with the reset hammer. However, there also appears to be a minority of cases where players are only getting money wipes, not complete account resets. That said, at the moment, it's unclear why some players are getting complete resets while others are only feeling Rockstar's response in their virtual wallets.

"Rockstar Games is in the process of resetting GTA Online characters, progress, and inventory of all the players who have done the casino chip glitch, also known as the latest money glitch," said Tez 2 via Twitter. "Not a money wipe, a complete reset."


At the moment of publishing, Rockstar Games has not commented on this report or issued any type of statement pertaining to the situation.

This is not the first time Rockstar Games has taken action against accounts that have taken advantage of money exploits, but usually it dishes out punishment in the form of money wipes only.

jkiskl Shouldnt ban people for glitching thats just stupid. Maybe fix your game and not blame the people using the broken aspects of the game.


I agree you shouldn't get banned or in this case an account wipe but there needs to be some level of enforcement to discourage people from doing it again.

tO0t I wonder why they're cracking down on everyone so close to the end of this games life, huge banwaves lately on pc.


We still won't see GTA VI for years so it isn't anywhere near the end of its life.

Damn... They have been cracking down hard lately. I saw that Disturbed Mod menu is currently down for safety. I will need to login into my GTA V online account and see if I got banned for anything, lol.

Fr... I mean to wipe someone who got money drops, dropped money and the like is one thing, but they made the game so that it pretty much can't be played if you don't have a lot of money. These are people who have put potentially hundreds of hours into the game and are just trying to enjoy things that have been largely out of reach for them.

Gossip This is pathetic. It is in game currency lmao not even real money jesus.


When you play the game and plan to abuse bug or glitches in the game you should expect to be punished. I feel like its similar to cheating.
