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.

-RageQuit- I never understood how some people can come to be so stupid to fool for these sites.


Usually just little kids who aren't familiar with the Internet and people that are really gullible.

I don't understand what's so hard about not getting scammed. I usually have that feeling and just leave it alone.

Wilez I say more fool anyone who's foolish enough to do it.
It's like the MS point generators, they get people to post the same things over and over but neither party receive anything?
Seems very pointless to me - unless i'm missing something?


No, that's pretty much how it works.
