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.

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

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


Yeah they see the 'GTA' in the URL and think it must be real.
