Rockstar Claims They Will Fix GTA Economy, But Can't Fix Modded Money
This hack was being perpetrated on modded consoles, and the money being brought into legitimate units, with the hackers going Robin Hood, spreading the money around everywhere.
The circumstances that led to this revelation are somewhat outstanding. Some fans put up a GTA Online stream a week ago, and were themselves the recipient of said money. They received a huge sum of money which in terms of microtransactions would have cost them a real life amount of $ 20,000. In this case, of course, they had to bring it up with Rockstar.
In Rockstar’s words, they are not able to remove the money from the player’s game. In case they get a ban or penalty, they should contact Rockstar again.
What makes this response extra shocking is that they made a public statement that indicated otherwise. On their official site, they claimed that they continued to balance the dynamic in-game economy and that they were working to adjust or close any exploits to get more cash. Rockstar also made it explicit that they were tracking down player data, as well as direct feedback, so that players can make sure everything in the game is done fairly and on the level.

TrickshotRano People just ruin the economy by modding and such, I'm sure the game is very boring for those who modded their money.
People who mod always ruin the game for them selves

There are no hacked lobbies yet, but I'm assuming when there is, you may get banned.

Grimgaz Why do modders have to wreck the Game like really ???
Because free money is free money. It was a good opportunity to rack up on big money.

That's more or less what they're saying man. It's quite stupid really.

Do you mean Glitches? Mostly because they're all ten year old squeakers who don't have a social life and don't want to play the game legitimately.
