Cybercriminals Turn GTA VI Leaks Into Malware Bait
Brief
A fake 113GB GTA VI build is packed with malware, using massive empty files to hide a tiny malicious payload.
GTA VI hype has reached the point where people are volunteering to infect their own computers just to check if a leak is real. Someone on X asked their followers to “take one for the team” and test a 113GB file claiming to be a playable Grand Theft Auto VI build, according to Tom’s Hardware’s reporting . Someone did, and the results were exactly what you’d expect.
A user that goes online with the handler @Aidas29506493 analyzed the file and found that it was completely fake and contained malware. Almost all of its 113GB consisted of empty data, with a tiny malicious payload hidden inside.
