Modder adds scams to GTA 5, gets scammed himself
Original: I've added scams to GTA 5, but I might have scammed myself At least I have a stylish new bag. https://www. pcgamer.com/g
A modder has added a working scam system to Grand Theft Auto 5, letting players con each other in-game. The twist, as PC Gamer reports, is that the creator may have fallen victim to his own scam mechanic, losing out while walking away with only a stylish in-game bag for his trouble. The project is drawing attention for its irony and as a curious piece of GTA 5 modding.
Why now: The irony of a creator being scammed by his own scam mod is entertaining and highly shareable.
