Beta and early-access invites
An email or DM says you were picked to play early. The link leads to a polished copy of Rockstar's site that asks you to log in or download a "beta key".
The tell: there is no beta and no early access.

Your guide to Leonida
An unofficial GTA 6 companion: progress trackers, a trophy list for both consoles, plain how-to guides and a scam checker. It runs in pre-launch mode until the game is out, then fills in as information becomes public.

How-to guides
Short, step-by-step, and written from what is confirmed.
Trailers, stores, community
Official media is linked here, not copied. The artwork on this site is original and drawn for it.
Check it before you click
Paste the link, message or offer. The check compares it against the scams security researchers have reported around the launch and against what Rockstar has actually announced.
The scams going around
Eight formats reported by security researchers and gaming press in the run-up to launch.
PC installers and demos
Lookalike sites with a "Play now" button hand you an installer. Researchers found password stealers, remote-access tools and ransomware inside these files.
The tell: there is no PC version and no demo to download.
Phone apps
Android apps and downloads named after the game push adware or banking malware, or bounce you through pages that sign you up for paid subscriptions.
The tell: the game is not on phones.
Fake pre-order pages
Copies of store pages take your card number and personal details for an order that never exists.
The tell: the address is not the PlayStation Store, the Microsoft Store or a retailer you know.
Cheap keys and codes
Sellers in DMs and on marketplaces offer codes far below retail. They are stolen, locked to another region or simply made up.
The tell: a new copy priced well under $79.99.
Giveaways
"Follow, share and win a copy" posts send winners to a page that wants a login, a card number or a survey.
The tell: a real giveaway never needs your password, payment details or a download.
Generators and survey walls
Sites promise a free copy or in-game money once you pass "human verification". The verification is a chain of surveys, app installs or subscriptions.
The tell: nothing is delivered after you verify.
Account phishing
Messages ask you to confirm a pre-order or secure your account by signing in through their link, then keep the password and the code you type.
The tell: no company needs your password to confirm an order.
If you already clicked
What to do depends on what you gave away. Start with the one that applies.
- You typed a passwordChange it now on the real site by typing the address yourself. Change it anywhere else you reuse it, and turn on two-step verification.
- You ran a downloadDisconnect that device and run a full scan with a security tool you trust. Then change your passwords from a different device, because password stealers copy saved logins.
- You paidCall your card issuer or bank and dispute the charge. If you paid with a gift card or crypto, contact that company immediately. Recovery is unlikely but faster is better.
- Report itReport the page or account on the platform where you saw it, and file a report with your country's fraud agency.
