Power Up Gaming founder Chris Mawson described the warning in an October 19 account of his October 18 CBS Miami appearance. Unverified installers and imitation login pages can put personal information at risk; he also cautioned against paying cryptocurrency or connecting a wallet for supposed access.

The outlet says Rockstar has not announced a public beta or early-access program for GTA 6.

Mawson advises visiting Rockstar’s website or legitimate platform stores directly, rather than following unfamiliar messages or download links.
