The GTA 6 leaker is selling ads now

For $165,000, you too can ask Cyberleek about promoting your product on his videos.

The GTA 6 leaker is selling ads now

Grand Theft Auto 6 leaker Cyberleek is surprisingly selling advertisements, contrary to the expectation of keeping a low profile. Cyberleek's website now features a contact tab, stating that they are raising funds through community support and strategic partnerships, but not through ransom demands. Instead, they offer premium advertising space and exclusive content opportunities.

Interested parties can send Monero payments for secure contact via Session messenger, with options to purchase ad placements or request customized gameplay footage. However, this move poses significant risks, as powerful entities like Take-Two and law enforcement agencies could exploit the situation. The cost of such an ad buy is approximately $164,730, which raises concerns about the potential backlash.

While Cyberleek's boldness is intriguing, this approach appears to be a reckless and ill-advised decision.
