Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens for the twinkling clue delivery! CTOnews.com, September 20 (Xinhua)-- A beta video of R Star's much-anticipated game masterpiece "GTA6" was leaked online last weekend, causing a sensation in the industry and becoming the most important game leak in history. Surprisingly, however, the man behind the leak was only a 16-year-old teenager.

Pompompurin, a well-known hacker and owner of the hacker forum BreachForums, revealed the identity of the hacker in the "GTA6" leak, saying that the culprit was the 16-year-old Tea Pot, the head of the cyber crime team Lapsus$. In its Telegram chat, it admitted to hacking into R Star and showed evidence, but the chat record was quickly deleted.

It is reported that the hacker group Lapsus$ has been involved in a number of hacking incidents since the end of last year, following attacks on many technology companies, including Microsoft, Samsung, Nvidia and Ubisoft. The hacker group has said that its main target is money, which is neither political nor sponsored by anyone.

It is worth mentioning that American taxi-hailing App Uber (UBER) also said that he was recently attacked by Lapsus$ and is now in contact with the Federal Bureau of investigation and the US Department of Justice.

CTOnews.com learned that R Star sent a message yesterday admitting that "GTA6" had been compromised, but said it would not have a long-term impact on its ongoing project.
