Ballstorture is back and annoying GTA Online players with their hack of sending mass invites and spam messages through Lester.

Rockstar has been known for not having the best security for their data. After all, GTA 6 was leaked extremely early due to the fact that their security is not the best compared to other video game companies. The lack of security has plagued a large number of Rockstar’s games, including GTA Online.

Due to the lack of security, people can easily hack or manipulate web servers to annoy those who want to play the game normally. And right now, the infamous “BallsTorture” is back with another hack. This is especially bad timing because the Last Dose missions are finally out and players have to suffer through these hacks.
