The story continues: The Florida Joker has posted a new video - this time threatening to join forces with the hacker who previously hacked Rockstar Games

Since the release of the first GTA VI trailer in December last year, Rockstar Games has been the target of a series of threats from the "Florida Joker", a person whose appearance was parodied in the trailer. He recognised his approximate image in one of the characters in the trailer, who was wearing overalls during the filming, and decided to try to make some money by demanding money from Rockstar Games for using his image without permission. And since then, his demands have been getting more and more absurd...

Here's What We Know

In his latest video, the Florida Joker demands a $10 million payment from Rockstar Games and emphasises that this is his "last warning", although he has made several videos with the same claim before. This time, however, he claims that if Rockstar Games does not respond to his demands, he will "get that kid out of the psych ward" and together they will "hack your system again". He is referring to the teenager who hacked into Rockstar Games the year before last and published over 100 GB of data online.

In his desperate video, the Florida Joker explains that he can't go anywhere or even "eat pizza" without worrying about people coming up to him to ask for a photo. Despite the fact that he claims that this scandal is ruining his life, he goes to extreme lengths to look as much like the parody character from GTA 6 as possible, dying his hair and wearing prison clothes.

Given the fact that Rockstar Games does not play around with potential cyber threats, the Florida Joker is skating on very thin ice.
