Youtube Game Streamer Gets His GTAV Activation Key Stolen

Youtube Streamer MrBossFTW was getting ready to stream and play GTAV on the PC for him and a few of this friends to have fun and cause chaos in Los Santos. However, as MrBoss was getting ready to activate his game key - it turned out to be invalid and already in use.

Turns out what had happened was MrBoss started the stream as he was setting up the game, which also showed what his activation key was on two separate occasions on the stream itself.

Since he showed the activation key someone decided to copy down the code and use it for themselves to get a free copy of GTAV for PC.

Pretty sure MrBoss learned that if you're going to stream a PC game, to make sure it's properly installed and setup before you start a live stream. Although showing the setup process is nice, it does leave it open for theft if you carelessly flash your activation key for the whole world to see.

To you can see the extended version of the stream below. You can see the code at the 2:14 mark and the 10:37 mark. The 34:35 mark is where he tries to activate it.
