"Grand Theft Auto" Online players are reporting that they received a hefty deposit of GTA$ 250,00 without any clue about the source of the in-game money. As if the mystery doesn't end in just a quarter million, some players are claiming that it happened to them on multiple occasions.

According to some players, they thought at first that "Grand Theft Auto" online has simply rewarded them with the GTA$ 250,000. After all, the amount coincides with the reward that developer Rockstar is giving whenever there are milestones like its Halloween event. However, the buzz started when "Grand Theft Auto" online continuously sent the amount randomly, even to those who previously claimed their rewards.

If players are happy with how "Grand Theft Auto" online deposits GTA$ 250,000, others are extra happy when they received the amount the second time. A lucky few have claimed that they even received the money thrice in a row. Apparently, there is no system on how these rewards are spawning.

There are several theories about why "Grand Theft Auto" online is shelling out some cash. GTA5Cheats suspects that an upcoming DLC is likely because it happened in the past that GTA prepped things with cash bonus.

Another likely explanation behind this mysterious "Grand Theft Auto" online phenomenon is that there is a glitch in the system. There might be some indexing issue where the server is getting toasted and confused with delivering cash. One potential proof about this possible GTA bug is the occurrence of repeated "donations" to some players.

The third, and probably the most far-fetched idea is that there might be a Rockstar employee who decided to take the role of Robin Hood. Who knows if there is somebody who decided to simply give away the cash to random players?
