The Angry Planes and No Clip script mods for GTA 5 (opens in new tab) were secretly harboring some truly nasty malware. Uninstall them ASAP if you already grabbed the offending mods, and check this forum thread (opens in new tab) for how to remove their keylogger cargo.
You should definitely change your passwords, too: if you typed them in at any point after activating Angry Planes or No Clip, there’s no telling who may have them by now.

Its lighthearted appeal fooled us, too – we apologize for including Angry Planes in our best GTA 5 PC mods (opens in new tab) round-up. As much fun as it is to drop weird new stuff from the internet into a well-established game, this is a sad reminder that you always have to be vigilant about who and what you trust with your computer.
