Yesterday it was announced on the site Backpack.tf that a user there had bought what he thought was a Team Fortress 2 Australium Rocket Launcher but he instead received a scam item with the same picture from a new game called Abstractism. In addition to that, it was discovered that this game distributes a virus to your PC that the developers claim is not a virus and that the virus is likely a Crypto Miner. With the use of the item system coupled with crypto mining, we may have the replacement for the asset flip right here.
