Grand Theft Auto V is an open-world, action-adventure game revered for its storyline and gameplay. It was developed by Rockstar Games and was released on September 17, 2013, making it almost a decade old, but it is still far from being pronounced ‘dead’ or ‘obsolete’. Many fans enjoy the game even today and are enthusiastically waiting for the next addition to the Grand Theft Auto series.
One of the most famous features of the game is being able to play it both online and offline allowing it to cater to a larger audience. GTA V is also famed for its plethora of cars that the player can choose from. In-game currency can be used to purchase said cars and can also be sold to other players.
Recently, players have found a way to duplicate cars they have purchased and sell them to other players in the online version of the game granting them the ability to make a great in-game profit. This raises a question though; can you get banned for duplicating cars in GTA V? In this blog we have set out to answer that question for our fellow gamers.

Do Dupes Get You Banned?
Rockstar has placed measures against duplicating cars in GTA V, but that does not mean that you cannot get detected for it.
There are two types of dupes or duplicates in GTA V:
Clean Dupes – Duplicated vehicles that have their custom plates randomly generated at the time of duplication.
Dirty Dupes – Duplicated vehicles that have the same plate as one of the other vehicles in the player’s possession.
Now, to answer your question, no, you do not get banned for duplicating vehicles. Although you do not get banned for duping cars in GTA V, you can get banned for selling duplicated vehicles depending on which dupe you sell.
