An NFT minter on the new GameStop NFT marketplace has been caught selling versions of HTML 5 games which he did not make and had no permission to sell, according to an in-depth report.
The report (via Ars Technica) states that the Nifty Arcade collection provides “interactive NFTs” that are fully playable from a crypto wallet, or the GameStop marketplace itself, but that these games have been minted and offered for sale without permission from their creators.
The tens of thousands of dollars earned prior to the Nifty Arcade profile’s suspension from the platform are still in the hands of the man behind the account, and whilst the NFTs are no longer listed on the marketplace for sale, the games can still be accessed on GameStop’s servers and “may now be functionally impossible to remove,” the report said.
