The game "Sonic Gather Battle" has been exposed as a Trojan.
This Sonic fangame from Japan seems entertaining at first, but it hides some serious issues. If your browser searches for "SGB hacks" or you use cheat software, the game might crash and expose your IP address to the developer's servers. That means their system could potentially steal sensitive data like credit card details. To avoid problems, play it on a virtual machine without an internet connection—or block the game with a firewall.
