PUBG Mobile is definitely not a favourite among the Indian mobile gaming market. In a recent event, a theft in connection with the game has surfaced in Jalandhar. A 15-year-old boy reportedly stole Rs 50,000 from his father's account to purchase PUBG skins and gaming accessories.

As per the details, the boy stole the amount to purchase a gaming pad for mobile along with some other PUBG Mobile skins. His father, a bike mechanic, found the amount debited from his account and assuming it to be a theft, he reported it to the police.
