I've seen a lot of you comment asking questions about "if you're safe or not". So I am going to answer that for you. If you bought FNAF 2 on the Google Playstore or App Store, you are safe. The virus is ONLY for phones, nothing else. I hope this helps, make sure to subscribe if you LOVE FNAF!❤ Edit: Oh yeah, the funny inflatable furry man also known as Pyrocynical reacted to this on his slop channel, I guess we couldn't escape... L chat
Scary, when i was like 7-10 years old i downloaded all the fnaf games on Aptoide for me to play. I never beat any of them though, one of them probably had a stingray virus on it without me knowing (i dont have that phone anymore so ill never know)
Also theres more viruses on aptoide like Sotarmaf (a creepy version of the mobile game Solar Smash that has a virus in it) dagetry (a cursed version of Geometry Dash, its a data stealer and includes malware) KAOTIC (a virus version of City Smash) Fnac 3 (a fake mobile version of Five Nights At Candys 3 that appears completely normal but when you open it its actually a virus) DO NOT RESEARCH ANY OF THESE IF YOU ARE EASILY SCARED for some reason, when you look these names up a bunch of disturbing horror gore videos pop up, especially when you look up dagetry. Seriously i looked up dagetry on youtube and tiktok and i dont think ill be able to sleep tonight after watching a bunch of those videos
Hey bro just wanna let you know, it's real. I've downloaded it recently. The jumpscares is a hoax, and it's just a fake APK with arabic text for the name. It used elite, something many virus apks used around 2014-2015
Hey. The Russian segment has a bit more information on the virus. It’s kinda complicated. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xRCk7GW-0oI.htmlsi=K17X8MZOPSs2vb8I
If any game asks for access to your; Messages, System settings, Gallery, Camera, Microphone (unless camera and microphone are actually used in the game), Call history etc. DO NOT GIVE IT! File access is a little tricky. As games have become a lot bigger in storage size they cant contain everything in a single APK and require storing their files elsewhere. Thats why all big games request and need file access. Still do be careful about giving access to any app that isnt downloaded from Google Play Store. And if literally ANY APP asks for ADMINISTRATOR PRIVILIAGES DELETE THAT SHIT IMMEDEATLY. Its 100% GUARANTEED to be a virus literally NO APP requires Administrator level access do NOT trust those apps.
0:07 Keep in mind that this isn’t the actual game’s app banner. This one was made by a Brazilian for his video, one that brought the game to popularity. Probably the actual banner was the Fnaf 2 normal banner.
problem is these apks/programs were in third party installers, not reliable app stores, in which case he can’t really do anything, as these installers don’t have any quality reviewing to begin with
Hello, I am from the Hispanic community, we discovered 1 month ago that the image of the chica was false since the supposed gameplay is stolen and the image of the withered chica is taken from ucn but the probability that there is another image does not rule out but that It wasn't that and the supposed virus link was only the app icon and when you opened it the screen went black and when you uninstalled it an image appeared that said "pay or get hacked" something like that
@@Amero2005In the jumpscare of the Withered chica from the UCN, in one frame her head goes to the left and from there they took the jumpscare of the supposed FNAF with virus
@@Tha_jass the image is just slightly moved, but I can tell, I memorized that Withered Chica render from my childhood (I was one of those kids who photoshoped animatronics in 2017) it's the one of the Office with lower light, the one of the ucn it's totally different
Yeah, it's a mix of Urban Legend, Mandela Effect and Real Facts. The Stingray App definitively existed, as a version of it was found, and I remember downloading Aptoide back in 2015, and seeing the Stingray app. But the gameplay with the Chica Jumpscare is kinda weird, and it's probably a Mandela Effect. Just like the Half Gray Freddy icon.
@@muhammad52688 That's new for me. I know that FNaF 2 Stingray app had the Elite virus, and that another game, I think it was Angry Birds Transformers, got a version with the Elite virus as well, but Minecraft? That's new.
0:37 Im an Arabic native speaker. And that Arabic text doesn't mean "is watching". The arabic meaning of "is watching" is "يشاهدنا". I searched up the word since I didn't know what it meant and all I could find was that is might be the name of an american man named "Man Ray" translated to Arabic.
Hey! A Brazillian speaking here. And I have a lot of informations. A version of the Stingray App was found recently. Some data from the apk file says that it is from 2014. But... None of that weird Chica jumpscare, or even gameplay happend. The game just closes itself and your phone gets screwed. But... I have some memories about Aptoide, and I want to share some of that. I remeber that I downloaded Aptoide in 2015, when a cousin of mine wanted to play Minecraft with me. He suggested using Aptoide, as every app was free there. I entered the FNaF community around that time as well, and I remember downloading FNaF 1 to 4 in Aptoide. Not just that, but I tried a lot of versions of every game, just to find the originals. And I have a clear image in my head of me seeing FNaF 2 Stingray and some Arabic stuff in Aptoide. But... The problem is that... My memories about it ends there. I don't remember if I downloaded it or not. Probably not, because I didn't lose that cell phone until like... 2 years later. So, I'm going to say that I didn't downloaded it. But, as I said I don't remeber if I downloaded it or not. If I did... Why nothing happend to me? I got a different version? I mean, I would not have any problems with my data being stolen that time, as I didn't had anything important there. I only used that phone to gaming, and I was a Child. I don't remember anything about a Chica jumpscare at the end as well, so... Did I got the wrong app? Did I downloaded the real FNaF 2 before trying Stingray? Was I so bad at the game to not finish it? Am I stupid? I don't know anymore. My experience with the Stingray ends there. I don't remember anything else. But, I have other stuff to say. I know that the Stingray popularity came from the Spanish FNaF community. So, there has been speculation about the Chica Jumpscare in the end not being Chica. "Chica" in Spanish is "Girl", so, a lot of people say that the jumpscare was a Ghostly Girl with no eyes instead of Withered Chica, and the Chica jumpscare was just a miss interpretation of the translation to English. But, I don't know if I believe it. There is a Girl here in Brazil that said that she remembers downloading the Game in her Mom's phone when she was a kid, and that Withered Chica jumpscared her, and she remember having nightmares with her. She also remembers that her Mom was really mad about she ruining her phone. And this all is followed with one of the biggest Mandela Effect in the world. I remember the Freddy turning Gray image in Aptoide. But, I know that this image is fake. The Brazilian guy who brought the mistery back from it's 2014 tomb to our audience is the one who did that Icon. And he did it just because he wanted something more intresting for his Thumbnail. But... It's so weird, I remember seing it in Aptoide. Also, that Withered Chica Jumpscare is not her 2017 UCN jumpscare. It's just a horrible edit. A still image of Withered Chica. And if you look closer, you can kinda see that it looks like a Unwithered Chica, as her arm looks fixed. In the end, FNaF 2 Stingray was real. But the Mandela Effect is messing with our heads, and we can't trust anyone anymore. The ammout of Information is so low that we can't have a clear image until the original apk is found. And that has a low potential of happening.
Actually, I am an Egyptian not an Arab but ive grown up speaking Arabic, "Manray" is said in arabic script and that means nothing in any arabic script language Edit: I researched further about it, It is actually Kurdish, Specifically Sorani
When I was a child I always pirated games using apks, especially from aptoide, and i remember most games in there not wanting to uninstall at all. I don’t have the tablet or any account related to it anymore, but now that I watch this video I just realized how oblivious I was
me casually being 1st place for most of the game with 17,827,582 gold in gold quest: 🙂🙂🙂😁🙂😁😀😀🙂 me after someone swaps and im in 15th place: 😤😤😤😤😤👹👺👹👺👺👹👹👺👹😡🤬👹👺👹👺
I downloaded an apk of fnaf 1 (forgot the website name where i downloaded the game) and as I started night 2, all three animatronics on stage disappeared. I uninstalled it immediately and later on found this app with a plain white icon with no name. It was difficult to uninstall but I later on got rid of it after doing a quick research online and finding users with the same problem
@@acesidney it'll probably either steal your credit card info or eat up your device's resources to mine crypto. Most viruses nowadays are made purely to get money through shady means rather than to scare people or destroy your device for no reason
Really good video! Keep it up! I wanted to make a clearer picture about whole history of stingray. Firstly, yes its a virus that when downloaded from aptoide ( or sites that copied aptoide ) would harm your phone. Now stingray had its phases/versions that didn't hack immediately, but really waited for permissions to be set from the user ( that way I saved my friends phone ). Then in other fazes just upon installing it would wipe all your data, spam sms ( in some examples, which varied from person to person ) and harm even OS it self. There was fnaf 3 stingray too ( jumpscare was springtrap with deformed face which is actually in video 5:03), which as much as I remember was from original guy and fnaf 4 which someone recreated ( so it wasn't the same person ). So yea it is real, there is still some versions on the internet ( don't download them pls ). And there is a lot more, not only for fnaf games but for other games too.( Super Mario 64 is one example which has older types and newer ones ) Thanks for reading and see you in next comment! Poy :}
I am making one except It doesn't have a virus, I even released a trailer =) (I took down the trailer cuz It didn't look good but I am still working on da game) Edit: my phone broke so I can't do this, gonna buy a new phone. Edit 2: PHONE GOT FIXED, CURRENTLY COOKING
Its forgotten media and the website that he shows doesnt even show up anymore so this may be now fake since there was no information abt this on reddit or sum js that its lost media and not even able to download it
Heeey people weell as an arabic person i just want to say that ma boi Gavin Goniwicha is dummmmmy and don't know any thing about arabic because 0:36 ( مانراى ) do not mean "is watching " because it is not even an arabic word butt heey if we turn the ( ن ) to ( ج ) it will be ( ما جراى ) what's mean " what happened " so it might be what ma boi Stingray means butt he just miss clicked on the keyboard oh one last thing i love your FNAF content Gavin so keep it up👍
When i was younger I played a free version of fnaf 1 on a website but i didnt get hacked it was similar to the og game but when the characters would twitch at the corners it would freeze
now this is how to make FNAF scary, real threat coupled with creepy, unnerving imagery that isn't supposed to be there. really interesting video on a topic i didn't know about
For people who don’t know: Fnaf 2 on a APK app was Fnaf stingray and it isn’t not a normal Fnaf game. When you install it, You have to let them allow your files, then you could play. People say it’s a virus. At first you start at Night 5. When you beat the level, you get a weird scream, and chica shows up and, You can’t turn your phone back on because their was in your information and files. if you try to delete it it hacks you or obeys you.
FNAF 2 Stingray feels like Analogue Horror and Digital Horror combined, but without the VHS type stuff, as everything is digitally stored on built in solid stage storage, considering that's what your phone or tablet has.
Tbh, the ransomware would be pretty rare to get (if it is real) since it is mainly only said to be on aptoide, but idk, maybe other people have probably made other versions of it
i used aptoide before to download FNaF world on my crappy tablet and i don’t remember ever seeing the stingray virus but that doesnt really mean its fake
Everything about this virus seems so real and accurate to the time. I was using aptoide around 2016/2017 and there were sketchy downloads that looked like this. The photoshopped app icon, arabic text, multiple file permission requests.. All those are so accurate to aptoide standards.. I remember it really was tricky to find correct versions of apps on there and I really do remember some of them requiring many app permissions. All I gotta say is, if this is real , I was so lucky for not stumbling upon it
My friend from school Tristan in 2017 said something like that with fnaf 3 but on night 3 after beating it, his game crashed in his phone reset and the next day after school, he showed me his phone, and how everything got deleted even though the day before it was fine kind of creepy now thinking about it also I think someone should test the APK files on a burner phone and get a video
Now, aside from stingray, in general if you were to download them on sketchy websites would destroy your phone too. So even if stingray isn't real, then surely malware would do the trick.
@@TerryIsCoolIGuess Yeah, but it's lost media, so It doesn't exist anymore... Well, Brazilians found a version of Stingray, but it doesn't have any gameplay.
Im sure i once downloaded fnaf 2 from a sketchy website and the game would act weird at some occasions but i would never end up beating the game so i might have been safe
The real FNAF 2 Stingray Virus has no gameplay at all, it is just a blank application that wipes your phone. That is basically what the Elite Virus is. Although maybe there is variants of the virus, some apps with the elite virus would have this “Obey or Be Hacked” screen pop up. So maybe the one with a jumpscare is a variant that is rare or even lost media. I tested many that I have found through blue stacks
what you mean steam unlocked thats all fake only the og steam has real games the creator of steam [valve] is an big company they would not have any virus"s by the way half-life portal COUNTER-STRIKE left4dead alien swarm cs:s csgo cs2 sounds familiar right? ALL BY VALVE!
@@mjaypierce9549 scammed?? steam UNBLOCKED is a pirated site, while steam is a other thing. they may have the same name but they’re nowhere near same..
head cannon. Withered chica pull her eyes out and then chase Jeremy. Also sorry for threatening to strike your video about top 10 gaming, I has hacked by top 10 gaming.
I call a creepypasta on this, because I played all of the FNAF games for the first time by downloading them from aptoide a couple of years ago, on multiple devices. Nothing happened to either of them, nor to my data
Yeah, the same thing happend to me. I downloaded FNaF 1 to 4 back in 2015 from aptoide, and tested a bunch of versions of them, just to find the original. And I remember seeing the Stingray FNaF 2 app. But, I probably didn't opened it, so, I never gave the Adimin permissions that the App asks for. Probably I had found the Original FNaF 2 before, and then deleted every other version.
The jumpscare just creeps me out. It's not the Withered Chica thing, though. It's the sound effects and the creepy music box... It's just disturbing, but in a weird way.
FNaF 2 Stingray is Lost Media. Well, at least for now. A version of the App was found some time ago, but It's probably a recreation, as the icon is the edited Freddy icon.
FNAF ransomware should basically be that after you launch the game, it will lock all your files and request that you buy an actual copy from the app store instead of some stupid bitcoin thing.
@GavinGoniwicha The thing about the of the 2014 stongray was that it was a fake fnaf 2 leak on the play store and AppStore and it was 0.99 cents but when you would open it you would get a black screen and your data would be sold
I downloaded this game on my old phone one time and needless to say I was traumatized. How you got Apotoide was you go on your android web browser. So I downloaded it and came across this game that was in the video but thing is that what he showed isn’t what happened at the end of the game. Instead some man said be careful we’re watching. I was very scared and for the next week I noticed a black car parked near my house for about an hour and it was always at different times the car could have been nothing but idk it all seemed a little too cloese
I had some pirated devices on my tablet, For example, FNAF 2, I was at the 4th night... You might have saved my info. Also I deleted all the pirated games I had. THANKS!
Yeah, you didn't downloaded the FNaF 2 Stingray App in your tablet. Stingray FNaF 2 can't be deleted after you intall it, as the app asks for Admin permissions.
