The gaming industry is expected to be a multi-trillion-dollar enterprise in a few years’ time. With this much capital flowing into the business, we can expect many subsidiary departments to flourish as well. A prime example of this is the gaming skin market. We have seen the CS: GO market making quite the noise in recent times with its half-a-million per skin sales.

The gaming skin industry is currently marked as a $50 billion market, and a recent incident shared by a mother indicates the possibilities this new avenue can provide to youngsters.

A concept that boomed to success in the gaming business was the introduction of skins. This new idea has reaped companies’ profits to an extreme margin. Now, with each online-oriented game that releases, skins sure are a vital part of its system. It seems that a 16-year-old used this as an opportunity to reap profit at such a young age.

The more troubling thing for her to digest was that the laptop was a supposed delivery for her son, who is just 16 years old! This got her worried, and she started thinking about the most extreme situations.
