Banned for "hacking"

I have been banned for "hacking/cheating"

I have never installed or used hacks or cheats on my computer or on the game. I first found out about the ban after months of not playing the game. I tried reaching out but they labeled my case as "not fixable". I'm still very confused because, again, I HAVE NEVER HACKED OR CHEATED. This sucks more because I had wraith's kunai on the account and countless hours on it. How can I get my account unbanned?

  • @ilovedanlol theyre having some kind of issue with fake hack bans rn and so far nobody has been unbanned. All you can do is keep disputing your case and I wish you luck with that.

    but their policy is very much guilty until proven innocent and its really hard to prove yourself innocent.

    A lot of genuinely innocent players have been thrown under the bus because EA puts you in charge of your own security and blame a possible 3rd party hack on you. Even though there seems to have been an influx of false hacker bans around the steam launch...but thats somehow our fault.

  • @ilovedanlolvery funny
    Noone from staff ban other for nothing. Believe me they can check your
    programs running in the background even macros in mouse for bunny hop 🙂

  • @Saxhleeel True, i guess EA could be able to ignore those problems only if they force us to use double verification, even when u didnt cheat if your friend or family uses ur pc and installs cheats you cant do nothing about it, meanwhile we need to keep trying, it s hard to think that a cheater will waste money in his account knowing he can lost that

    @systemchanged Thats another thing im confused about. Im the only person who uses my pc, and ive used the same password (ish, I had to make small variations over time) for 12 years and ive never been hacked on anything else, I suspect it probably was through a 3rd party site I used when I was like 15 but...that really shouldnt be something a player gets the blame for. 

    I get how sus that sounds too...but at this point I dont really have anything but my word that I dont cheat and a report of suspicious activity thats probably come too late. 

    But like you said, why would we spend money if we were planning to hack and knew there was a danger of getting banned. The whole things just been distressing its been a month and I just wanna give up honestly. 

  • I feel that, I had countless hours on this game and have been trying to fix this for months. I gave up and made a new account. 

  • @ilovedanlol Why would you do that? if they don't give me my account, I'm not playing this game anymore. I wasted more than $300 I played 2000 hours. I never made a single smurf, I have been playing since the beginning, never miss a single event, they can check all the things I am saying. If for them is more important not having a cheater than losing their clients, that s a signal I don't need to support anything like that. I understand they can said that I cheated, used another computer or changed my HWID and my public IP but I'm not asking to keep unbanning my account, I have learnt I changed my password and set my double verification, if I get banned again, I'm done, not matter what s the true.
