@flyinghorse101 Not sure if I'd call them cheaters, there's generally 2 genuine and 1 unreasonable reasons for creating these fake accounts:
Reasonable 1: We've had an influx of trolls within the Oceania region over the last few months as they believe the game is dead and so they feel they can do what they want. Unfortunately this has lead to platoons of trolls joining servers and targeting specific well known players and following them through the minimal server lists that we have, harassing them until the person quits the game.
Reasonable 2: There are some very competitive players who are trying to get top spot on the K/D leaderboard. After spending the past near 2 years developing skills on BFV they've created new accounts to try and make that 2 K/D average closer to the realistic 8+ K/D they've developed and 9/10 times these people are honest about their smurf accounts, as I said mos of us on Xbox in the Oceania region know each other.
Unreasonable 3: The trolls who keep making fake accounts in order to make surprise appearances on unsuspecting servers, they'll usually keep these acconts for no more than a week before making another
