Are you allowed to pay someone else to play your champs games?

I dont know if this is true but I heard its against TOS to have someone else play your champs games.

My friend has been speaking to someone about it who says he does it but I have advised against it. 

Can someone please confirm this so I can press this more its not a good idea, he is an 10-13 win player but wants the 15 wins this weekend.

    Hey xoWoolley​,

    No, you are not allowed to have other people access your account to play for you. Additionally, the account owner is responsible for all activity on the account.

    In this situation if your friend theoretically provided access to someone else and that individual cheated or otherwise broke our User Agreement, your friend would be held responsible for the activity that took place on that account.

    The only person accessing an account should be the registered owner. We do not support sharing accounts. Feel free to let us know through the EA Help report form here if there are any situations you'd like to bring to our attention. Hope this helps clarify for your friend.

    Could you please look at the message I have sent you? I thought as much but again would be ideal if you could engage in the message I have sent you

    So what you're saying is that the people playing the champs games are fine to still do it? Cause surely if you have confirmation that someone is openly breaking TOS and User agreement are both not in the wrong? Or do you only punish those using the service because some people who you may know need to earn a bit of extra cash on the side?

    That's not at all what I've said. No one should have access to your account except you, period.

    Violations of our User Agreement would result in account action being taken in cases where that's able to be verified, and you can report that with the link provided earlier. A chat message through another platform would not be sufficient verification, but you're welcome to report that as additional evidence to see if the team's able to verify the actual activity taking place.

    Yeah your link is for a simple report, what if I have evidence and someone admitting they do that? Like im giving you full blown evidence enough to investigate or can you dont do that?

    I would report it to your privately rather than out someone but if you're happy for me to just throw up screenshots on here and you will no doubt just do nothing about it then please tell me otherwise.

    You could also reply to the message I have sent you like a normal adult and I can know its being dealt with properly?

    You can provide links to any screenshots or evidence in the reporting link I've provided and mentioned earlier, and the team that investigates will take a look to see what can be verified.

    This is not something we can address via the forums or via DM, you'll need to use the available option linked above, thanks.
