Most definitely not.

HWID bans are for repeat offenders.

They are basically removing you as a potential customer who might spend any money in the game, so it's not something they do lightly.

Isn't INF back up though?
I got hit too but i´m not HWID banned.

I can play normally with a new and aged account. So i think i´m only flagged.

But i´ve not tryed to inject something.

You guys shouldn't be cheating on your mains at all.

Edit: But to answer the question - you wait out the 7-14 days and then...you should probably stop cheating on that account if you want to keep it.

To clarify I haven't used his account in the last month or more

Every new account is instantly shadowbanned after 1 game that is how I know that I've been HWID tagged.

So my question remains has Activision started to do IP bans
I used walls around May/June time and haven't been banned. I only used the cheats (Engine Owning) for around 3 days. Since then I've removed them from my computer, cleans the tracer files etc.

The quoted post has me worried. Will the ban wave eventually catch up with me?

Probably, if they've been detected or get detected you can get banned. I've read posts about bans on AA forums on how many people got banned on accounts that they have injected the AA cheat in like February (cheat got detected in April), so yes, they do delay bans I'm pretty sure. But for the most part, I think you should be fine, unless you used EO's Unlock all, then it's probably a wrap.

I got the unlock all by joining a random game, I made a ticket with activison and made them aware of it.

No. You'll be fine.

"Sorry to hear this has happened to you. As long as you don't do anything suspicious while playing you should be Ok even with the higher level. Now that said, do you have any visual evidence so I can send this case to a higher team? You can provide things as:

Visual images.
Videos.
Dates.
Activision ID names".

I didn't have any of the above, just said it happened instantly.

What would be the main parts to switch to remove the hwid ban? Motherboard and Ssd?

Expensive and waste because we don't know what they log.

Thanks for posting reply. Why even bother telling them though?

So if they do ban me, I've made a ticket previously that it was out of my control.
