Shadow Ban Question

Hi all, I'm hoping someone could clear up something for me as I don't really know how shadowbans work.

I haven't used any aimbot/wall cheating software on my PC, but last week I used a gun duping software (Rivera RUT) and now seem to be shadowbanned as of last night. This was used on a second account and I was only running Kilo with a Faze camo so that I don't draw attention to myself with a Damascus gun on a lower level account (Kilo being first gun unlock, and the camo being a paid one so don't require long game time to obtain).

My question is that as I am shadowbanned on this account and I wasn't using a spoofer of any kind, if I now log back into my main account will this also be shadowbanned? Or will I have to use a spoofer before using my main account again?

Bear in mind I haven't logged into my main account since using the duping tool.

Doesn’t matter if you’ve logged into the main account since using the tool or not. They use the history of HWID when taking action against an account. So, if you’ve been using your PC without a spoofer, your main will also be logged.

Typically though, as long as it’s a shadow ban, secondary accounts won’t also become shadowed unless the first shadow is from a permanent ban.

So as my main account is clean and my second is just a shadowban which hasn't stemmed from a permaban, you think I should be alright? Should I just leave my main account alone for a bit, or run a spoofer with the game from now on?

Running a spoofer is pointless since you've used your actual HWID on both accounts already. The damage is done, so to speak. A spoofer would only apply to new accounts or accounts that you have not logged into on your active PC.

Your main should be fine, but if you want to play it safe, you could wait 7-14 days entirely before playing.
I'm confident your main is fine though as you have not received a permanent ban.

Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it

Did you ever get unbanned?
