Hey guys, I just received my first perma ban for using RUT (an unlock tool) on Warzone I have a few questions but for anyone interested I'm going to tell you how it happened since I think it's pretty weird.

HOW IT HAPPENED:
I was playing like usual (40 ms ping average) but then I started noticing that my lobbies were full of military level users having mastery camos unlocked and swapped to guns that are not supposed to have them, so I went to the ban appeal website on my phone and saw I was under revision, I just closed the game and started watching twitch. The guy I was watching, which also used an unlock tool, said that he just had got shadow-banned too, so I went to the website again and realized my shadow-ban had turned into a perma ban in under one hour. I've never heard of anything like this happening, so I went to the twitch chat and told this guy to close the game and open it up again, and the same happened to him. I had never ever been shadow-banned before in over a year of using RUT.

QUESTIONS:
I followed a YouTube video on how to manually spoof your HWID and followed the steps until I tried to use DMIedit to change serials, it turns out I got this error "d8 - Updating DMI data failed" which I understand means that my motherboard is not compatible and cannot proceed with changing serials. I anyway created a new account and logged into battle net, after 2 matches it got shadow-banned (I got 20+ kills since the lobbies were really, really bot lobbies, swag level bot lobbies, so I don't know if that might have triggered the shadow-ban). My questions are:

1). Does the shadow-ban mean that my attempt to manually change HWID failed?
2). Am I HWID banned?
3) After they lift the shadow-ban (if they do) can I use an unlock tool again? (I will totally not start from scratch on a new account and unlock everything and grind those 70 levels for vanguard weapons)
4). Do I need to buy a spoofer? If yes, isn't there any alternative to buying one?
5). Is there an affordable permanent spoofer or a cheap non-permanent one? I neither can nor want to spend 30+ bucks monthly on a free video game. I know of the AC diamond permanent spoofer, but it has 0 reviews and is 330 bucks which, to me, is absolute madness
6). What unlock tool provider do you recommend? I had been using RUT for over a year, and it was good, but more often than not I find myself not liking the support, neither from the reseller nor from the dev himself. They always blame the user (even if they only used THEIR unlock tool, like myself) for getting banned, saying they don't know what else the user was using. I really do believe their unlock tool is one of the safest if not the safest out there, but guess what, detections happen, and you can't blame the user for that. Plus, their unlock tool is account linked which means that I would need to spend 40$ every time my account gets banned, and I know there are unlock tools HWID linked which allow using on more than one account, but I don't know if I could go a year without getting banned like I did with RUT

I think that covers all my questions, but if I come up with something else, I'll ask here. I'm sorry for this long ass post, but I wanted to make sure that I could explain in a detailed way possible. I hope that someone actually reads and answers to this lol. Thanks in advance

yes your attempt to change your hwid failed
hwid bans = permanent bans
your shadow will be removed, but no you cannot use an unlock on that account nor cheat.
yes, you need a spoofer, yes, there is an alternative, you failed in doing the alternative so your choice is a spoofer.
permanent spoofers are garbage, so try one and see if it works.
there's a lot of unlock tools... leaf (recent detection), rut (recent detection), blackflag, artificialaiming, etc.

I got Banner this weekend, for reasons I don't understand, in WarZone + Modern Warfare and finally Vanguard. Made two appels and both were rejected. I am ****** off and Acitivison does not give me a chance to make proper appeal.

Regardless. I have already pre-ordered MW2 on the account (main Battle.net account with a lot of games). How is MW2 and WarZone2 affected by these bans. I am really at a loss.

What a joke.

1. Appeal -> ban for all current titles.
2. Contact support -> ban confirmed
3. Download of my personal data (Applicant Privacy Policy)
4. Contact to the support -> ban confirmed
5. Today -> All bans lifted without comment (manually checked on the appeal site)

Hwid flagged ?

Hi I’d appreciate if anyone could help me out with this. Pretty much I’ve received two shadow bans, been using PO. But my sb’s always lift and never turn perma. I’ve resetted my pc and when ever I launch wz and play a game ( new account with proper phone # ) or even my sb’d acc that got lifted. I’d receive another sb, BUT NEVER TURNS PERMA !! it’s like a endless loop of sb’s, with no permas for the past 2 weeks, nearly 3. If anyone has experience this and knows what to do please message me or reply here and let me know ! Heard there’s hwid bans and hwid flags, I’m supposedly ‘ flagged ‘ but I’m clueless. Appreciate any help, thank you.

The idea that a shadowban is temporary is bullshit. At least, maybe temporary for some people.

I was shadowbanned 2 years ago. And now, if I create a new account and start playing, I am still shadowbanned.

Warzone HWID (on an alienware laptop🥲)

Hello guys,
I got an alienware laptop a few months ago and decided to try out an unlock tool, it didnt go well and i got hwid banned. I stopped playing cod may due to the ban + i didnt wonna keep paying for a spoofer, now my friends came back to cod and i wonna play again . I just dont know what to do many ppl have been saying there are cleaners that permanently remove hwid bans. Id love that because im probably never going to use any type of cheat again. The only issue is everyones telling me it’s impossible to remove hwid bans from alienware laptops (alienware m17 r2) . I was also looking for a spoofer i just dont know with which to go to , id love to go for ACD but its just overpriced my other options i got reccomended are ghostaim , phantom overlay, cobalt and EO. Would appreciate your guys help. Mainly want to remove hwid ban permanently and never cheat.

You can either wait this out yourself, or you can purchase a spoofer to play with until it (shadowban) expires.

If you don’t go with the spoofer route, I highly recommend reinstalling windows as new to clear out any tracers, before cheating again.
I have shadows only 6 weeks after cheat detection got my first perm

All my accounts shadow, (do not perm) it lifts but I can't reverify. I got a Talkatone number

I made a freshie it shadows, when that.lifts I can reverify it and they will finally lift my hwid ban fully??

I don't wanna use my main or expensive alts until I get this sorted
Spoofing works and there's 0 traces I only shadow on my real hwid

Ok bro if ur hwid banned just buy ghost aim cheat it's a good deal includes spoof. Ga spoof and po spoof are best deals

If ur not hwid only use po or Mobius zero detections we will all be dead by the time they detect those

Don't touch eo with ten foot pole that is most detectedncheat.

Acd is a rage cheat only use it to semi rage and if ur hwid banned it's basically x22 it hits P. GA SPOOF+ ACD if hwid (ga cheat cheap good alternative but it doesn't even have no recoil wow )

Mobius +po if ur not hwid

Hey guys need some help here… So I was shadow banned last Tuesday night.. I have been playing on this account lidgit probably for about 4-5months no unlock tool no esp no nothing! I used an unlock tool on this account when I first registed the account just 1 time, the cheat was never detected I then deleted the tool after its 1 time use. Anyway I played lidgit for the entire rest of the time I’ve had the account, I jumped into plunder after watching a jgod video on changing graphics settings which I did and wanted to see the difference in plunder, I killed 12 people and then half way through boom I was disconnected from the server and was shadow banned. Since then I tried making other accounts which after playing 1 game receive a shadow ban also… my main account is still shadow banned, am I just HWID flagged or am I HWID banned? I’m confused none of my accounts have been banned. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks guys

The unlock tool is a great tool, but so banishable... In general, you can use the unlock tool on an account that you don't want to use, because whatever happens, especially at the moment, it is detected very quickly by Ricochet.
In general, an SB of this style ends with an HWID ban.
From now on, you must either use a spoofer and create a new account to play, or change two or three components of your computer + two or three other manipulations, and start playing normally on a new account...
