Installing cheats seems phishy

[GreekPapa]

Hi,

I contacted a seller of aimbots etc and the procedure of installing these cheats seems relly fishy.
Can someone tell me the normal steps of installing cheats?
Should I edit bios and tamper protection etc?

Thanks

All things mentioned are pretty typical, every cheat functions differently but for the majority, antivirus settings will need to be tweaked or turned off.

If you do not trust a product then do not run it on your PC, go with providers who have a good reputation and trust in the community.

If you want to know if a provider is trustworthy you can simply name them in a thread and ask.

Every cheat is shady if you think about it. Its a blackmarket scene for software that isn't socially accepted. You can typically tell who is a "trust" worthy provider by their past and what they hide but even then you can never really know for certain.

Yes and no. I think you're right in some aspects such as "trust", its unlikely such a large userbase cheat would ruin their reputation but that doesn't mean it has never happened in the past.

Just because its the most used cheat does not mean its 'trustworthy'. Just because they have a decent reputation does not mean they have shady things inside of their cheat. Take AIMWARE for example, one of the biggest, if not THE biggest CS provider. They had hundreds of thousands of users; but they still do very phishy stuff such as logging all your Steam accounts, hardware, directories, full names, etc.. Its debatable whether or not those are fishy but the fact of the matter is they were never open about this.

People only ever found out when the AIMWARE database got leaked that AIMWARE was collecting so much info on their users. The same goes for any other provider, we will never know for sure unless their DB gets leaked or if an ex developer of said project comes forward. Compare that to when IWEBZ got leaked back in 2015, the impact it had on people was no where near as bad since they never really logged peoples info/accs, etc.. Another example would be Fatality, their cheat only ever got exposed as a RAT and spy product because someone backdoored the dev and leaked their source code.

The best step to take for any cheat is create a second Windows boot and use Bitlocker to encrypt your drivers as well as disconnecting your drives so they don't even show up on Windows. This is the most secure approach and you won't really have issues worrying about using even the most trusted providers then.

Can confirm this is the case for most cheats. Although make sure your provider is trust worthy.

Cheat software providers frequently advise users to turn off antivirus programs and security features because these cheats act similarly to malware. They need unrestricted system access, which entails disabling security measures or altering kernel-level processes to facilitate functions like memory injection or manipulation.

From a technical standpoint, cheats are categorized as malware due to their actions, which include bypassing security protocols and potentially leveraging system vulnerabilities. Even if these cheats do not engage in overtly harmful activities, like data theft, their fundamental techniques are intrusive and correspond with malware definitions.

Then don’t, i usually run cheat soft ware on a different pc solely dedicated to that purpose, no bank info or similar on that pc, also no antivirus, aside from that i have tryed a lot of providers none of them with shady rep and never had issues

I see, thank you everyone!
Your info helped me a lot, so I probably should prepare my PC for doing this,
Also, I am glad that @s responded here, it was one of the cheats I was thinking.
Does anyone know if SyntheticSkills offers any discounts at the moment or offers a cheaper fee for countries with lower wages? $ $35 is a bit high.
Also, a good question is: How do you completely remove a cheat? (I haven't installed or downloaded any yet, but I wish to know.)

Can shoot me a DM ill hook you up with a discount code to try us out.

Generally speaking with most modern cheats, restarting your pc clears it from memory.

So as long as they aren't doing something suspicious, delete the loader and restart the PC.

If you want to be safe for something like a PC check, fresh install windows afterward as well.
