Banned for third-party programs despite never using any – has anyone else experienced this?
Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone here has experienced something similar or has some advice.
A little while ago, my League of Legends account was permanently banned for allegedly using third-party programs. The problem is that I’ve genuinely never used any cheats, scripts, bots, overlays that modify gameplay, or any other third-party software to gain an advantage.
I submitted a support ticket to Riot explaining this, but they upheld the ban.
Riot has also closed the case.
It won’t be up for review any further through normal support.
I’m honestly at a loss because I’ve put a lot of time and money into this account, and I have no idea what could have triggered the detection.
Has anyone else been falsely flagged for third-party programs? If so:
● Were you ever able to get your account back?
● Did Riot eventually acknowledge it was a false positive?
● Is there anything else I can do now that my ticket has been closed?
I’m not here to argue with anyone or make excuses—I just genuinely want to understand what happened and whether anyone has been in the same situation.
Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
