Warzone bans 90,000 more accounts –

The Call of Duty Twitter account announced on Saturday that more than 90,000 accounts have been banned due to a wave of bans put in place over the past week.

Fraudsters remain a constant problem in Call of Duty: Warzone, as hackers find new ways to detect and punish them. Players are constantly complaining about the issue, and Warzone representative Raven Software has been working hard to meet the growing challenge of anti-fraud measures, and this series of ban waves is just the latest high-return effort.

Banning accounts is one of Raven Software’s simplest and easiest penalties to avoid. In many cases, scammers can simply create new accounts and maintain fake channels. In the past, Raven has also used hardware bans to target equipment IDs associated with a malicious account. It’s much harder, forcing players to buy new hardware or use software to hide their hardware identities.

It’s hard to objectively measure how many scammers are currently actively playing Warzone, but after years of struggling, it looks like Raven will never be able to completely eradicate the problem.
