I Bought an “Unlimited” HWID Spoofer – Neither the Ban Was Lifted, Nor Did the Product Work – Now They Say I Have to Buy It Again!
I Bought an “Unlimited” HWID Spoofer – Neither the Ban Was Lifted, Nor Did the Product Work – Now They Say I Have to Buy It Again!
Today, I want to share my experience with the HWIDPlus spoofer and raise public awareness so that others don’t fall into the same trap.
I had been hardware banned on Valorant for a while. I came across an HWID spoofer advertised with claims like “removes ban in 5 minutes” and “unlimited usage,” so I purchased it. I installed the product, reinstalled the game multiple times, updated the BIOS, changed countless system settings… Nothing worked. Eventually, I followed their FAQ advice and formatted my system. But surprise: the software now claims it’s being used on a different computer. Even worse, Riot still detects my actual PC and the ban remains — Riot recognizes it, but HWIDPlus doesn’t?
It took 13 hours to get a response from their support. They claimed I had “reset” the system, not formatted it, and that due to abuse by others, they can no longer provide a license in such cases. But I’m just a regular user — how am I supposed to know the technical difference between a reset and a format? Also, I bought the product just a day earlier, with no ill intent whatsoever. That should’ve been obvious.
Support told me, “If you buy it again, we’ll help you.” Yes, you heard that right. I have to repurchase the product that never worked in the first place. The so-called “unlimited” product isn’t actually unlimited. The ban-lifting product doesn’t lift any bans. And their support just blames the user for everything.
This is outright deception and falls under false advertising. If the software doesn't work after a reset, that should’ve been clearly stated. Also, twisting the definition of “unlimited” so easily is an insult to consumers’ intelligence.
I lost my time, my money, and my patience in this process. Now, I’m pursuing a refund and will take this up with my bank and the Consumer Arbitration Committee if necessary.
Be cautious when buying such software. Don’t fall for flashy promises — trust real user experiences. I hope this post helps prevent others from falling into the same trap.
