Spoofers or cheaters in Pokemon Go will now face permanent banning after Niantic confirmed it through their new Submit an Appeal form in FAQ section.
It’s stated below that location spoofing and using emulators or third party APIs are covered as violations under their TOC. This only means that Niantic is serious in trimming down the cheaters in Pokemon Go game as well as to the unauthorized 3rd party apps that affect server reliability.
Your account was permanently terminated for violations of the Pokémon GO Terms of Service.
“Your account was permanently terminated for violations of the Pokémon GO Terms of Service. This includes, but is not limited to: falsifying your location, using emulators, modified or unofficial software and/or accessing Pokémon GO clients or backends in an unauthorized manner including through the use of third-party software.”
As of this moment, there’s only one way to report spoofers in the game and that’s thru submitting a report in their FAQ section. Reporters will just need to take a screenshot(s) of the alleged cheaters and fill in some information before submitting.
