While most of these gamers are very loyal to the rules of a game, a number of them have been caught using unethical means during a match.

Here is a list of four gamers who were caught cheating live and were subsequently banned from specific platforms.

This Twitch streamer was engrossed in playing the Search and Destroy matches in COD: Modern Warfare when his viewers caught him using wallhacks. This hack allowed him to see the outline of his opponents through the wall. Unsurprisingly, Twitch permanently banned his account soon after.

#2 Semper0311 (Destiny 2)

Like Twisted Bear, this player was also caught using wallhacks during a game. When his viewers confronted him about it, he categorically denied the allegations before being banned. However, he was lucky to have gotten away with only a game ban and not a permanent ban on his account.

#3 FaZe Jarvis (Fortnite)

FaZe Jarvis has been permanently banned from playing Fortnite. The 17-year-old player used aimbots to kill targets with a perfect headshot. He tried to trick Fortnite’s system but was caught cheating in a YouTube video.

Even though he can open a different account, this ban by Epic Games will restrict him from competing in tournaments or uploading any type of Fortnite videos on any gaming platform.

#4 MOBADOS (Apex Legends)
