Hitting headshots is one of the most critical aspects of the gameplay in Free Fire. It enables the users to take down an enemy quickly, aiding them to get the win. However, it is not an easy task to master and requires a lot of practice as well as skill.

Sometimes users resort to unethical methods and utilize illicit applications and tools, one of which is the headshot hack. They should note that it is recommended to avoid all such things since they can get their Free Fire accounts banned.


Headshot hacks in Free Fire can lead to accounts getting banned

The Anti-Hack FAQ for Free Fire states clearly that using any unauthorized third-party program that Garena has not issued is considered cheating. This includes modifying the game client or playing in a modified game client that allows users to access functions that are not accessible in the official game.

It should be noted that headshot hacks fall into this category and are, in a way, cheating.

The developers have a zero-tolerance stance against all these, and those who indulge will be heavily punished. Here’s what they have precisely mentioned:

“Free Fire has a zero-tolerance policy against cheating. We will permanently ban their accounts used for cheating. Devices used for cheating will also be banned from playing Free Fire again using any other accounts.”

Downloading these tools from third-party websites could risk the users’ devices because they may contain malware. As a result, the data may become vulnerable.

Additionally, if readers find someone hacking, they are recommended to report them:

Conclusion

To sum it up, users need to avoid the usage of all such headshot hacks. Instead, they can improve their aim by incorporating the appropriate sensitivity settings and practicing in the Training Grounds.

Last year, Operation Cutcord was introduced by Garena to tackle the problem of hacking and cheating. Since then, millions of hackers have been banned by developers.

They regularly post about them on social media platforms, as shown above.
