JAKARTA - PUBG Mobile releases anti-cheating reports every week to assure players that they are taking firm action against those who cheat.

Reported by Antara, Sunday, April 4, in one week, from March 26 to April 1, the game has suspended 1.6 million accounts that were suspected of being fraudulent.

About 68 percent of these accounts were captured using hacking auto-aim and x-ray vision, according to a Tencent report, quoted from the Dot Esports page, Sunday.

Twelve percent used cheat engine speed hacks, while 10 percent modified their area damage and character models. About 10 percent of accounts are blocked for other reasons.

Tencent also revealed fraudulent accounts at the bronze level as much as 35 percent, 11 percent silver, nine percent gold, 11 percent platinum, 13 percent diamond, 12 percent crown, eight percent Ace and one percent conqueror.

Although PUBG Mobile has a built-in hack detection system, some fraudulent account owners can bypass this. Other players can report the hackers for justice.

This report is evaluated individually by Tencent. The report button appears on the screen after the match result appears. Clicking the button will display a window listing the various reasons for the report.

Players who report can also write reports manually in the box provided. If the reported player ends up being blocked, the reporter will receive a notification.
