Symfuhny’s Warzone cheating accusations resurface
He is currently unsure if Activision has banned him, or if someone has hacked his account. As of now, he has settled to play with another account. This might be a disaster for the 100 Thieves streamer if he indeed ends up losing his account.
Symfuhny rose to fame with Fortnite, which he had played professionally too. With the rise of Warzone based content among other creators, Symfuhny too joined the wave. Currently, he is one of the more prominent faces in the CoD battle royale.

A few months ago he had joked about how people must be reporting him inside Warzone.

Interestingly, many have accused him multiple times for using wallhacks and other exploits. The speculation surrounding this could start doing the rounds again if it turns out his account has indeed been banned. However, Activision has provided no official statement yet.
I know that you are not dumb bro you. What symfuhny is doing they call it baiting but I call it cheating. https://t.co/rckiQZp6F0 he locks on to people through walls. Ask yourself Why is he so good at warzone but he got shitted on by Non-pro players on cold war Alpha release.

The accusations had started after a June live stream. While streaming with fellow NRG players, Symfuhny had rushed into an enemy team and 1v3’d them with ease. While these are pretty common plays among talented players, one particular part had raised suspicions.
It looked as if Symfuhny’s crosshair had shifted almost instantly onto the cover behind which the players were hiding. While it could have been a mere coincidence, the internet jury had decided otherwise.

Moreover, his recent Warzone career has been smeared with accusations. There were several complaints which claimed Symfuhny was hacking in Warzone. Nonetheless, he never seemed to take this indirect hate seriously. Ironically enough he is now claiming his Activision account is missing. This can be the result of a huge number of reports against a single user.

He even posted a video titled ‘Official Response’ as a reply to all the accusations.

Activision will probably contact him soon about the issue. Until then, it seems like the prayers of many people who had pleaded that Symfuhny was cheating in Warzone have come true.
