Hi

What do i do if i suspect someone of cheating, im not a 100% sure but something looks fishy. Though i dont want to accuse anyone if im not to sure. I had this person in my F5 team and i know how they score, but ever since they left their weekly race score is through the roof.

    @greddycandy Hi and welcome, You could be right regarding the cheating but could also just be a glitch in the game or it may be these have just had the levels restored on there device.

    As for doing anything you can report to customer support but it is unlikely much can be done if it is through cheating as some people will always try to find a way to do this, but eventually there game will get messed up.

    Thank you

    Hi and Welcome to our Community

    It’s very frustrating when people do not play by the rules and cheat their way to success, and we’re sorry that you have been affected by this.

    Rest assured that King does not condone this behavior in our games. Our games teams are always working on improving our games and finding ways to stop cheating.

    At the moment it is not possible to remove this player from your team

  • Hello and welcome, the reason for this is they are playing offline and then reconnect when they think the race is over or it's impossible for them to be passed. Hence they pop up from nowhere with these scores. Although it is not a fair way of playing there is nothing that can be done to prevent this.

    Re: cheating

    This is what I mean these scores 1st place & 2nd place. 3rd place is an average score. This is the second week of such high scores. If such scores are possible in one week then fine, that's that. But if they are cheating and the rightful winners are not getting there rewards, then that's not right.

    Thanks I hope the snapshot helps.

    P.s. 1st place is an average scorer...I use to bring in more points when we were together in F5 team.
