Has anyone reported and have seen positive results?

My friend did that to 2 lvl30+ trainers and less than 24hrs later, they were gone. dunno whether coincidence or action by Niantic.

details are: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=81258546

there are ways to report spoofers, but it is really hard to identify one

- gps positioning sucks, often times i found myself rubber-banded from point A to point B doesn't mean i'm spoofing. i sense the accuracy is quite bad and least accurate, and often it tries to load stuffs in a very, very long duration which distrupts and lowers the game playability

- technology for cheating the game. other than apps like fly gps which can place you in your current moving location to anywhere you want. i dum think the dev can do much with those too

even yesterday while i was getting owned hard in dota while playing in cc, i did noticed the game was installed in each pc, and the kid next to me was playing it with keyboard and mouse.

- rubberbanding GPS location is normal... no worries. Its just a few meters or so...Its not bouncing u to Thailand and then to SIngapore and back to KL...

- Sppofing GPS is almost untrackable.. u can stay home.. then turn it on and be in KLCC and play there... as long as you dont make it too obvious u will be safe

- Installing the game on PC is fine... not everyone have mobile...

Couldn't agree more on your point of view, but still they against Niantic policy. Probably Niantic will see this at lowest priority, compared the current nastiest issue like bot-farming.

So far I havent heard anyone had trouble reporting. But I believe Niantic is just banning Spoofers.

actually Niantic doesnt condone third party app that run on top the original experience.
So there's always potential to get banned for using other apps to view IV.

But it's also posible that this guy travels a lot for work or leisure.

Recently I went to Perth for holidays and managed to catch a few Kangaskhan rclxms.gif
