What is a HWID spoofer? Hardware IDs vs account bans

Will buying a spoofer restore my banned account and purchased skins?

Buying a spoofer does not reverse a game publisher’s account sanction. The spoofers listed by XDAY concern PC hardware identifiers. Restoring the original account or its purchased items is a separate decision made by the publisher.

XDAY provides sales information for PC products. This article summarizes official guidance and practical checks. It is not a record of an individual sanction decision or a new product test.

Separate the account, device and connection

“Unban” can describe different outcomes. Identify what is restricted before choosing a support route.

A change to a PC does not cancel an account notice. A connection error alone does not establish a hardware ban.

What product descriptions can and cannot tell you

PERM V1 and PERM V2 have different listed features and requirements. Check the target game, supported Windows environment, preparation, and plan limits on the actual product page.

• Product information can describe advertised functions, usage counts, time limits and requirements.
• A purchase cannot promise the publisher will reverse a sanction, restore the original account or return skins and balances.

“Permanent” and “Lifetime” plan names are not promises of permanent safety or future undetectability. Check what the term applies to.

Complete the free official checks first

• VALORANT: compare the full message with Riot’s error-code list and your sanction notice. The current list warns about outdated entries and incorrectly displayed codes.
• Apex: check EA Penalty History, then follow EA’s account restrictions and appeals guide.
• Fortnite: check your notice and eligibility through Epic’s sanctions and appeals guide.

Another person’s error or a test on another PC cannot replace your own notice. Record missing information as unknown rather than treating it as proof of a hardware restriction.

Keep a short record of the symptom

1. Game and affected account.
2. Exact message and full code, including VAL or VAN.
3. When it first appeared, time zone and repeat conditions.
4. Publisher notices, restriction scope and duration.
5. Official steps already tried and what changed.

Hide account identifiers and email addresses in public screenshots. If official troubleshooting resolves the issue, you do not need a spoofer for that issue.

When PC product research is still relevant

If you separately need to investigate an identifier-related PC product, compare the game and environment with the listing. XDAY’s VALORANT-related listing is PERM V1; its Apex/Fortnite-related listing is PERM V2.

This is a route to requirements and prices, not a finding that a product will resolve your particular restriction. Keep account appeals and product compatibility questions separate.
