Stuck with a persistent hardware ban in Call of Duty or a recurring Warzone shadowban? Activision's Ricochet Anti-Cheat can associate new accounts with the same machine by checking hardware fingerprints and leftover system traces. Our Call of Duty HWID Spoofer provides a professional-grade masking and cleaning workflow for Ricochet-protected titles without requiring new PC components.
What Is an HWID Ban in Call of Duty?
An HWID ban (Hardware ID ban) is a restriction that goes beyond your Activision account. Instead of only banning a username, Ricochet can read identifiers from your drive, motherboard, CPU, MAC address, GPU, and monitor. When you create a new account, those identifiers can be compared against flagged profiles and push the account into a ban or shadowban queue. This is why simply making a new account often does not solve the problem.
How Ricochet Detects Banned Hardware in COD
Ricochet can query hardware information through Windows device managers and low-level APIs. It may collect identifiers such as disk serial numbers, SMBIOS data (motherboard model, BIOS vendor, serial), MAC addresses, GPU device IDs, and monitor EDID data. These values can be hashed and compared against server-side records. Ricochet-related telemetry, tokens, and cached session data may also link a fresh account back to a flagged machine.
How Our HWID Spoofer Bypasses Ricochet
Unlike basic spoofers that only modify visible Windows registry keys, our software uses a deeper masking workflow for hardware queries and trace cleanup. When Call of Duty or Ricochet checks hardware identifiers, the spoofer provides protected, virtualized values instead of exposing the flagged fingerprint. No BIOS flashing, firmware editing, or hardware replacement is required.
Ricochet Trace Cleaning & Shadowban Fix
Bypassing an HWID ban isn't just about changing your hardware identifiers - it's about cleaning the digital breadcrumbs that Ricochet leaves behind. The anti-cheat stores telemetry data, cached authentication tokens, registry artifacts, and hidden system files that can link a brand-new account to your previously banned hardware. Even with spoofed serials, these leftover traces can trigger an instant shadowban - placing you into restricted matchmaking with other flagged players. Our spoofer includes an integrated Ricochet Trace Cleaner that wipes all of these digital fingerprints before spoofing, ensuring your new account starts on a completely clean slate.
Full Compatibility & Zero Performance Impact
Our spoofer is engineered for high-performance gaming with zero FPS loss and no disruptive background workflow during gameplay. It supports modern Intel and AMD processors, major motherboard brands, and Windows 10 and Windows 11 (x64). It is designed for Call of Duty titles across Steam and Battle.net, including Warzone, Modern Warfare, and Black Ops entries. Subscription time is protected during maintenance periods.
