Free Fire Hacker Report Guide: How to Ban Cheaters

Last Updated: May 12, 2026 ✍️ Written by Rajat Kumar Account & Security

Look, we have all been there. You are camping the final safe zone in ranked mode. You are playing it super safe behind a gloo wall. Suddenly—BOOM!

A player using unfair advantages glitches straight through your cover. They land an impossible headshot from across the map. It completely ruins the competitive integrity of the game.

Here's the deal: Garena just upgraded their anti-cheat system big time. If you know how to use the report system correctly, you can help get these players banned. Let's look at the best ways to report cheaters and the latest anti-cheat updates.

Latest Anti-Cheat Updates & Ban Waves

Have you been following the recent anti-cheat updates? You probably saw the massive ban wave Garena just executed. Millions of accounts have been wiped out recently.

Their new Vanguard AI Anti-Cheat doesn't even wait for reports anymore. It scans gameplay live.

Based on the latest updates, the server instantly detects:

Auto-aim scripts running in the background.
Wallhack mods and ESP antennas.
Speed glitches and teleportation.

Heads up. If you queue up with a hacker to push Grandmaster, Garena will punish you too. Your rank gets reset or you get a 30-day suspension. It is not worth the risk.

How to Use the In-Game Report System

Wondering how to report a cheater right on the spot? The fastest way is the built-in tool. Do this while the match is still active.

Step 1: Spectate the Cheater

Got eliminated by a hacker? Do not exit to the lobby. Hit that Spectate button. Watch them play for 30 seconds. The server logs their weird crosshair snaps, giving you solid proof.

Step 2: Send the Report

Look at the bottom-right of your screen. Tap the red Siren Icon. A menu pops up. Choose the cheat you saw (like "Auto Aim"). Hit submit. Your free fire hacker report goes directly to the security team.

How to Ban a Cheater via Garena Zendesk Support

Sometimes the in-game report fails. This happens if the guy is running heavy VIP anti-ban scripts. To force a permanent device ban, you have to escalate it.

Turn on screen recording. Get their cheating on video. Then go to the Official Garena Zendesk Support site. Create a "Hacker Report" ticket, paste their exact UID, and upload the video clip.

Never used Zendesk? Or maybe a hacker stole your own ID? Read our Free Fire ID Unban Guide. We explain the whole ticket process there.

Warning: Avoid Modded APKs

Many players search online for ways to gain unfair advantages by downloading shady APKs. Let's be real: downloading any unauthorized third-party application is extremely dangerous for your device and account security.

If you try to use any third-party mods, you are just giving your phone's data to scammers. Vanguard detects the injection instantly. Your UID gets banned permanently, and your phone's IMEI gets blacklisted. You will never play on that device again. Always play fair and grind legitimately.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens when you report a hacker in Free Fire?

When you report a Free Fire hacker player, the anti-cheat system immediately flags their 10-digit UID for review. If they are found using a modified APK or scripts, their account and device (IMEI) get permanently banned.

Can my ID get banned for playing with a hacker?

Yes, absolutely! Garena's new policy punishes players who intentionally push rank with hackers. Your account can receive a temporary ban, a rank reset, or a permanent ban for repeated offenses.
