Valorant Wrongfully Permanently Banned My Account (Van 152 - HWID Ban Issue)

I have been an active Valorant player since 2021, and on April 14, 2025, my account was permanently banned without any valid reason, even though I hadn’t played any matches that day. Around 3:00 AM, I simply logged in to check my shop offers and immediately encountered a Van 152 error. The next morning, I found that my account had been fully locked and permanently banned.

My main account is Radiant ranked and contains around ₺30,000 worth of skins and content. Upon investigating, I discovered that a separate account — one I had previously lent to a friend — was used by them for cheating. Although the cheat was activated on that separate account, Valorant's anti-cheat system wrongly penalized my hardware (HWID) and, as a result, my main account was banned when I logged in from the same device.

Important Note:
My main account was banned solely because my hardware was flagged due to a different account’s violation, not because I ever used any unauthorized programs on my main account.

Despite submitting multiple support tickets, all I received were generic, automated replies without any thorough review or clear explanation. I am urgently requesting a full manual investigation by Riot Games into my hardware ban and the circumstances surrounding it. I expect real communication with an actual support specialist, not automated messages.

After investing four years of dedication and a significant amount of money into this account, it is completely unacceptable to lose everything over a system error. I am ready to provide every necessary piece of evidence transparently. I strongly urge Riot Games to treat this issue with the seriousness it deserves and conduct a proper investigation.

I didn't get any response, they didn't get back to me, my account suffered. You have no conscience, my rights are not forgiven, let whoever wants hear it.

There has still been no response in any way, my tickets are being closed automatically. My efforts and my wallet have suffered financial loss :)
