Destiny 2 Cheat Seller LaviCheats is Hit by $6.7m Lawsuit from Bungie
In a new (and very expected) turn of events, another cheat provider has been hit by Bungie's legal team in an effort to protect Destiny 2 and its integrity and playerbase. This time, it's a cheat seller known as LaviCheats, an entity that offers cheating technologies that are supposed to be undetectable. As of currently, LaviCheats offers cheats for games such as Elden Ring, Call of Duty, Overwatch, and Rainbow Six Siege, among others.
Bungie's lawsuit states that the company is currently seeking a total of $6.7 Million USD from LaviCheats. This translates to at least $2,000 for each of the 2,790 cheat software downloads that have been provided by LaviCheats through their website. The document (provided by Destiny Bulletin) states that the award that Bungie is seeking would have been larger as it is likely that the number of downloads could be underinclusive.
