Users should refrain from downloading PUBG Mobile Lite mods and other third-party tools under any circumstances, as these will lead to bans sooner or later.

Moreover, players should not download PUBG Mobile Lite from third-party sources as usage of unofficial and cracked game clients has been stated as one of the reasons for the suspension of the accounts.

Hence, users should use Google Play Store to download PUBG Mobile Lite. They can otherwise utilize the APK file present on the game's official website as well.

Apart from this, several other factors can also result in permanent suspensions of accounts. The developers have clearly outlined a few of the most common violations in the official support section of the website:

  • Usage of cheating tools in PUBG Mobile Lite
  • Use of plug-in/auxiliary program
  • Change of client file data illegitimately
  • Teaming up during matches multiple times

Thus, gamers should refrain from the actions mentioned above if they wish to keep their accounts safe.

One crucial thing for them to understand is that even if the violation occurred after their account was hacked or was not under their control, the penalty will stand and be applied appropriately, irrespective of access.
