Dont they temp bạn accounts with spoofed pokemons? I bought a bunch of accounts on ebay when i first started, they had pokemon from san fran to paris. All of these accounts are banned now and my personal accounts are fine. That's I will would never spoof or bot, don't want to risk all the time I spent already.
They were botted accounts.
Spoofing without rooted Android was not stable. It would lose the GPS location and teleport you back and forth from home IP address (San Francisco) to your spoofed location (New York). Within 5 seconds, you were in New York then came back to San Francisco then went to New York again then you're back in San Francisco, and now you're soft banned (temporary ban where all pokemons run away and cannot spin pokestops). I think this happens on the iPhone too. Now, if you get flagged with too many soft bans, they will give u a final warning which is the red text screen (final warning).
Code
My method: Let's say I'm on your PTC account. You're from Canada. I am going to wait a few days after you stop playing before spoofing to Japan with VPN. After spending a X days to catch whatever pokemons, I will stop playing for a few days before spoofing to a new country. By doing this, it makes me look legit as if I were really traveling from one country to another. I am also playing on a phone so my max time period is around 30-45 minutes before my phone starts to get hot then I stop playing to let it cool down. I take breaks in between unlike bots where they can play for 1+ hours without overheating.
