NEver snipe in this account, but i try ti 3 days ago just to catch a Dragonite. Well now i got banned. SO yeah dont snipe lol
7 days ago I "traveled" to Hong Kong with a level 33-account to get candies for Tyranitar... I'm tired of waiting to find 1 Larvitar per week in my city... I didn't use the account for 1 day, the 2nd day I started to collect candies with Fake-GPS programs. 3-4 days later I already collected about 200 candies always catching in the same area (only in Hong Kong, the big island). None problem for now. When I'll collect enough for 2 Tyranitar and some extra candies I will come back to my city. Then I guess its better to let to rest the account for 1-2 days...
Did you mask your IP to be Hong Kong IP? If not, I doubt you would get away with it. Last year during the Japan Lapras event, many spoofers got banned because they did not use proxy/VPN to mask their true IPs.
You need to hide real IP if your bot location is too far away from your internet connection's physical location.
