Pokemon Go New Ban Wave Targets Legit Players?

Update: This Pokemon Go player was among the first legit players who got their account suspended. They contacted support and here is the reply.

Ban Appeal Notice: They didn’t provide any details why this person’s account has been suspended for 30 days.

Previous Story: Trainers, Niantic and Pokemon Go released a new ban wave, but this time it looks like they made a big mistake. Why, you may ask. Well, many legit players reported getting banned for 30 days.

A new ban wave has been sent by Pokemon Go and Niantic, which is good. It would’ve been better if they kept the legit players aside and banned those who use 3rd party apps. Well, many legit accounts now have a 30-day ban, and many of these banned legit accounts have been playing since day 1.

PokeAK is the first to report on Twitter. The Tweet reached many people, legit players who also got the 30-day ban as well. Here are some of the comments.

Niantic and Pokemon Go are silent, but we expect to see an announcement/explanation soon. There must be a reason behind this, hopefully, some bug, so everyone can go back and enjoy Pokemon Go once again.
