Activision tracked down EloCarry, one of the most notorious Call of Duty cheat makers, at his home in Ohio and served him a cease and desist order on camera. The publisher then posted the video to the official Call of Duty X account alongside a warning aimed at the broader cheat-selling community: "Build cheats. Sell cheats. We will find you."

The details:

  • The video shows a legal representative arriving at EloCarry's front door and handing over the papers. The exchange is brief and civil, with EloCarry asking "What's that?" when told what the documents were. He has since "temporarily paused sales" of Call of Duty cheats while he "reviews a matter internally," according to a screenshot Activision posted from EloCarry's Discord.
  • EloCarry is not a CoD-specific operation; the cheat maker also sells exploits for Rust and Apex Legends. The cease and desist is part of a broader Activision push that has seen 80 such letters served, 375 reseller operations disrupted, and 30 vendors shut down entirely.
  • Activision tied the announcement to the ongoing Modern Warfare 4 beta, saying that during last weekend's closed test, "infection rates were lower, hardware bans were harder to evade and our time to action improved." The second MW4 beta weekend is currently live and open to all players, including a campaign mission and a Warzone mode.
