vac banned for spotify mod?

so im form India where spotify doesnt work so i downloaded a hacked version of it, when i tried to enter into the servers it banned me :(

VAC bans are issued for identifiable cheats. I doubt Spotify would be considered such by the system.

VAC is an automated system designed to detect cheats. If a user connects to a VAC-Secured server from a computer with identifiable cheats installed, the VAC system will ban the user from playing that game on VAC-Secured servers in the future.

VAC bans are permanent, non-negotiable, and cannot be removed by Steam Support.

is there anything i can do to get my account back or should i just stop playing CS:GO? :/

There is nothing you can actively do to have the ban removed, no. In the unlikely event of a false ban being issued, it is removed automatically.

You can clean your system from the malware you downloaded and buy the game on a new account.
