Banned by VAC on Siege
I don't know the reasoning behind me being banned.

I have not cheated on the game of rainbow six siege and would like to know what has happened.

I played it however did not cheat as I would be issued a game ban due to them using battleye.

I believe that this is a false ban and would like this looked into.

Vac bans are issued for known cheats being detected on the computer while the account was connected to a vac server. Using the cheat is not required to earn a ban.

Anything that tampers with protected game files is treated as a cheat regardless of it giving an advantage or not (skin changers, etc). Steam/Valve will not release any information about what was detected, that information will only help those that cheat and make cheats. VAC bans are delayed, what you were doing at the time of the ban being applied is unlikely to be what earned the ban

You are responsible for the security of the account and what is on the computer(s) the account uses. It does not matter who was using the account to cheat.

No one on the forums can remove nor investigate a ban. Only falsely applied VAC bans are removed automatically by the system at a later time.

1 VAC ban on record | Info
Multiple game bans on record | Info
1 day(s) since last ban

Don't cheat and won't get banned. It's that simple.

all VAC bans come from the detection of a known cheat, whether it is used on the account itself or some sort of sharing has occurred (account, library or phone number).

Users are responsible for the security of the account and all that happens on it

-----------------------------------------

The account also has a GAME ban

Game bans have nothing to do with VAC or this forum

Users are responsible for the security of the account and all that happens on it .
