Niantic soft-banning Pokemon GO cheaters

GN Version 5.0

For Pokemon GO players using GPS spoofing and modified versions of the game, you could be in for a soft ban from Niantic. If the developer catches you cheating, you'll be given a soft ban that stops you from catching and battling Pokemon, as well as visiting Pokestops. This ban only lasts for a few hours, and then your activity can return to normal. No word on whether Niantic is going to start dishing out stronger bans.
