So I’ve created a channel “twitch-fraud-ban” on my discord. It’s a place for everyone affected by the recent twitch fraud ban wave. The goal is to create a channel for everyone to communicate and find a solution to our problem. You are more than welcome to join us (link in my bio)

So, my account is back online! Here’s exactly what I’ve done so far—it might help someone else. My account was banned on December 12th with the reason "fraud." After that, I opened a ticket. At that time, there wasn’t an option to open a ticket with the reason "fraud," so I chose the general reason "account login issues." This ticket was immediately met with an automated response, and my account remained suspended. On January 12th, I was able to open another ticket. Previously, I always received an error message stating that a ticket was already open. (I assume that tickets are automatically closed after 30 days.) In this ticket, I was able to select "fraud" as the reason. I also mentioned that we have a thread with almost 50,000 views. The response I received stated that my account is now back online. However, the reply in the email strongly resembles an automated response.

I am currently trying to establish contact through someone who is better connected. However, I was told that this might take until the new year. That's why I hope we can raise enough awareness here on X for someone to take notice of our cases.

Breaking news: A ton of people are stepping forward and demanding @Twitch to fix their ways after a huge wave of “fraud” bans hit tons of streamers last night, some as they were streaming! Some are screaming this could lead to the end of Twitch if they don't fix it!
