PSN User Permanently Banned For Claiming His Dad Works for Sony
If there is one thing Sony cannot abide, it is claiming to have affiliation with Sony when that simply isn’t true. As reported by SegementNext, when one PSN user claimed his “dad works at Sony,” he received a stern email from Sony explaining that making such claims is against the PlayStation Network code of conduct. PSN user Hamad Jalalie was playing Fortnite when he received an angry message from another player accusing him of hacking. After some back and forth and the second player threatening to report Jalalie directly to Epic, Jalalie sent the fated message that would get him banned.
“bahahahahaha my dad works at Sony he will get u banned.” Not only is this a dumb and childish threat to make, but it goes against Sony’s code of conduct. Jalalie received a message shortly after this interaction explaining that pretending to be able to be or to be able to influence employees of Sony or any partners is not allowed and grounds for a permanent ban.
