I got banned for no reason!

I went to play league after months of not playing the game and once I tried to log in the client said that I have been permabanned for using a unauthorized third party software. I don't know what software it could have been. All I do is play league with a few friends and have never used any program to cheat or anything like that. Pretty bummed out I just wanted to get back and start grinding league but for no reason I am now permabanned. To repeat what I said earlier I have literally not logged on in months so have no idea why the ban has happened. Anyone else having a similar scenario. Is there anything to do to get unbanned?

Well, first off, you'll want to check your match history and see if there's a discrepancy between that and your own playtimes. It's probable that someone hacked into your account and used third party software - resulting in the ban.

If that's the case, you'll want to send in a Support Ticket, explaining to Riot Support as calmly and concisely as possible that your account was broken into. The rest will pretty much play out after that point, so just work with the Support Agent, and keep your fingers crossed.

This also happened to me, except my last game was 2 days ago. I just checked my match history and there were two games in ranked played yesterday that were not me. So definitely check your match history.

The thing with me is that my password wasn't changed, so that means my log in creditials somehow were acquired by this foreign user. Which means that once/if I can get back in, I'll probably have to cleanse a few emails/passwords on several accounts just in case, unless the fault ends up being on Riot's side for my log in being used maliciously (which I'll probably still cleanse just to be safe).
