Did you ever receive a message like: "Due to the tribunal of blah blah blah, and your recent behavior blah blah blah, your account will be supended after this game." Well those messages are fake, and I have been sent many of those messages. You can easily check by using /r . and the name of the "criminal" will be shown there". I just wrote this so you can be calm and check before making any assumptions. Thanks for your attention and I hope I was able to help you out :)

Jesus the first time I got one of those was after a game I had with a garbage jinx who was blaming me for losing lane, I was very respectful towards her but in the end she went crazy and tried baiting me into swearing. In the end game screen I asked her why she was being such a %%%% to me and she just said "tsk tsk tsk, swearing isn't allowed so enjoy being reported <3 :)". The next game was when I got that message and knowing what other people get punished for I got spooked hard. Legit thought that rito misunderstood the situation and was gonna ban me for calling someone a %%%% once.

This has been an issue on and off, and it looks like people have been using this to send prank messages to friends and/or scare enemies. One thing that is constant is that impersonating a Rioter/Riot Games is against the Terms of Use and a punishable offense. If you see someone using this "exploit", you should tell them politely to stop and that it's against the rules, and if the behavior is malicious or continues, report them to Riot Games Player Support in a ticket:

When i got this message i typed /r stfu , but the guy who send me the message wasn't one who give up that easily, so he continued "with the reason of harrasing riot games employee,your account, and the future created accounts will be permanently suspended after this game", this made my day :D

Reminds me of the time we could make our messages look like riot text to others in game. You know how people burn flash and all the other important cooldowns when they see the enemy team surrender? Friends could send messages looking exactly like that surrender text.

I know it already but the first time I saw it, I thought I would be perma banned. It tilted me and I ended up losing my ranked match.

I got this message one time, saying I would get permanent suspension after the game.

I was 50/50 thinking this was bullsht, and my concerns vanished when I was able to queue for another game

The first time I got one was DURING MY RANKED PROMOs.

Luckily I knew to type /r

Wait thats still going around. I just laughed at it since it mentioned the tribunal.
