Banned with no reasoning or proof?!?

I received an email earlier today stating I had been banned for "MMR Boosting". Never have I shared my account with anyone or even my significant other whom I live with. This is entirely out of the blue. I thought maybe it was because I had about a 2-3 week period where I was able to play and actually focus myself on leveling through ranked because I had available time to do so, but that was just me focusing on getting to my goal. I also thought maybe it was because now that the season is over, I've been playing with more co-workers who are a much higher rank then I (Plat/Diamond) which would by associate resulting in my MMR to be raised.

So of course, I submitted a ticket, but all I got was the generic "Copy/Paste" Response that everyone else seems to be getting. And the chat system is down, so I'm unable to get this resolved tonight, which is rather irritation because I was just about to start my weekend and I had time off so I would have been able to play quite a few games this weekend.

So all I am asking is for the proof (which I know is none) that I boosted my account. Because If I got banned, my significant other would have been banned too since most of our games are played together. But he didn't get banned, which is more proof that the system is flawed. And I know I'm not the only one that is getting unjustly banned today.

You placed in Bronze 4, climbed slowly (after a short decline) to Bronze 2, then over the course of a month climbed to Gold 3, and then just stood there. Around that same time of the huge increase in ability, you started playing champions you never or rarely played before, and for those that you had played before you were immensely better somehow. You then stopped playing ranked altogether, and only played normals/ARAMs for the rest of the season. Minus one ranked game you played after it looks like the boosting was over, but in that game you suddenly did much worse than would be expected for someone who suddenly climbed to Gold 3.

Riot has access to much more data than we can examine in match history and their data very likely confirms that it was not you playing the games during the time frame of your immense jump in skill. Keep in mind Riot does not issue this type of punishment unless data confirms that you violated the rules. That being said, if you still want to claim this was in error, you can request a review by contacting Riot Support.
