How to get unbanned (VAC/TAC) (Only for store bought copies)

[Gratin]

Step 1. Get all of the original packaging and the receipt
Step 2. Return to original retailer, and claim the code was defective.
Step 3. Get Replacement
Step 4. Go home create a new steam account use code, and NEVER cheat again unless you know what the fuck your doing.
Step 5. ???
Step 6. Profit

Lesson of the Day: DONT CHEAT WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT YOUR DOING. Also, always buy a physical version with a code from a retail vendor, who gives a shit if you gotta pay like 5 dollars in taxes.
If you bought from steam, unless your a l33th4x0r, your screwed.

If you got it from g2play and paid with paypal start a dispute and you should have money back.

Worked for me at gamestop. On the receipt it says they will replace defective products within 30 days. Just point to that.
