As per a report by Screen Rant, it makes a huge difference if the device is banned and not the account. This is because players can be banned forever from playing with the device they were caught cheating with whereas account bans can be worked around by simply creating a new one. PUBG Mobile has a dedicated anti-cheating division that continuously monitors players that have been reported for using unfair means. A ban from PUBG can last for 10 years.
