Surprise Surprise who is at the top of the leader board. The MSE user who hacked into RAC's game and won 2 PS4's last time by writing in his own score which wasn't even achievable on the game.

I don't know how this happens, but surely they're breaking the T&Cs

The use of automated devices or any other mechanism that will circumvent the proper conduct of this Contest, whether intentional or otherwise, is prohibited.

So can be legitimately disqualified?

They don't care Granny.... Simple as that. RAC absolute refuted all claims that any one was cheating last time and even lied about what scores were achievable on the game until I started cheating to prove them wrong. In the end they cancelled the competition but still awarded the prizes to the people who cheated. Well I will be doing the same with these comps every time I see certain names at the top.

Just so you know. I have messaged VAX letting them know about the cheating. Told them who I KNOW is cheating on there and let them know I did the same to get into the Top 20 and could easily get number one spot on the board at this moment in time if I wanted too. Hopefully they will do something about it. But knowing these companies they would probably just disqualify me and not worry about any one else who's cheating lol.

That's shameful. Based on this info I for one won't be entering. Although I don't usually enter FB game top score comps as I never get anywhere close.

Have posted on their FB page too

Well done Snizza for your stance.

Vax messaged me back today....
