He was just killing opponents left and right using the auto-aim in the cheat engine and claiming on his stream that he was using a disposable account because he can get banned from using it on his real account.

Epic games banned him from every account everywhere. He was so banned that whatever account he creates to play Fortnite, gets banned.

MissQGemini

The originator of the popular “Clara” meme, MissQGemini, was caught live streaming CS: GO with wall hacks on. Wall hacks allow players to see players on the other side of walls in CS maps. Making it very easy for the player to kill them.
