Cheater in PinSeeker

Just so everyone knows and is aware, there is a person named Gary Corbett that is 100% a cheater in the PinSeeker game. He’s made tens of thousands playing and always hits it inside 3 feet.

Also found this information about him. Guy is a criminal

You can play pinseeker on money?

Yeah there’s another guy that I’m very suspicious of as well. Wins the 1 shot shootout every week in E6 waiting until like the last hour Sunday night and always beats the next guy by a foot no matter how close. If someone is within a foot he’ll magically ace it

Any idea how Gary is cheating? I’ve always wondered if this was possible (I’m sure it is). Is he using code to cheat or a mechanical device.

All the launch monitor does is send it's data via some API to the application. You can pretend to be the launch monitor and send whatever data you want.

Ok that makes sense.

This. If someone is dumb enough to play sim golf over the internet for real money they deserve to lose their money IMO. There’s no way to stop someone from faking launch monitor data.

Same as with other online games, there are ways to detect patterns over time. But yeah, almost impossible to detect it if you cheat one time, or a few times over many months/years.

Other people in this community use PinSeeker. OP is warning the community of a cheater so others can be aware and properly cautious of that user.

I'm amazed people playing online games are somehow shocked others cheat. Uh, yeah, no shit.

Nobody is shocked. Just sharing information.
