Activision has released footage of its representative visiting a party affiliated with 'Call of Duty' cheat provider Elocarry in person to deliver a cease-and-desist demand.

The official 'Call of Duty' X account posted a roughly one-minute on-site video on the 28th (local time). Activision explained that it traveled to Ohio in the U.S. during the recent 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4' closed beta to take action against Elocarry. Kotaku reported the location of the visit as the residence of an Elocarry affiliate.

The video footage displays a timestamp of 9:50 AM on the 22nd. An Activision representative arrived by car, met a man whose face was blurred at the front porch of a home, and handed over documents. He explained that the paperwork was sent by attorneys for Activision and instructed the recipient to contact the law office listed on the documents.

While the representative in the video referred to the document as a "cease-and-desist order," Activision stated in its official post that it was a "cease-and-desist demand." A standard cease-and-desist letter is a notice demanding that the receiving party stop specific actions and informing them of potential further legal action if they fail to comply, differing in nature from an order issued by a court or administrative agency.

A screenshot of Elocarry's notice shared by Activision stated that sales and provision of 'Call of Duty'-related products would be temporarily suspended while conducting internal review and consultation. It added that Elocarry's products and services targeting other games remain unaffected.

Activision emphasized that this visit was not an isolated case. According to the company, it has so far disrupted over 375 cheat reselling activities, delivered more than 80 cease-and-desist demands, and shut down over 30 cheat sellers.

It added, "Further action, including litigation, will follow as necessary," stating that it stands ready to take legal action against cheat developers and sellers.
