If you are following Valorant’s competitive esports community, you might be familiar with the Anti-Cheat Police Department.<\/p>\n

Anti-Cheat Police Department (anticheatPD) is a group of enthusiasts from the community who “specialize in gathering intelligence on cheats, in order to interrupt their business or break their cheats.”<\/p>\n

It’s a community-driven organisation that wants to take things in their own hands instead of simply waiting for developers to react when someone is cheating.<\/p>\n

To put it simply, they are something like modern-day vigilantes, but instead of fighting crime on the streets, they are working online to fight the cheaters and those who are making cheats.<\/p>\n

This organisation is not related to any game specifically, but during the last couple of months, they have focused mostly on Riot Games’ new tactical shooter, Valorant.<\/p>\n

The man behind this organisation goes by the name GamerDoc, but his real name is Mohamed Al-Sharifi.<\/p>\n

This 24-year-old resides in London now, but his story is a remarkable one, fleeing from a “war-torn” country to seeking asylum in the United Kingdom, and in his own words issues with homelessness.<\/p>\n

“I am grateful to have been given a second chance in life; it was like almost four months ago; I almost went homeless again,” GamerDoc explains in his TwitLonger<\/a>. “Coming from the darkest era of my life where almost nothing mattered to me, I was pretty set on failure, even wanted to stop living.”<\/p>\n

He was haunting for cheaters driven by his passion and now his passion will turn into an opportunity of a lifetime. .<\/p>\n
