Last month, an anonymized Rainbow Six: Siege cheat maker told the BBC "if Ubisoft decides to come after you for copyright infringement, you're in for a tough time." It seems that hacker is now facing such a tough time, thanks to a federal lawsuit filed by Ubisoft against him and associates involved with MizuSoft.
The lawsuit (thanks, TorrentFreak), filed in the Central District of California, accuses an underage Dutch hacker by the handle J.V.L. of being the "driving force" behind MizuSoft's only product, "Budget Edition Rainbow Six: Siege Cheat." It also accuses his mother, Sandra Rijken, of "collecting, processing, and transmitting" the proceeds of that cheat software's sales through her own company, Simply San Web Design.
Most of the other defendants, accused of assisting with the development and sale of the cheat engine, are only identified in the lawsuit by their Discord handles. Ubisoft said it hopes to "amend this complaint to state their true names and capacities once said defendants’ identities and capacities are ascertained."
