Payday: The Heist is getting a ton of attention recently due to the sale, and new content they have added. But, with that, the Nebula Servers – Payday Severs are also giving out strange issues to the players in the game.
One of those issues is that players are getting labeled as cheaters, which is something quite problematic in the game, as no one likes to play with a cheater player.
Here in this guide, we are going to discuss why Payday is giving out a Cheater Label on the title even if the player is not a cheater, and how to remove this Cheater Label.
Why is Payday Showing Cheater On Name?
Payday, at the moment, is having a breakdown, as players are getting in trouble with the game not starting, and then there are some who have the Cheater Mark showing in their IDs.
Even if you are not cheating, this symbol will be showing off on the screen, and other players will avoid you probably because of this. Below, we have a method to help you fix that.
How to Remove Cheater Label in Payday?
First of all, you need to make sure that the game isn’t from Epic Launcher. Because, the Epic Store is having an issue at the moment where players are getting cheater labels on their IDs, and it will be fixed in a while.
But, in case you are on Steam, and this issue persists, you will have to follow the steps below.
Remove Mods and Extra 3rd Party Software
If you have any mods in the game, you will probably have to remove those altogether. Then, you also have to check back on the 3rd party software that is running in the background.
Sometimes the Nebula Server will target the players with strange unknown apps running in the background, fragging them with Cheater Label.
So, you should remove all of these things, perform a restart, and come back to the game, playing a few matches.

So, you can uninstall the game through Steam by right-clicking and then uninstalling. Take a few extra steps and reinstall Steam as well.
Check your system for potential viruses and disable the Antivirus afterward.
