Hey Guys,
I've been part of a brazilian NINTENDO SWITCH TRADE group on facebook for quite some time now and we have seen some interesting reports recently, check the img on the link (idk why I can't link direct images here):

I could translate the whole thing here, but I feel like just explaining it so please bear with me...
Nintendo actually banned a user account that bought a 2nd hand copy of Mario Kart 8. The previous owner of the game was using the cart unique cert to play the game online via backup, Nintendo might've discovered it and probably banned both user accounts (the guy who bought the game got his account banned for sure and the previous owner we don't know anything about him yet, if he got superbanned, console banned or account banned).
The facebook post OP said his Nintendo Switch wasn't modded in any ways and that he lost all stuff he has paid for on his account (luckily only a Nintendo online Service subscription). He can still play online and access e-shop/buy games/play online and stuff, but he won't risk going online with that mario kart cart online anymore... For obvious reasons
I've never seen anything like this around GBATemp so I found this could be quite useful. @Draxzelex maybe this could help a little bit on your ban research/pool.
