Thousands of viewers watched as ImperialHal\u2019s doors were breached by a team of law enforcement officials.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, popular streamers and YouTubers are the most common victims of a concerning trend known as swatting \u2013 the false reporting of an emergency to public safety with the intent of summoning a SWAT team to a specific location. ImperialHal was the latest victim of the crime, though he escaped the scenario unharmed and shockingly calm.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/apex-legends-caustic-buff-removed-fight-night\/\">Apex Legends Decides to No Longer Buff Caustic, Explains Why<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Late into the streamer\u2019s broadcast of <em>Apex Legends<\/em> viewers could a loud series of knocks, followed by demands to open the door by local law enforcement. ImperialHal swiftly ducks out of frame to comply with their orders, leaving his teammates stunned and concerned for Dosen\u2019s well-being. Luckily, the <em>Apex Legends <\/em>pro eventually returned to his desk completely unharmed and confirmed he had been swatted. Though ImperialHal said the officers responded calmly, he did mention they entered his home with pistols drawn.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iLootGames\/status\/1346728882276241409?ref_src=https:\/\/gamerant.com\/imperialhall-swatted-video-clip\/twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1346728882276241409%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&#038;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dexerto.com%2Fentertainment%2Fapex-legends-pro-imperialhal-swatted-during-twitch-stream-1490339%2F%22 frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Swatting has become disturbingly common in the gaming community. The officers were not surprised ImperialHal was a streamer, as these types of cases have increased at a startling rate. Twitch streamer Tfue had very recently just dealt with his own swatting situation during a <em><a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tfue-minecraft-stream-swat-video-clip-twitch\/\">Minecraft<\/a><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tfue-minecraft-stream-swat-video-clip-twitch\/\"> stream in late December<\/a>. While ImperialHal and Tfue were lucky enough escape the frightening situation unharmed, there have been a number of instances where swatting victims were not as fortunate.<\/p>\n<p>The dangers of swatting are very real and can result in irreparable harm for all involved. In 2017 a <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/call-of-duty-swatting-gamer-death\/\">28 year old father of two was killed by police<\/a> after becoming the unintended victim of a swatting \u201cprank\u201d between <em>Call of Duty: WW2 <\/em>players. Tyler Barriss, the man responsible for the call that led to the death of Andrew Finch, was sentenced to 20 years in prison after being found guilty of 51 federal charges.<\/p>\n<p>The alarming frequency of swatting attempts has become an all-too-common practice among virtual communities. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegamer.com\/streamer-swatting-history-dangers-explained\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The anonymity of reporting techniques<\/a> allows perpetrators to place calls with relative ease. As officials make technological advancements in order to prevent swatting, cyber criminals are constantly developing ways to circumvent their efforts.<\/p>\n<p>While there may not be a fool-proof method of completely preventing swatting from occurring, there are ways for streamers to help protect themselves from becoming an easy target. As the officers who entered ImperialHal\u2019s home mentioned, <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/surfshark-vpn-gaming-deal-sale\/\">streamers should absolutely invest in a VPN<\/a>. A virtual private network (VPN) provides online privacy protection by encrypting a user\u2019s internet protocol (IP) address so that its source is virtually untraceable. It is unfortunate people need to go to such lengths to protect themselves, but it is the unfortunate reality of today\u2019s cyber world.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/super-smash-bros-ultimate-2021-dlc-challenger-packs-spirit-board-fighters-pass-3\/\">What to Expect from Super Smash Bros.
