Even if you mod another card, the cable company will click on to what you are watching (and they will check against what TV package you should be receiving). It is not a good idea, you will get a knock at the door and you probably will get a fine. If they don't catch you then well done but I wouldn't advise it myself mate.

If its your subbed box then.....

DO NOT MODIFY YOUR ORIGINAL SUBBED BOX
Your just asking for trouble.
Just to make it clear.

If he uses the blocker, VM will see that no information is going to them so they will get suspicious.

My old virgin box I have had done for ages and just kept the basic package with no one ever coming to the door, Is there something speacial about the V+ box that they make that extra effort or is this really just trying to scare us?
