Need help with someone harassing

[FaithlessDbo]

So I got quite a nice niche running on Instagram. There is a big company that's harassing us and other people in the same niche. This big company even tried logging in to my Instagram account (I received multiple security emails).

I'm planning to gather around with the people that are also being harassed and making screenshots which we are planning to report towards Instagram, however perhaps any of you have other suggestions as well? Please let me know because it's really pissing me (and others) off!

I know this is how companies work and such, but this is just so low for a big company to do...

Also mods, if this is not the right place people feel free to move it

This isn't how companies usually work. What kind of harassment is this i can't think of anything they can do to you via insta

That doesn't really ring true? Big companies have a lot more reputation to lose than you, so they normally don't harrass or hack into small people's IG accounts.
Or are you in a niche where the big companies are the big crooks, like gambling or porn?
And what exactly does harrassing mean for you? What are they doing?

They are harassing you by doing what ? Are you sure that it is they who are trying to access your account ?

hahaha, @EliteXSEO @manpreet and @krishnaverma -- great minds think alike. We probably all typed at the same time...

Commenting on every post I made with an account that I haven't banned (they use multiple accounts to do some comments). In these comments they tag themselves saying "Hey isn't this something like your work?" or "This looks so much like >tag here<". Also they are liking every comment so people see their name. (I know that SEO techniques are nasty, but damn...)

This is happening (and verified) to at least 5 others who are in the same niche (which is in the spiritual ish niche).

Edit: Wow so many replies already! it's great to see how much support there is in here!

@mickyfu I was actually thinking about this. Could sending massive amount of followers do any good though? I mean sending 20k followers could also increase their stuff even more, right?

Are you unable to block them?

 

[kiks]

How many followers do you have in your IG acc?

 

[FaithlessDbo]

@BassTrackerBoats I have already blocked like 5 accounts, but they have so many more than that.

@Kostas007 around 12K, which isn't much, but all organic.

Keep blocking - not much else you can do.

5 is nothing; I've blocked hundreds with my accounts on IG.

 

[FaithlessDbo]

@BassTrackerBoats Damn, I both feel sorry for you, but also envy you that you are not getting extremely pissed off by that! I just hate getting shit on by such people!

The time and energy is just something you charge to the game.

I'm not bothered at all as, although I don't do stupid stuff like harass others there (99% of my posting is automated) I do a few things that are edgy and you just have to play the game.

 

[FaithlessDbo]

Then I guess I will have to keep blocking them... Perhaps communicate with the other people who are being harassed and just contact Instagram.

If they're making similar or the same kind of comments, you can block those type of comments in your settings.

Otherwise, keep blocking...or return in kind to give them a taste of their own medicine lol.
