Instagram got disabled possibly due to using the Python scraping tool. Kindly help

[Salman.Ahmed]

My personal Instagram account got disabled for 3-4 reasons that I read during the appeal which I forgot. I was using the Instaloader Python tool to download stories of an account daily. I've been doing it for 4 months and faced no such issues. They were hardly more than 20-30 in a given day. Most of the time they were 5-6. My dumbass should've seen it coming.

- Been scraping since January
- Consistently scraping stories of a single account
- I got 3-4 reasons why my acc got disabled but my dumbass didn't read them properly or take a screenshot
- I only remember seeing one of the reasons being unauthorized access of information and automated etc I am not sure

If there is any way I can get to know why my account is disabled, let me know, guys. This account is very dear to me. I have my media and most importantly saved reels that I don't want to lose. I want to appeal via contact forms and emails, but I must know the problem I am in first.

You got banned because you used automation, as simple as that

your best bet would be to reach out to Instagram directly through their help center or support email

You can open a WTB/HAF thread on here if you're prepared to spend a good bit of money to recover it. However, if you already filed an appeal manually and it has already escaled into a perm ban upon rejection, you're looking to spend a very sizeable amount to recover it through a rep.

Next time, always use a dummy account to scrape.
Your best bet is to appeal it and wish for the best.

Don't mention anything about using any scripts in your appeal.

Okay but what is the best action for me in my situation? What do I say to persuade them in my email and what do I avoid mentioning.

Its almost impossible to get accounts in such situations.

UPDATE: I got my account back lol. I didn't do anything. Just uploaded my selfie XD

if anything got banned, do not reach them, create a few more.
They knows what they does.

I was using this account for stalking someone. She had a private profile So getting inside the profile required me to create a fake of one of her twitter followers. The selfie part that insta asked well I basically provided the most recent photo of that person that he uploaded few days ago thankfully. He isn't aware of this insta profile.
