Are proxy sites scamming us?

I’ve been struggling to create Tinder accounts in the US. I’m from the UK, so my setup has to be perfect. it’s not 2019 anymore.

I’ve narrowed the issue down to proxies after finding a good IP checker. I tested proxy pools from all the leading providers, including Proxy Empire and Novemaden and others using both mobile data and residential proxies. The results have been shocking.

When I checked my own Wi-Fi IP and UK mobile data, the results were perfect scores. However, as you can see from the attached results, public proxies are performing terribly. Have these proxies just been overused by everyone? Or does the score even matter? I can’t figure out why I’m still unable to create Tinder accounts. I’ve even tried using a brand-new phone, but still no luck.

I’ve recently found this forum there’s a lot of proxy sellers I guess I’ll test and see what happens. Maybe if there was a bot to check the entire IP pool of a provider I’m guessing 2-5% will be good enough to use it’s impossible to do it manually though I’ve checked many IPs and none has shown a good maxmind/intel score

The maxmind score should be less than 1, maxmind risk less than 0.65 and IP intel score less than 0.3 only time I got this was using my own Wi-Fi and data

You could try using residential proxies from a larger pool, then you are less likely to get an IP that has been used by someone else
 
Do not bother about the results of various IP score checkers. I have had IPs that showed low scores in various IP score checkers, but still perform pretty good in creation and multi-accounting of social media accounts. Remember, apart from IP, the account creation strategy and account operation strategy also matters. Make it all appear to be a real, legit, natural user.

I get what you mean I’ve got some experience I believe my problems are proxies I’ll keep looking
 
Maybe yes, maybe not. But a lot of factors can still affect on how the accounts you will be making perform., not just the proxy/IP.
 
Check the fraud score on scamalaytics. Even though, i don’t trust these proxy checking tools but if the proxy is reported for frauds, i think you’ll have a hard time creating accounts on some websites.

Try out with some residential proxies and see if you’re able to create accounts or not.
 
Best bet might be renting fresh mobile lines, these proxies are straight-up burnt
 
most public proxies are flagged. Your best bet is finding a provider with fresh, low-risk IPs or using a private mobile proxy with a clean history.

Do you have any suggestions? I tried a few sellers on this forum and the proxies were trash
 
Not all proxy sites are scams, but some may steal data, inject malware, or track your activity—use reputable ones cautiously.
 
I think you should check out a few well-known provider, such as Bright Data, Smart Proxy, etc. And be sure that you use a good phone number that can function well for your purposes.

Contact someone you know in the US and have them purchase IPblocks for you from there ISP

Yeah I know someone was gonna do that but if he gives me his mobile data I can only hit that one location right?
 
Building your own proxy farm is always the best solution in the end. It's only going to get tougher from here on.

There are a few different sellers of plug and play proxy farm solutions here in the forum, you can try finding one with good reviews and setting up your own DIY farm.
 
Yes, public proxy are over used, don't use them for tinder account creation, there is many reputed proxy seller here, read review and buy that support Tinder.

test one that is private and dedicated, ask for a trial too. Unfortunately, you need to test more proxies from different providers. If you're looking for a good one, check their websites, and reviews
 
You just gotta test from bigger residential/ mobile pools. Scores will vary based on how they set up their calculation logic.
