Fresh Setup and First IG Account Flagged in 30 Seconds...

[lovingsoul]

Hey BHW,

So I’ve spent the past week setting up everything as carefully and cleanly as possible, thinking I was being ultra stealthy. This is what I did:

• Bought a batch of older iPhones (6, 8, and SE – all reset, clean iOS installs)
• Picked up new SIM cards from different carriers (not just one brand) so i get different IP prefix and location.
• Made sure Wi-Fi was OFF from the start (didn't even connect once)
• Rebooted the devices and let them sit for a bit before use
• Created an iCloud account for each phone and a gmail account all fresh (with their respective phone numbers in each phone)
• Everything done manually, no automation or sketchy apps

Finally, today was the day. I started with an iPhone 8, and created the first Instagram account. Literally within 30 seconds of creation boom, suspended.

Didn’t even post anything or do any action other than clicking create account. It was instant.

My only thought is either the freshness of the accounts (new phone, new gmail, new everything...) or the iOS version (was using 15.8 in that phone I think)

The verification process to get the account back asked me to put the phone number, which I did without problem, but now is asking for KYC, which I think is abusive...

Let me know your opinions, what would you change or how would you continue. Thank you.

Hkw did you created the acc? Phone number or Email?

With email, but after creating the account I got asked for a phone number (when suspended)

It looks like you're taking all the right steps, but Instagram’s algorithms are getting better at detecting suspicious activity. The instant suspension might be due to the new devices, phone numbers, or IPs being flagged as unnatural. To move forward, try spacing out account creations, using different IPs, and warming up the accounts by interacting slowly with others. You could also experiment with Android emulators or other tools to reduce detection. The key is to make everything look as natural as possible and take things slow.

Try creating it with phone number, after creation add an email.

There are some metrics that IG tracks when you create an account. You have to spoof the fingerprints of that device so that you can create multiple accounts. One way you can do this is using app cloner. However, you have to check which settings will allow you to spoof the finger prints that IG tracks.

Did you use a proton mail for the email address?

I will try creating the accounts with phone number on the next phones. Thanks for the tip

Sure, you're welcome. Phone number is more legit
