A way to attack accounts?

I think I have been targeted by a competing social media company in my area.

I have been running an instagram account for a client after competing for the contract from a competitor that I have really bad blood with. They are probably aware I have been doing F/U and wanted to take me down for it.

Last month I suddenly got a message from the client asking why they couldnt find the account and what happened to it. It got PVed but it was only down for a few hours (I check it every day). This is very odd as I know that the client does not usually check the IG account. They are also completely social media illiterate but sent a very precise message saying "there is no trace of it anywhere on instagram."

I believe my competitor must have been reporting my account for spam with multiple accounts or something and when it got PVed they must have reported it to the client.

Is this a real threat that I need to look out for?

The account could not be seen under search unless when typed in full. Is that what you meant?

If that is what you meant. Were you able to resolve it?

Above all, Social Media Competition is real. You only need to be on top of your game. You will be fine.

I don't call it competiiton if a motherfucker come and report just so he can get rid off u.. it's so stupid same thing happend to me but for YouTube .. ranked a video #1 a competitor reported my channel and videos and got banned.

Not being able to see your account on search results isn't a serious threat unless you're being reported too many times (i suspect it's a kind of shadow ban). Did the account's engagement mess up?

Yea... I gotta find other ways to grow that account now. It already has a good number of followers so I suppose I can just do regular ads.

Especially now that I know that other person will definitely start attacking me again given the chance.
