I made a new FB ad account and ran a small test campaign with a cloaked funnel. Within 24 hours, the account got restricted. I didn’t spam, spend huge, or reuse domains. What’s triggering this so fast?

Warm accounts with safe campaigns first. $20–30 in a neutral niche for a few days usually buys you more lifespan.
 
Recycled domains or pixels are often the hidden footprint causing instant restrictions.
 
Check browser fingerprints. FB links accounts through device and browser configurations more than most people realize.
 
Avoid sudden spikes in spend or impressions. Scaling slowly is critical, even on a fresh account.

You create a new account and run ads immediately. Facebook will scan that account. All accounts must be old, business verification will be less restrictive.
 
it is a normal thing that can happen to any account, and if your account is a newly created account, it is even easier to happen, that is why people often choose to use accounts that have been created for a long time.
 
Tried running tiny budgets with no cloaker and still got restricted overnight.
 
Facebook’s AI likely flagged the cloaking or unusual activity; even small test campaigns can trigger restrictions if the system detects patterns that resemble policy violations or suspicious behavior.
 
You can start by placing a white ad as a warm-up, and then create an ad campaign after 1-2 days.
 
FB’s getting sharper with cloaking—new accounts are super sensitive, so even light cloaking or pattern detection can trigger instant flags.
 
Probably just FB’s safety filters flagging new accounts fast—better to warm things up slowly and keep everything fully compliant from the start, dude.
 
Most likely Facebook flagged the new account for unusual activity, even small tests with cloaked funnels can trigger instant restrictions.
 
New accounts have low trust, so any risky signals or patterns get flagged fast, even with low spend, it’s usually account history, funnel signals, or automation triggers.
