Today I encountered a big problem with all my accounts running on followliker, they all got deativated. I would like tell you about it maybe someone can find the problem on this or maybe learn something from this experience.
Accounts:
Instagram accounts were created from my PC with proxies, I created 3 accounts per proxy. The accounts were created from a bunch of different facebook pages with the same profile picture for every 3 accounts (from the seetings - instagram ads menu of the facebook page).
All the accounts requested phone verification and they were verified 3 acc per one phone number. I used real numbers (I bought sim cards). So basically all my accounts were linked 3 by 3.
The description was different for each account (the main text was the same but I changed some punctuations, some words order, some signs, etc).
The bio link pointing to my landing page was shortened with bit.ly and every single account had a different link pointing to the same LP.
Proxies that i used are private dedicated proxies ordered from buyproxies-org.
FollowLiker settings:
I was using 1 project where I was running all 30 accounts with global settings, I only did follows.
Scrape user limit: 80
Follow Limit: 10-18
Daily follow limit: 950-990
Delay follow: 20-25
I run this project for about 2 weeks with just 3 temp bans and a second phone verification for some of the accounts.
I only run follow liker during day, when I go to sleep I also close the software so it is running for about 12-18 hours/day.
I also have a different project where I unfollow, when one of the accounts reaches the 7500 limit I pause it in the follow project and add it to the unfollow project, I never ran follow and unfollow on the same day on one account. The unfollow settings are the same.
The Problem:
Today when I woke up and I started followliker, I opened the follow project and started it (out of my 30 accounts 2 were paused because they were under temp ban, 3 of them paused because phone verification was required from the previous day and I didn't do it yet and 7 accouts were paused because they were at the 7500 limit and they were running in the unfollow project).
So I had 18 accounts running, after 5 minutes of running all of them got disabled but all of those that were paused for temp ban, phone verification or running in the unfollow project were untouched.
Like I said earlier my accounts were connected 3 by 3 (same proxy, same phone number, same profile picture) but they weren't disabled 3 by 3, in a group of 3 where 2 were running and 1 was paused for unfollow only those 2 got banned and not the 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] one...
After this mass ban, i phone verified those 3 accounts and started them in the follow campaign and are working fine for 4 hours (and this 3 accounts are linked with accounts that were disabled and an individual group of 3 accounts linked only between them), so what could of caused that mass ban instantly after i started to run followliker this morning ?...
I would love if anyone can tell me what caused this and how could instagram link all those accounts without linking them to the others too. Any thoughts are very appreciated. I can also provide more details if you think it could be relevant.
