I was banned from BrightData(Luminati)

I was banned from BrightData(Luminati) and the fun part is that it was because of the fact that "I buy facebook profiles" lol
I was very transparent to them and I said I buy profiles to advertise on facebook(I was activating the residential proxies), and that was simply the reason the rep banned me lol.

their service is quite good(even the support), but when a manager thinks bad about your use case(even you're not violating their TOS), you're fuc*ked up.
their rep are gods, it's not even possible to appeal! this is the dumbest thing in my life I've been banned for(feeling quite odd)!

Anyone knows a similar service that supports facebook and have "pay as you go" plan option?

Thanks!

Is there not a solution here that would work for you?

there is no such thing as empty facebook account, hence emulate a real user for misleading purposes.
youre impersonating people on facebook accounts that have alternative names, pictures etc. if you werent, youd be using your own facebook account.
if i went into a dealership and stole a car, can i claim that i didnt steal it because technically nobody owns it?
no
if i create multiple tinder profiles and claim that theyre not real accounts so its okay?
no.
future: dont disclose what ur using proxies for, dont breach their policy.

lol,

your car dealership situation doesn't relate!! nor it makes sense!!

why do you say there's no such thing as an empty facebook/tinder account? would you send a message to someone with 0 friends, no timeline, no profile picture? the only thing required to open a facebook account, and it's public, it's the name!! can you proof you're impersonating someone with just a name?? lol


"youre impersonating people on facebook accounts that have alternative names, pictures etc. if you werent, youd be using your own facebook account."

so, facebook only feature is to interact with people? is that the only feature of a facebook account? have you heard of FB Ads and whom has access to it?

think twice!!

i know people are getting dumber these days but i guess i get to experience one first hand.
when u create a facebook profile, you need to put in a name and date of birth, hence a fake profile.
fakebook pages, ads, etc are for PEOPLE making pages, ads, etc.
you wouldnt need to buy profiles.
you even said facebook profile.
profile is a PERSON.

and just to clear up the stupidity... facebook ads.. ads... which are going to be shown to... you guessed it... PEOPLE!
because PEOPLE create facebook profiles for themselves, OR, create fake profiles.
fake profile = NOT REAL
do you know why people sell fake profiles or ad accounts? because they go against TOS and alot get banned which by you needing multiple, you have learnt this first hand.
there is no such thing as an empty facebook profile. there is a real facebook profile and a fake facebook profile.
now i presume youve atleast passed the basics in school and life, so you should know the difference between fake and real so im not going to explain that so lets get back to the actual issue

Facebook accounts are for real people(read their TOS)
using someone elses profile/fake profile is emulating a real person under a pseudo(if thats wrong, u wouldnt be buying accounts and u'd use ur own)
the account was created for misleading purposes or fraudulent activity. (as above)

your name is Mr.Pride... so if youre gonna do something BH stop being in denial and show your pride. were all here for BH, stop with the "im doing BH but im gonna deny it because blah blah blah" because i\f thats the case, youre in the wrong forum.
we know what we do, we get caught out sometimes, we dont deny it, we ask for solutions to get around it.
ive already told you that u shouldnt disclose a BH purpose for anything so take it as a lesson learnt and move on.

@C4rnage569 Sorry to interrupt but by your logic even scraping , price comparision is unethical, because who on earth would like their site to be scraped and price compared and disclosed?
Anyway its up to them to allow what they can.

There is a lesson to be learned here.

@C4rnage569
I guessed you haven't advertised on Facebook recently(last 1-2 years).
if you were advertising(WH or BH, whatever, even advertitsing cat faces on FB), you wouldn't be talking this nosense!

and now you removed the word "impersonating" from you texts, well, you know why!

We know what is a fake profile, and yes it's not real!!

so, if we create a profile named "Mr Cat", and put imaginary info(date of birth, gender, etc) to run ads, is that unethical?
what defines unethical is what we do with the fake profile, not the fake profile itself!

SO, YOU CAN'T PROOF SOMETHING IS UNETHICAL JUST BECAUSE THERE IS A FAKE PROFILE BEHIND!

but you're wrong saying it's for misleading purposes or fraudulent activity.
YOU: the reason we buy profiles is because of "misleading purposes or fraudulent activity", you must be stupid or have little experience to say so.

and no, I am not running BH, if I were, I don't care to say!!

HERE I HAVE A GREAT DEAL FOR YOU:
I will give 10k USD if you can find someone advertising(WH or whatever, even cat faces, the most compliant ads you might think) on FB that have spent 5k/month(very little!) without being banned, and it's not using agency accounts. and it's advertising with his personal profile, no friend/family profile, his own profile!

very easy to earn, just find someone who can proof the above, and you will earn it!!

I thought you got banned from Illuminati

seems pretty straight forwards, you did something they didnt like
move on to another supplier, problem solved
