I just noticed that it has become far more difficult to register accounts, specifically ones with SMS virtual phone number verifications.

My most recent batch got absolutely crushed.

How is it with everyone else?
 
Seems like the verification system has tightened up recently curious if others are seeing the same drop
 
so far so good, all my accounts are up and running, maybe you’ve got a webRTC leak somewhere within your config which is getting your accs flagged.
 
I haven’t run into this issue yet. Everything seems pretty much the same on my side.

Change your device, don't use generatic number for verification it is very risky

The source of your virtual numbers is probably the issue. Try experimenting with numbers from different providers.
 
Virtual SMS numbers can be unreliable for signups, especially when many accounts use the same provider. I’d track whether accounts fail during verification or get banned days later, since those point to different problems.

Same here, platforms are getting stricter with verification. Account registration is becoming a real headache.
 
It could be a mix of number reputation, device signals, and registration patterns, using a real number and avoiding too many signups from the same setup may help.

Yeah, seems like platforms are getting stricter with verification lately.
 
Instagram has heavily cracked down on virtual SMS numbers, making real SIM cards or high-quality residential proxies essential now to prevent instant account bans.
 
the issue is likely ip leak not numbers though Meta is strict with virtual numbers. using non-voip phone number solves that. have you checked at LegitSMS, smspool and other non-voip providers?
