Is Instagram recently started to test bots more rigorously?

Recently, I have a problem that’s left me in despair.Last Wednesday, most of the accounts I was running got pva in a short period of time.That day my account just log in and getting ready to follow,Then I got pva right away.

Before I get onto this problem.All my accounts are working properly.they doing 600 follows per day.

Worse than this, if I verify pva, my account will be banned immediately.

Everything happened very suddenly.I did some testing after this happened.

Not all of my accounts have this problem. Only the account that has been followed every day has such a problem.Account who doing 600 follow per day is More serious than who doing 100 follow per day.

Does anyone have a similar situation?

I need your help
 
Yes,about a week ago,my accounts get PVA,200 followers per day
 
I've also had the same problem for a couple of days now. I've stopped all actions on my bot accounts and even then I've still gotten some phone verification requests. I plan to resume in a day or two but with very light, cautious settings. Hopefully going slowly will help regain some trust in the eyes of IG's bot detection algorithm.

Phone verification is a norm now, accounts without sims that is able to re-verify will suck.

IG uses AI for bot detection, there's no "algorithm" like back in the days so things are going to escalate real-quick this year at around oct.

So I'll need a reusable number for each account? Is there a cost efficient way of doing this? Because paying per-sms is killing me financially.
 
I have more than 50 accounts at almost 2 months. And we last days even 300 Follow a day I was getting 40 pv a day. I gave up. I prefer to instagram ads or shoutout, at least I have no headache :(
 
Are you all doing the parent/child method? How many accounts per proxy are you using and what kind of proxy?
 
i think you guys are feeling the effect of US elections for next year and all the fake bots, which facebook/twitter have promised to watch over and kill them. right now, I am being bombarded with russian troll bots with fake bernie sanders account saying how evil uncle joe biden is. It is very clear that trump and his russian pals do not want to face joe biden; they would get eaten alive.
 
You are using aggressive settings. They will let you operate if you follow 300-400 a day, a human hand will not follow 600 a day. even not 300 but it's less common that 300-400 follows a day getting flagged. This is not 2017 anymore.

At the beginning, I also think that I am using aggressive settings.But the account who follow 100 per day got pva too.I personally think that this is not just a matter of settings.
 
Use the same google number for each account
Thank you,This method may solve the problem of ban.
the biggest question is why so many pva suddenly appear.
I have recently conducted some tests.
I think instagram's ai is smarter than before. When your operation is fixed for a long time, it will be discovered.
 
I'm using 1 account per residential proxy.
If you use 1 account per residential proxy, this question still appears.That can almost rule out the problem with the proxy.

I am doing this right now, but the results are desperate, I still keep getting pva. But I will continue to try, since he is giving me pva instead of ban, it means that there is still a rescue.
 
it seems ig has updated its algo accounts are getting pva even with low settings

If so, it will be difficult.But if this is the case, normal people will also get pva. So there is still have a key point, I did not catch it.
