new IG account got video verification instantly

I just wanted to create a second IG account to run some tests. I used a new email, tried to be careful, didn’t post or add anything, just logged in, checked settings, and logged out. Next morning, I tried to log back in and they asked me to upload a selfie photo to verify my identity. I’m not even trying to spam, just a basic account. I’ve lost like 3 accounts this way. Even when I upload the photo, they never give the account back.

It's Meta's new algorithm. Getting locked out 3 times is a warning that you should try creating an account with a new proxy or VPN
Also remember to create an email from a separate proxy, using a domain mail also helps increase credibility

Switch to a different IP or device. Use a phone number instead of an email for registration. If you don’t have access to another mobile device, consider using an antidetect browser (like Hidemyacc, Dolphin, etc.) combined with a proxy.
