Hi. I've been creating YouTube channels for quite some time now using an anti-detect browser and ISP proxies, and buying aged Gmail accounts, but recently, many of my accounts have been asking me for a QR code to log in, so I can't continue using them. Has anyone figured out a way to get around this?
QR codes for login in

The QR prompt usually means Google flagged the login as untrusted, so it isn’t a bug to patch.

either your IP subnet was flagged or browser pro5 at high risk,
if u're doing cold logins without persistent cookies, then Google considers the device untrusted. make sure u're using residential/4G procies instead of datacenter & import cookies before logging in mate

google usually asks for that qr code when it notices a session mismatch and wants you to confirm from a phone that was logged in before. Better to get accounts with 2fa codes so you can hit try another way and use one of those instead
Thanks for the advice, guys. I'll have to look into cookies because I don't know how to do it.
So you think it's more of a problem related to the antidetect browser/proxy than to the aged Gmail accounts I buy?
Can you recommend any good proxy providers?

You can't use any other method, when the QR code appears, that's the only way to log in, it doesn't let you choose any other option (for the accounts that asked me to do this, I had 2FA enabled with an authenticator). .

QR code challenges can appear even if uh have clean proxies since old accounts can constantly switch their device or browser fingerprints make sure to use ID check for account recovery first.
Can you explain in a little more detail how to do that ID check?
Guys, using my own accounts is the ideal scenario, and that's obvious, but here we're trying to avoid using our own accounts because we need a new digital footprint that's different from the one I have on my home IP, otherwise, why would I use proxies and anti-detect browsers? If I log in with one of my Gmail accounts, I'm already linking myself to it.

Only secure way is a different pc outside your current router network. Like a separate new laptop at an internet cafe is a good way. Never log in or turn it on from home. That way the magical snoop cameras in the sky can't track you. Don't forget your tinfoil hat though! lol

Google may be triggering extra verification because of unusual login patterns, new devices, or account history. I’d use accounts you control and complete the official verification steps rather than trying to bypass the QR check, which could lead to more lockouts.
maybe it is not about the QR code but about the history nd google's view of the login attempt. old Gmail accounts have a lot of histtory that u can not see. i would not recommend to buy anymore until u know for sure if this is a problem of ur new account.

Google may be flagging unusual login patterns or requiring extra verification for account security use Googles official recovery process and avoid repeatedly switching devices or locations as that can trigger more checks.

Recently, Google has required verification of most new and old accounting accounts when you log in to ensure accurate usage and increase account trust, so you may need to change your device ID or use a compatible device.

In my opinion, the safest solution is to complete the official verification steps from an account under your control, rather than trying to bypass the process to avoid having your account permanently locked.

perhaps the problem is not with the QR code itself but rather that google no longer trusts the method of access to those accounts. old accounts may still inittiate a check depending on the nature of the login. has this always been an ongoing process or has it been developing gradually?

before spending money on mobile proxies i'd check if the QR problem happens with accounts from different sellers or just one batch. Google can ask for verification on perfectly good mobile IPs too, so switching from ISP to 4G won't necessarily change anything.
Even after adding multiple recovery steps like backup codes, 2FA, and recovery email, still it asks for QR code verification, and the 'try another way' option dont work that time (on desktop. Since we operate all marketing gmails from desktop by nature).. we really need to find a way out.
