Questions on SMM panels for IG growth

Has anyone ever came across an Instagram case study on SMM panels for Instagram growth?

I've been considering buying IG views and IG likes from SMM panels to grow my account from 5k - 50k and I'm curious to see if anyone has done that before.

Fake stuff won’t grow your real following.. Look into powerlikes if you have money to blow on insta.

The only thing panels are good for is reselling and gaining an instant credibility.
