Twitter Phone Re-verification Wave

Only doing the 1 k following - then waiting 10 days before I start unfollowing any.

I don't get it, what are your follow/unfollow settings, and your tweets or dms
i think that might be main culprit,
a lot of times there are footprints you leave that you can trace back to the root of the problem.
I know the last time i got hit by the sms wave, right before it started for everyone a lot of my accounts started following the same ppl and i had multiple ppl message me saying your accounts are following me, and they didn't like it and most likely reported those accounts and thus i got hit.
But you guys might be following too much or dming or putting a lot of links in your tweets?
Let me know your follow/unfollow settings and any other settings you set, i might be able to pinpoint why your accounts got hit.

I follow between 200-300 per day for each account.

For my followers, each accounts has a different list of followers to follow.

For my DMs, I sent something like 25-30 DMs per day for each account. Of course, it was spinned DMs, so each DM was different. And, even if there was 1 link, this link changed everytime.

For my tweets, let's say 2/3 of tweets without links (porn pics), and 1/3 of tweets with links.

BUT, please note that some of these accounts were alive for months without problems, and some of these accounts were just made.

I think it's more a problem about IPs and/or phone numbers used to make the accounts.

What is your delay between each task?
My accounts that got hit the first time, are still running on same ip and .ru emails. The only difference is the limits. Im following 50-120 per day and dming only on like certain days tuesdat-thursday, 20-50 per day.
I do have one test account running 200-300 follows per day, just to test limits,
But so far my accounts running 50-120 follows per day are doing fine *knock on wood* dont want to jinx myself lol

You must put a lot of time to have some followers!

My delays between each task is 4-6 minutes. But like I have several accounts, it's more

yea follower growth is not as fast but i rather be safe for now, thats why i use one test account to see what settings are safe, i run that account for a week and scale the rest of mine up to 2/3 of that account and then i scale the test account up again by like 50-70 until it gets hit then i know the limits and what to do. i also have my delays anywhere between 60-360 secs
 
I had two well-aged accounts locked today. They were both mass following but not really doing any other questionable actions. I have unlocked one and will try the other one this evening. One account is a year old and the other is several years old.

What do you think I should do now with these accounts - give them a rest? What would be a safe number of people to follow per day?

Wondering if they're at higher risk of being suspended now?

how many were you following before the suspension?

One of them, with 55,000 followers, was doing 900 a day and had done so for about a year. I got it unlocked. This is the first time it's ever had a problem.

The other, with just under 6,000 followers, was doing 400 to 700 a day, but only two or three days per week. Actually I logged into it manually and did not have a reverification request, so maybe it just hit a limit.

Wrong. I had PVA accounts, which were just banned. There was not a phone/email verfication first, just a pure ban.

So, "Twitter is safe with cell phone verification" is just wrong.

First off I'm feeling the pain too, I've lost 20,000+ accounts of my 30,000 accounts, either due to suspensions or getting the "super lock" message ( only able to unlock with sms verification code). From the tests I've been running IP addresses seem to be the issue for getting the "super lock" message ( only able to unlock with sms verification code). My experience:
I buy all of my accounts with PVA and login to change the email address to a gmail I own.
I run all accounts from unique IP addresses from Amazon EC2, 1 account per IP.
My accounts are getting locked after 0-10 follows, which I then unlock using email verify, then getting super-locked after the next 0-10 follows.
I built my own bot software and have tried using it at my office IP as well as using iMacro through my office IP, with any number of actions, and none of my accounts get either of the lock messages.

So this brings me to believe that the creation of the account, email attached, sms location, or actions, don't seem to be the cause. However the IP address is the only variable I've changed and am not seeing an issue.

I ask for your help now, how can I get unique IP addresses that Twitter hasn't blacklisted in stable numbers? Enough to support 10k+ accounts?

Can I ask what you do to make money with such a large number of accounts?

Damn that's heavy losses.
What percentage suspended vs sms locked?
I guess sms reverification is something that is unavoidable now. Just stick to accounts that weren't locked and replace the rest.

You buy your accounts too. So it may be the cause: IPs or phone numbers your seller used to create the accounts.

Let's say that accounts created with specific IPs or phone numbers are redflagged as soon as they are created. As soon as there is something strange with them, ban or super lock.
