Hi, I am writing here because I can't make posts yet, and I don't see any reason to create a new post for an issue that has already been raised by someone else and is so easy to find.
I have a phone database, and I am calling them using Skype, taking notes on everybody.
- Date of the call
- Phone number that I am using
- What I am discussing with them
One of them don't answer, so I tried to leave them a text on WhatsApp. After 5 messages, I got banned.
Before doing this, I looked on forums and on YouTube to find reasons why WhatsApp bans accounts.
- It was a 2-week-old account (unused, just created).
- I used the official WhatsApp app.
- I sent the messages manually from WhatsApp web.
- I didn't send the same message to everybody.
- I didn't send the messages one after another; I waited for people to respond, and I had more messages with them (they responded to me).
What I didn't do:
- I didn't have received messages (people who wrote me as the first message).
- The people that I was texting didn't have my phone number in their agenda.
- I didn't send the messages from the phone.
- The phone that I used to install WhatsApp is a very cheap one, Alcatel (I don't know the model) (I don't think it's something because of that; I saw a YouTube video, and the person from the video was saying that this can be a reason too).
Anyone who has experience with WhatsApp spam (what I did wasn't spam) and can offer me some advice, please?
Anyone who knows an SMS tool that I can use to send and receive text messages? (I need to see what that person is texting me back, and if I use Skype to text them, they are seeing a short number or the Skype ID).
