Yep, pretty much. :slight_smile:

Hey my friend,

after opened IG, on one account there was an allerte where IG told me “to protect your account, we have reset your password. Tap receive assistance and follow the instructions” (in italian, because account is italian).

But when I clic on “send email” or number of phone, IG doesn’t send me nothing. How can I do? It’s very hard that situation… :sweat:

How do you work around this issue? I get it whenever I login from my phone using any browser, which is a bummer, because OAuth requires a login using a browser. But when the security code arrives, the instagram page redirects to the startpage, forgetting the API request sent through its own official login page. Does it help to turn on 2FA?

Hi, I have this account with an instagram username but I mistakenly removed the email xxxx@gmail.xxx associated with it and now it turns out to recover the password by sending it to the @example.xxx mail that I never entered. I don’t understand how it happened. Can you help me urgently? Thanks a lot.

Aside that, you do not mention how you created this account?

Did you create it yourself?
Did you buy this account from someone?
By any chance you managed to use a number to register on the account?
Do you have access to the OG e-mail?

Hello,
I apologize for the bad use of the forum, but I’m pretty messed up;) The Instagram account was created by me with the Gmail email but unfortunately without a phone number to register. It is used for my father’s food sales business. I have access to the Google mail but obviously I do not have access to the example.xxx mail that I have never created. Unfortunately, I have removed the email from the account. When I try to enter Instagram I have the error shown in the figure.

Thanks for the support
Regards

So basically no access to a verification number or e-mail.

Did you use your residential ip address or mobile data to create tge account?

If you have used used your residential ip address and still have access to it, you still may have a slight chance to recover it. But if you used mobile data or any changing IP, and you have no access to original e-mail or phone things looks worse.

Can you by any chance prove that your father is the accountholder? Any pictures of him on his profile selling his items?

Ciao,
Hello,
yes then I am not aware if the ip address with which the account was created is residential since I changed provision two months ago. The problem arises from the fact that the account was created in 2019 due to a consultant who made the creation for me but in my presence. The instagram profile is shown in the photo.

Is there any possibility of recovering it?

To be honest I see no other way than reporting it lost or hacked. All other possible options retrieving the account seems to be closed.
Maybe others may have suggestions? Feel free to put in your two cents.
But missing the number and the e-mail makes it hard. Also now that you don’t have access to the original IP either, another possibility is lost.
Try applying from the original e-mail which was connected to the account.
In these times you may face a looooong journey ahead of you. But if you insist having this account back, you gotta be persistent.
Now you don’t have access to 2nd lvl here yet unfurtunately. Henry cooper has made a great tutorial for that. But to gain access you gotta work your way up to 2nd lvl. However you can look for a good guideline online, which can show you how to retrieve a lost account.
On the otherhand, the account seems to have a couple of hundred followers. See if you can somehow manage to drag them to another account if you find that possible ofcourse.

Wish you great luck and happy easter.

I thank you for your support and I wish you a happy Easter. Hopefully someone can help me because I don’t know how to get out of it. Thanks

Anyone ever seen this? There is no option to verify so I can’t get pass it. Happened to 2 of my accounts this past week

In case anyone get stuck with this. I finally figured out how to fix it.

Click forget password, type in username but instead of click next, click need more help. Then you will have the opportunity to do a EV then PV (need to do 2), then you will get the account back.

On pc or phone this works for you? Because when I do it on pc I don’t see any option to click “need more help”, on phone I do… But when I click it it just takes me to the page full of information but not to PV or EV. What you think I’m doing wrong?

I did it on the phone. I just tried to do it on a working account now but it only goes to page of information you described. But when I did it on my 2 stuck accounts last week, it lead to EV+PV page. Maybe it only works if the account is in certain stuck state.

Crazy. I had a solution as wee for it… I had to login, change the password… open a incognito window in browser then paste the link from the email received after the password change under the words that say “secure your account here” … But unfortunately this account doesn’t receive the password changed email. The account is visible on Instagram… Just no idea how to get back into it. Do you have any ideas?

same thing here, if anyone can help or contact support on my behalf please let me know :pray:

I believe nobody mentioned this:

There’s a slight chance that your IP has been suspended, I’ve heard about similar stuff before that they show a message that looks something like this.

Anyway, just a speculation, this might give you an insight or two additionally: https://proxyway.com/guides/how-to-unblock-instagram

Any help??? iobcertified@gmail.com

Just curious why you are looking forward to login into such an old account? Because of it’s username?
