Hard action block (no likes, no comments, no follows, no posting) for 7 days

[vanmatte]

2. Nothing to be scared about - you need simply to change the password.

I changed the password a week ago when the first alert come out, but then yesterday they blocked me to do every kind of action for a week.

What I recommend to do is: change device ID, buy good proxy for this account and restart everything from the very beginning.

Changed the device ID a week ago, when the first alert come out… didn’t tryed to use a proxy btw.

I got hit with three blocks all within an hour of each other. Two 24 hour like blocks on accounts doing less than 200 likes/day. One on residential ip and one on 4g. The message said something like “this action has been blocked until 7/17/2019 at xx:xx due to previous actions on this account” which is a message I’ve never seen before. The other was a follow block on an account I’ve been keeping varying between 60-120 follows/day and have on a residential proxy.

The three simultaneous blocks on three seasoned unrelated accounts makes me wonder what other filter Instagram has that’s triggering these.

I feel like I’m very careful having residential IPs local to the client, having them only post during certain times when jarvee isnt active on their account and only doing so with their wifi turned off. The one on a 4g never accesses the account themselves.

I’ve recently seen two messages from instagram saying they track how accounts scroll and where the user’s finger taps in order to recognize bots.

I’m feeling like that’s having more to do with this because I think it’s very likely that their technology is good enough to recognize accounts that are moving through the app in unnatural ways.

We are talking about another kind of block, the hard action block (likes, comments, follows, POSTING block) for 7 days. Read the name of the topic, please.

[vanmatte]

Maybe its because he is using residental IP all the time and doing actions from API, not using phone internet at all, no one using instagram only with wifi on, I guess…

It’s a static residential home IP, based where I live, do you think that it could be the problem?

I get that the block is different. My point is that I think there are more contributing factors to the blocks now than just proxies and number of actions, and that applies to all blocks.

I shared those blocks to point out that something caused Instagram to take action on 3 accounts, that are playing very safe with good proxies, almost simultaneously and I don’t think that better proxies or whether you like when you follow or not is going to be our solution for long. I think the fact that you got something as harsh as this hard action block without doing anything crazy just shows that there’s more to it.

The people at Instagram obviously know about Jarvee and all of the different types of software/apps we all use. I also think it’s very likely that they’ve tested all of them out to see how they browse through the app and execute actions to find distinct differences between the bots and manual action. FB’s AI is smart enough to look for more than just how many people you follow in a day and what IP is being used.

I’m also guessing that somebody there is on here every day reading all of the solutions that are posted.

We’re never going to outsmart FB’s AI technology, so I think we just need to explore more ways to fly under the radar.

You’re very right. BTW 7 day blocks were received by people who perform actions manually too.

[vanmatte]

So what do you suggest to do? To re-login on Jarvee but to don’t do any kind of actions for these days?

[Tritan84]

I’ve also received this hard action block. Says it will be lifted on the 7/23.

I thought I was running fairly conservative settings. Received the warning about a week ago. Changed my password and immediately relogged in my Jarvee. A few days later, received this hard block.

A couple things to note. About 1-2 weeks ago I turned on my like exchange tool, which immediately increased the amount of likes per posts. Also, a couple days before the warning, I restarted the unfollow tool. I had it turned off for a couple weeks.

I use Jarvee on a laptop with just 1 personal business Instagram account on my home’s wifi. I post via my phone using my phone provider’s data or work wifi.

I’d like to restart automation once the block is over, as it’s been crucial for my tiny business’ growth, but I’m obviously paranoid now. Anyone else with this type of block?

[vanmatte]

Me ahahah, and I got the same things.
An alert a week before, and then the hard block.

How many likes was you doing for day?
How many follows?

[Tritan84]

I’ll have to double check when I get home, but I think about 250-350 likes and under 200 follows.

When I turned on my unfollow, it was set at 300-350. And I kept the default settings on the like exchange when I turned it on.

I’m a complete noob

I just got this today, so I’m in the same boat as @vanmatte it won’t work in Jarvee, embedded browser Jarvee, mobile phone, computer browser, and incognito browser (lol, I was desperate and trying everything). So now I’m just going to sit and wait this one out patiently, but I’ll keep watching this thread. I was using Jarvee, but also using engagement pods for likes and comments, so perhaps the combination of both set this off. My instagram account is 2 years old.

Same as me, it’s a general block, you can’t do anything, just wait…
What was you doing (how many follows, likes, proxy, ecc), just to find a pattern

[sarahinbeirut]

Can confirm that a client got this block today. She got the “Compromised Account” pop up. She changed her password, tried to post after and was hit with a 7-day block.

I had a few people get the compromised account pop up but they just changed their password and that was it.

[porianl]

i get the same massage because i do a massive use on the like exchanger
but the block over after 1 day
my friend get the same block like you for about 7 days but now its all running good and he start using jarvee agine on the account

[maxyproxy]

recommend switching to 4g once account gets unblocked by following @TrAff1Monster example.

[Tritan84]

Had this block for the last week. Expires tomorrow. Will take it easy after a day or 2, then will restart Jarvee with very conservative settings. Will not use like exchange and will not F/UF at the same time. Fingers crossed

[birdman99]

A client of ours received this 7 day block today as well.

She was on a 4G HC proxy that wasn’t working so we moved her to another 4G proxy seller on the board. We shut her actions off, switched her over and waited. Started back up about 6 hours later and she just messaged us to let me know that she tried to do a like and got the ban.

[vanmatte]

I can’t understand if there is a pattern, something similiar that cause it, or not…

[rosietea]

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? I also got a hard block (7 days) and am nervous about starting Jarvee back up again.

Switched from DC to residential proxy and turned off EB actions since I got the hard block after a login loop with EB.

[vanmatte]

I just getted unblocked from the 7 days total ban.
I let my profile rest for 3 days more, and today started to follow people again:
After 12 follows, I got the notice telling me that my account has been compromised again.

This is the notice I received again:

This is the translation:
Your account has been compromised
It seems that you have shared your password with a service who helps to gain more “likes” and followers, and this is against out community guidelines.
Change your password to continue to use Instagram. If you will share your password again with one of these services, you won’t be able again to follow new users, “like” and make comments.
Change your password

What do you plan to do?
