My account was compromised but No Block?! LOL

Instagram Marketing
#1

I don’t know why I am still able to like and follow. This never happened before. Usually, I would be banned for 2 - 7 days but all I did was change my password and I can still use Instagram no problem. I even tested a follow, unfollow, and like action on my mobile device. No pop-up.
When the compromise message appeared I was ready for the worst. It prompted me to change my password so I did. The app opened, seemed to be buggy because my account stats weren’t even showing. I was a little scared. :sweat_smile: I immediately closed the app and reopen it. Then the login screen appeared. Before I logged in on my mobile device, I changed the Jarvee password to the new password to validate my account. Once it was valid, I logged into Instagram on my IphoneX and it is working fine. No ban either.

I am going to take some time no automating. This is strange but I am not complaining.

Others have reported this over the last week, have noticed it on many client accounts as well.

#3

Really? and nothing happened?
Hmmm so what actions did they take afterwards did you know?

#4

I use every day many accounts that were “Compromised” before. No bans, no more blocks than before. I didn’t notice a difference tbh from my PoV

#5

I’ve had those on some client accounts recently also, but no bans or blocks

What did you do after the compromise notice?

#7

We let the account rest for 3 days and then scaled back how aggressive the activity was. Been fine since.

AC don’t lead to full action block 100% of the time. It only happens most of time but not all in my experience

i got a weird one 3 days ago.
I upgraded my main phone(iphoneX) to a bigger new xs max plus, phone restored via apple cloud – went to enter one of my mains – logged in and baam – AC message!. I was pissed, changed password to login, went to help and reported a problem asking why in some pissed off language – went to instagram facebook page and said why in a long message on most recent post – then went to facebook help support and bitched them out again. so far no throttles, no shadows and its growing the same. just weird.

I got a weird one too. I haven’t automated on my main for 10 days (first 7 days were due to full block), didn’t even log in anywhere else but on my own iPhone. Did completely manual F/UF for 2 days after 7 days then BAM AC.

Ya, it’s ridiculous. Not even a login on another device beside my iPhone. The only thing I can think of is I get a new IP on my iPhone maybe a couple times a day because I have been traveling a lot for 2 weeks.
