Instagram deleting. What to do?
{"time":1641377346607,"blocks":[{"id":"LmjDA7i12E","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Instagram is a significant part of our life. Here we communicate with family and friends, store photos, do business and think that it will always be this way. Imagine our surprise when one morning we do not find our profile on the social network. It simply does not exist."}},{"id":"pOQpa2-IzF","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Why Instagram blocks users, how to distinguish blocking from hacking, and how to restore your account - in our review."}},{"id":"Maqmg98bgh","type":"Header","data":{"text":"Why was Instagram deleting?","level":2}},{"id":"W8EQOnuAkR","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"There are can be many reasons, because each case is individual. It all depends on a social network rule that a user violated."}},{"id":"7bvbUDXOWE","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"But there is also something in common: if you have been blocked by Instagram, pay attention to the error window that appears upon login. There is an important button “Details”. When you click on it, a new window opens with a reason for a ban."}},{"id":"GSKYVuhQOA","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Does not the social network name the reason? So the time has not come yet. Instagram announces it only after 24 hours. So you have to wait. Yes, restoring a profile is not an easy and often time-consuming process."}},{"id":"OAz01i7ZjQ","type":"Header","data":{"text":"Types of locks","level":2}},{"id":"K6TArfyE6i","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"There are many reasons for the ban. They all come from the User Agreement, which you confirmed as soon as you joined Instagram. But of course you haven't read it. There are detailed \"User obligations\", violating which you risk to lose your profile. Let's analyze each reason."}},{"id":"D3V74fyyCD","type":"List","data":{"style":"unordered","items":["Cheat likes or followers. This ban category also includes spam, the use of third-party services (including CRM systems and auto-postings). Instagram closely monitors any suspicious activity and blocks it.","Call for violence. If there is in your posts a manifestation of hatred on social, racial, religious or any other grounds, your profile can be disabled. Terrorism, the sale of weapons and drugs are also prohibited.","Posing as another person. Instagram doesn't like fake accounts. The social network generally advocates that you have only one profile. So, if you use the name and photo of another person for your account, expect your account would be disabled soon. However, there is a catch here. If you find that someone has created your fake, in any case do not complain about it for the reason of \"impersonating another person.\" The fact is that Instagram algorithms are imperfect, and after this complaint they will block you, not a fake. Better to file a copyright infringement complaint.","Ban for age. According to the rules, only users aged 13 and older can have an Instagram profile.","Distribution of pornography. Here everything is simple too. Nudity on Instagram is prohibited. Although many users manage to bypass it.<br>","Complaints. There is not much that depends on you here. Instagram users are generous with complaints. It is difficult to guess what exactly they will not like. Hold grudges against you and throw complaints, you will be forced to restore your account after it is disabled.<br>","Copyright. This type of blocking often affects Insta-shops of “fake” clothes. Before your account is banned for this reason, you will be notified that the trademark owner has filed a complaint. The letter will also contain all the conditions that must be met in order to avoid a complaint. Also, copyright blocking can be for the use of music, photos and videos rights to use which don’t belong to you.<br>"]}},{"id":"iDXkHcJoZ8","type":"Header","data":{"text":"Temporary blocking","level":2}},{"id":"PYvrbwLiy1","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Instagram can restrict certain actions for a specific period. The difference between such a ban and disabled account is that your account will be available to you and other users. However, you will not be able to, for example, like or follow other profiles."}},{"id":"c-CJxe7uzA","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"This type of blocking is used for minor violations. For example, if a user exceeds the limit on the number of likes. But in case of repeated such violations, the account can be blocked \"for real\""}},{"id":"Ht4PMsmg2U","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Your actions can be limited for a few hours (3, 7 or 24) or for a few days (also 3, 7 or 21). "}},{"id":"QWGPUQHroj","type":"Header","data":{"text":"What is the difference between blocking and hacking?","level":2}},{"id":"lxjjEi__fW","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Losing access to your profile does not always mean that you was blocked. This can sometimes turn out to be a hack."}},{"id":"Qn1aUjJqAH","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Most often, “hackers”, after they hijacked an account, immediately use it for their own purposes: they post fake information on your behalf, allegedly about health problems with your relatives, with a request to send any amount of money."}},{"id":"7Yy58ztsD-","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"However, it also happens otherwise: sometimes hackers hide the account and then it is not possible to find it through the search. The password does not match, and the user thinks that he was blocked."}},{"id":"esDHnz0RAp","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"<mark class=\"cdx-marker\">It is easy to distinguish hacking from blocking - when you are banned, Instagram will notify you about it. But with a competent \"hijacking\" - no.</mark>"}},{"id":"oT7ED2iMgK","type":"Header","data":{"text":"Instagram was blocked. How to unblock?","level":2}},{"id":"EZJmIKNdUu","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"As we already said, each blocking case is individual and requires a special approach. There is no clear instruction on how to proceed. But there are several ways that can work."}},{"id":"lezqfJ109m","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Their difficulty is that Instagram does not have technical support, which is available to any user 24/7. There is no chat or hotline. Only dry forms for treatment. In case you are blocked, you can try to fill in one of them."}},{"id":"rNFFVLFR3R","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"<b>1.\tUnlocking through forms</b>"}},{"id":"Oy_oJp7Dor","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Open the Instagram app and try to sign in to your profile. The familiar error window will appear in front of you. Click \"Details\" - the reason for blocking will open. Below we see the inscription: \"If you think that there was an error, please let us know about it.\" Click here."}},{"id":"fuBmdv5zA8","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"Now we have a form that needs to be filled out. The type of questionnaire depends on the type of ban. Therefore, it looks different for everyone and asks for different information. Your task is to follow the instructions. And patiently carry on correspondence with support through the forms. All replies from the social network will be sent by email."}},{"id":"V2wEacBRky","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"This method has a big drawback. It barely works. But there were times when it helped. So there is hope."}},{"id":"SPQCr7iMvJ","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"<b>2.\tSupport Chat</b>"}},{"id":"kqT_yQGzXr","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"This type of communication with Facebook managers is not available to everyone, but only to active advertisers. It's easy to check if you are one of those. Go to the Facebook for Business website, in the header of the page find the support section and go to it."}},{"id":"KxPg6IpnfA","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"If you scroll down and see the section “Need help?” and the button \"Get started\", congratulations - this is the way to chat with support. Try to explain your problem to the manager. There is a chance that he will help you."}},{"id":"Rov0s-8CNL","type":"Header","data":{"text":"Hacked Instagram. What to do?","level":2}},{"id":"61hn0128Yj","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"First of all, you should check if you received any emails from Instagram. If there is a letter from security@mail.instagram.com in your e-mail box, which says about re-binding a new unknown mail to your Instagram account, try to cancel this action."}},{"id":"cMFZyYjevV","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"You can also request an Instagram login link or security code through this email."}},{"id":"WdOFgdZFDE","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"But hijackers know how to cover their tracks. So, if you still find such an email, consider yourself lucky - it's a rarity."}},{"id":"w1C_HGRlDg","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"If nothing came of it, then we turn to<a href=\"https://help.instagram.com/contact/151081798582137\"> this form</a> and follow the instructions."}},{"id":"U6QNHaPR8G","type":"Header","data":{"text":"How to protect your account from being banned?","level":2}},{"id":"Fzewlq5cGw","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"1.\tForget about cheating and mass following. And don't create suspiciously high activity. Agree, it looks strange if usually you receive 50 likes on a photo within a year, and a new photo suddenly collects 2 thousand hearts."}},{"id":"wiJAsuolr-","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"2.\tTry not to annoy other users. A lot of the same comments and constant marks of other people's accounts will unleash a wave of hatred and complaints on you. The same goes for direct message spam."}},{"id":"rVdgq8upMu","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"3.\tInstagram does not approve of the use of various automated services that request access to your profile. Usually these are sites for auto-posting, collecting statistics or checking followers/unfollowers. They use gray api that Instagram finds and blocks. Together with your profile."}},{"id":"GiOHz_YzKR","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"4.\tBe careful while travelling around the world. If you suddenly go to your profile and Instagram sees that your ip-address has changed from Russia to, for example, Brazil, Instagram will have many questions for you. So make sure that the mail and phone number associated with your account are in working order. In case you need to confirm that it is you who are logging into your account."}},{"id":"3QI_YX2CPD","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"5.\tCarefully study the rules of Instagram and follow them. Forget about posting erotic content. And also do not promote anorexia, suicide, do not call for violence and do not try to sell drugs and weapons."}},{"id":"h-44wyaOAh","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"6.\tCreate your own content. Other people's photos and videos will not bring you popularity. But they will bring a lot of trouble in the fight for account recovery."}},{"id":"kFnibUgezu","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"7.\tThe same applies to products of well-known brands. If you are planning to sell NIKE sneakers, be prepared for the fact that the company closely monitors the sale of replicas on Instagram and actively throws complaints about replica dealers."}},{"id":"nfkRZpCxLo","type":"paragraph","data":{"text":"These are just a few of the limitations. To fully protect yourself, we advise you to study the User Agreement and other documents on the Instagram Help Center website."}}],"version":"2.22.2"}
