How to avoid bans — a checklist

Accovod removes the technical links between accounts. But sites also watch behavior. This checklist covers the most common reasons for bans.

Before the first login

• A separate proxy for every account. A shared IP is the most common reason accounts get banned in bulk.
• The proxy is checked. Fraud Score under 25 for new and valuable accounts. See Proxy check.
• Proxy country = account country. Don’t open a US-registered account from an Indian IP.
• Language and timezone match the proxy. A US IP + Europe/Moscow + ru-RU is an obvious mismatch.
• One profile, one account. Don’t sign in to different accounts of the same service from one profile.

New accounts

• Warm the profile up. Before signing up, browse ordinary sites: news, search, video. Walker can automate it.
• Take it slow. For the first days, only light actions: fill in the profile, scroll the feed. Ads, mass follows and messaging come later.
• Don’t create dozens of accounts in an hour from the same proxy subnet.

Every day

• Act like a person. Pauses between actions, varied order, no identical messages to everyone.
• Don’t change the proxy country of a live account. If a proxy dies, get a new one in the same country, ideally the same city.
• Don’t change the fingerprint without a reason. An account gets used to “its device”. Changing the protection mode or User-Agent is a new device to the site.
• If a CAPTCHA keeps failing, try V3 More Native in Settings.

Purchased and handed-over accounts

• A proxy from the account’s previous country. A sudden location change after a cookie login often resets the session.
• Cookies first, password later. A cookie login looks like the old session continuing; a password login from a new device looks suspicious.
• Don’t change password, email and phone right away. Give the account a few days on its new “device”.

Teams

• One profile is open by one person at a time. Two parallel sessions are a red flag.
• Share through a group, not through files. See Teamwork.
