Hello guys,

I got this error for every 2 days. I am using my account for login stuff.

Do you guys any idea to disable out it?

Thanx

Do you see a message similar to "Help Us Confirm You Own This Account. To secure your account, you need to request help logging in." after successful login?

Me too, but even if I change the password, I still get the message.

Me too, I am facing "Help us.." etc issue as @bilmiyore mentioned above. After changing the password, it is working the next two/three days. Then it is happening again.

Note: using socs5 proxy as well.

This happens in every 2-3 days for many many accounts... Any idea why?

My best guess is that when we generate devices id's before login. it tries to create a device and makes Instagram think that the request is coming from an actual physical device. But, if we keep doing it on every post publish, and try to use any kind of web service like AWS Lambda to handle the task. Instagram might get suspicious about the incoming requests. Think of it in this manner, you might get blocked if you keep changing your IP address using VPN and keep posting images from a different regions with different IP address, you might get locked out as the system will consider you as an attacker.
