Got banned for using Tinder bot, did Tinder make 2020 updates?
Hey all,
New to the community here; last night I tried logging into a new Tinder account and matching with people in my get_recommendations(), using the Tinder token I got from phone_auth_token.py. Everything was working as expected at the moment; this morning I opened Tinder and got a ban message (included a screenshot). Anybody else encounter this? Don't know if Tinder's made any new updates or something...
Thanks!
What was your history like? Did you ever get rate-limited? Any other clues? Is your phone a voip number? I too have noticed subtle changes on their backend for the last couple weeks/months, but nothing related to this.
Oh, interesting... no it was a completely new account, and the phone is a legitimate phone number, though perhaps that particular Facebook account/phone number may have had history with Tinder before? I will try with a new Facebook account/phone number and see if that fixes the problem.
Do you guys have any way to get Phone-Numbers for Tinder, since Im out of real Phone-numbers.
use something like twilio to get lots of simcards. Tinder usually doesn't allow voip numbers but you can get physical phone numbers if you buy simcards in bulk. This is usually easiest in poorer countries, countries like USA really suck but its still doable
Are you guys also getting more Facebook accounts too? Getting more Facebook accounts also seems like a hassle in itself.. also have you guys noticed any patterns in why Tinder is banning accounts, I usually experiment a few things here and there but not sure which particular thing I did that caused me to get banned. Thanks!
im sure tinder/co is watching this and all other repos that are made for scraping their api. in fact this thread might be a op in itself, haha. You can see Tinder is tracking things in the web requests like deviceID and such. Did you guys know you can get free tinder gold if you are attractive enough? I made a super attractive female profile and it got tinder gold within an hour. Usually the accounts get banned before getting to that point though because too many people flag it. They can probably look at the relationships between log in times, requests, and the api calls to guess whether an account is legit or not. I thought of a new theory. Maybe when you first create the account create it from the phone app (you can continually reset your phone to change deviceID), this way it doesn't look as suspicious as creating directly from the webapp. Then when you login in you can just use the webapp. Also don't just mass swipe yes or no depending on counters and stuff. Randomize it and make sure to always swipe left on ads and troll profiles. Part of this is easier if you have some way to detect whether there is a face in the image.
also another thing I realized is I'm pretty sure Tinder is using AWS Rekognition to detect duplicate profiles / images. I am currently working on a way to use adversarial networks and magic pixels to have a methodical way to not have duplicates. It will probably take a couple weeks or months.
Guys, I've open-sourced my own library written on Java where you can find all basic requests including authorization and registration via SMS: https://github.com/RMatushkin/tinder-api There you can find actual endpoints for 2020.
