Registration & Account Ban

Why does Facebook block an account right after registration? The algorithms flag it as suspicious if the account violates community standards, the IP doesn’t match the GEO or you created an account and it was banned immediately. To find out why Facebook blocks an account:

  • Check the GEO-IP, fingerprint and first posts.
  • Open facebook.com/profile.php?id=… to be sure the profile is active.
  • If you see “Facebook — your account is blocked”, submit an appeal immediately.

How to log in safely

  • Via cookies (JSON) — reliable and fast (recommended).
  • Via login + password + 2FA code — backup option.
Cookie-Editor guide (importing cookies)
  1. Go to facebook.com and open the Cookie-Editor extension.
  2. Click Delete All to clear current cookies.
  3. Click Import and paste the string from our order (starts with [{"domain":".facebook.com" …}).
  4. Click Import again — a success message will appear.
  5. Refresh Facebook — you will be logged in automatically.

Extra tips:

  • Don’t open Ads Manager right after login.
  • Let the account “rest” for 10–30 minutes.
  • Don’t attach a card instantly — imitate normal user activity first.

Business Manager: Limits & Unblocking

A new BM starts with a $50 limit. If you need a higher cap, consider BM 250 $+ accounts. You can raise the limit organically by increasing daily spend gradually and passing verification. If you get a disabled Business Manager status or a BM error, send a ticket with KYC docs. Beginners should understand what Business Manager is and how it protects Pages, Pixels and payment methods.

Proxies & IP: Avoiding Bans

Why use mobile proxies if datacenter IPs are cheaper? “Clean” 4G IPs minimise cases where Facebook bans you right after logging in from a new IP. Use mobile SOCKS5 proxies (one IP / 5–15 min rotation) or large rotating proxy pools.

Payment Cards & Billing

Choose P2P-friendly cards — these specialised arbitrage cards have the right BIN-GEO. Errors like “payment method declined” and hold balance Facebook appear when the BIN mismatches or spend spikes too quickly. Follow the checklist “how to warm cards” to avoid why cards get blocked for arbitrage.

Facebook ↔ Instagram Linking

You can link a Facebook and Instagram account in “Accounts Center → Add”. Need to unlink? Click “Remove” there. After linking, switch to an Instagram business account and launch ads from Ads Manager.

Profile Recovery / Deletion

Restore a Facebook account via “Account Quality → Request Review”.
To delete an account, download your archive and confirm via SMS; you have 30 days to undo.

Errors 902 / 906 / 957 & Fixes

  • Error 902 — suspicious activity; change the password and upload a selfie.
  • Error 906 — billing conflict; remove the “bad” card and add a new one.
  • Error 957 — GEO mismatch. If the ad account is disabled, log in from the correct IP and unblock it.

Glossary: PZRD, Autoreg, Farming

PZRD accounts — fully verified profiles.
Autoreg — an automatically registered account.
Farming — manually “warming” a fresh profile to build trust.

Account Warming: Timelines & Checklists

Below is a basic warming timeline; an extended checklist is available in PDF.

  1. Day 1 — likes, feed browsing.
  2. Day 2 — +5 friends, 1 comment.
  3. Day 3 — create a Fan Page.
  4. Day 4 — draft a white campaign ($2/day).

Antidetect Browsers & Profiles: Setup

The best antidetect browser is Dolphin {Anty}. Alternatives: AdsPower, Incogniton, Indigo, Octo.
Requirements: unique Canvas/WebGL, WebRTC leak off, correct FB fingerprint.

Meta Policies: Forbidden Content & Typical Rejections

Study the Meta Ads policies: forbidden content and avoid prohibited Facebook content.
Typical rejections involve nutra, gambling, adult or crypto topics.

Fan Page, Pixel & Events: Minimal Must-Have

  • Fan Page with Page Quality > 4.
  • Install Facebook Pixel via Events Manager.
  • CAPI + Lead / Purchase events — a must-have Pixel setup.

Contacting Meta Support: Script & Screenshots

Fill out the Facebook contact form in Business Help, attach screenshots and the ready-made appeal script — this speeds up the reply.

Scaling: Renting vs Buying Accounts

If spend is under $1 000/day it’s cheaper to rent accounts; above $5 000/day it’s better to buy Facebook accounts.

KYC / AML & High-Spend Risks

Meta requests KYC for Facebook Ads when daily spend exceeds $2 000.
Prepare the required KYC documents or risk a Facebook balance freeze; this is part of AML compliance.

Security: Phishing, 2FA & Access

Enable 2FA for Facebook Business and use a hardware key (YubiKey).
When handing over access, assign Editor / Advertiser roles to protect Business Manager from phishing.
