There are so many sellers on the internet who claim to sell genuine Instagram followers and likes to people. Even though there are actually real sellers who sell genuine services to people and companies that need them, most of them today are scammers looking to profit from desperate, unsuspecting Instagram users. These scammers understand how important it is to have a huge following on Instagram and they also know that people will do anything to get ahead, including buying followers and likes. Therefore, they run campaigns, scamming from their hard-earned money and if you are not careful, it is very easy to become one of the victims. Many people have lost their money to these scammers, but the funny thing about it is that people never seem to learn.
Therefore, I will highlight in this article some of the factors you need to keep in mind when you are trying to buy Instagram followers and likes.
Beware of phishing scams
Instagram has been running a rigorous campaign against fly-by-night operations that supply trash accounts, bots, and inactive accounts all of which form the basis of most Instagram followers and likes that people buy. As a result of this crack-down, many of the businesses that engage in these operations have gone out of business. What this does is that it makes it incredibly harder to find an Instagram follower provider that has a good reputation. Finding a reputable seller of these services is like finding a reputable seller of human organs. It is simply a black market and trust is not something you find easily here.
However, despite there being so many scammers in this market, it is still possible to find a supplier with a somewhat good reputation. These are the kinds of sellers you should be looking for if you want to buy Instagram followers.
Decide whether you want to buy in bulk or a daily drip
Most vendors of Instagram followers usually provide their buyer the choice of either receiving all the followers they pay for at once or one by one over a given period of time. If you decide to get all your followers at once, it means that one day you could be having zero followers and the next day you have ten thousand followers. That is very suspicious and Instagram can easily notice what you did and flag your account. You could lose your account for this if Instagram decided to investigate.
If you choose to have the followers trickle in one day at a time, you will create the illusion that you are getting followers naturally and you might actually be able to fool Instagram’s algorithm and even users who don’t choose to look into your account more closely.
Decide if you want to buy additional services while you’re at it
Sellers of Instagram followers sell more services in addition to that. The same way you buy followers, you can also buy likes and comments. Buying the three services gives your account some level of legitimacy, but only if someone doesn’t look more closely.
