The company blocks and bans the user number when a user of a WhatsApp account engages in spam, frauds, or other violations of the platform’s Terms of Service. In August, almost 2.3 million Indian accounts were banned, according to WhatsApp’s monthly user safety report.
However, accounts can occasionally be suspended unintentionally or when users inadvertently violate the privacy policy. Therefore, it is always advised to exercise caution when exchanging messages and media using WhatsApp. Additionally, WhatsApp has provided some crucial advice that will stop user accounts from being banned.
Avoid these 5 things
- If you are unsure of the message’s authenticity or the source of its support, don’t forward it. As of right now, WhatsApp only allows up to five chats to be sent at once. Users can forward messages to a maximum of five chats, including one group, if they have already been forwarded.
- Always respect limits and respect for privacy. Users should never be added to groups they do not want to be in. Additionally, don’t message someone if they ask you not to. If the other user reports you many times, WhatsApp may eventually block your account.
- Refrain from breaking WhatsApp’s terms of service. Never spread untrue information or act in an unlawful, threatening, or harassing manner. All of the user guidelines are listed in WhatsApp’s “Acceptable Use of Our Services” section.
- The use of broadcast lists for sending messages should be kept to a minimum. People may report your communications if you frequently send broadcast messages. Additionally, WhatsApp will ban your account if it receives multiple reports about it.
- Avoid sending automated or mass messages because you risk being flagged as a spammer. According to sources, WhatsApp uses machine learning technology and user reports to identify and prohibit accounts that send spam messages.
