The Instagram Purge is Back!
Instagram has had enough of all you frauds out there!!
If you are a person who buys fake likes, followers and comments for your insta, you're in for a rude awakening because over the next few days Instagram will doing a fraud purge.
Instagram put out a statement saying they have noticed a lot of people have been using third party apps to boost their popularity. Therefore, starting today they are going to be remove those "inauthentic" likes.
“Recently, we’ve seen accounts use third-party apps to artificially grow their audience.Every day people come to Instagram to have real experiences, including genuine interactions. It is our responsibility to ensure these experiences aren’t disrupted by inauthentic activity.” Instagram wrote in a recent blog post.
Apparently they are building this high tech machine that will help them detect these kinds of things.
I never understood why people feel the need to buy likes just for the appearance of looking popular and well liked. Does it make them feel better about themselves? Does it boost their self esteem? Well, all I know is that a lot of people are about to get exposed!
