A VK page has been blocked forever, how can I find out the reasons and restore it?

“We have detected suspicious activity...” - the essence and reason for the freeze

Usually we can encounter the message in question when going to our page or when going to the page of another VK user.

Such freezing is performed by Vkontakte robots in an automated manner, and can be caused by the following factors.

Typically, the functionality of a social network, as can be seen above, in addition to the message about the freezing of a page, gives the reason for the freezing (spamming, suspicious activity on the site and other factors).

Let's figure out how to get rid of the message about the temporary blocking of your page in VK.

Why can a community be banned?

A community, just like a personal account, can be banned temporarily or permanently. There is no clear distinction between these types of bans. It all depends on the nature of the offense and aggravating or mitigating circumstances.

The reasons for blocking may be the following:

• A sharp change in the topic and nature of published content. There are situations when the management of a public site changes the topic of the community and the nature of the published content. The fact is that existing subscribers initially subscribed to content of a certain nature and its constant updating. A sharp change in topic implies deception of these subscribers, since in the future content will be published that they did not subscribe to. Most often, this results in a temporary ban, but if the administration has suspicions about the sale of the community, then it can be blocked forever.
• Violation of the rights of third parties. For example, you published material without the consent of the copyright holder of this material. If there are such complaints, the community may be temporarily blocked.
• The group was included in the Roskomnadzor register. This includes communities in which prohibited goods are published or advertised: anabolic steroids and other drugs with similar effects, weapons and gambling (including bookmakers). In this case, the ban is given forever.
• Cheat subscribers. If you misuse or abuse services and programs for automatically increasing subscribers, you can easily arouse suspicion and get a permanent ban. This also includes boosting any other activity (likes, reposts, views, comments, etc.).
• Distribution or advertising of services that allow you to artificially increase activity counters (likes, subscribers, reposts, comments, views, etc.).
• Personal insult. If there are complaints from users, the community is temporarily blocked.
• Spam on behalf of the community or using spam to advertise your public is also prohibited by the site rules. Most often, the public is temporarily frozen for spam, but if you abuse or regularly violate the rules of the site, you can get banned without the possibility of further recovery.
• Violation of other site rules and provisions of the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Unblock via SMS

The first and easiest way to unfreeze on VKontakte is to unblock the page using SMS.

To do this you need:

1. At the very bottom of the lock screen, enter your phone number (usually it is there by default).
2. Click on the "Get code" button.

   

   Enter your number and click on “Get code”

3. A code will be sent to your phone, which you will need to enter in the appropriate field.
4. After entering the code, access to your page will be restored and you will be able to use the capabilities of VK.

Is it possible to unblock a page if the rules are violated before the specified period?

You can restore your VK page. If the account was frozen for the first time, it is enough to confirm it using your phone number. Repeated blocking will be accompanied by time restrictions on access. Temporary blocking is given for a reason. By doing this, the administration is trying to influence users by showing that violation of the rules is punishable, and therefore gives time for people to think about their behavior.

On the Internet you can find dozens of evidence and ways that you can return access to the page before the time specified by the administration. But that's not true. You will be able to access the page only after time has passed. The specific period is indicated by the administrators of the social network, and it may vary.

Important!

Do not use third-party services to unlock your account ahead of time. Most often they are paid - this suggests that the service is owned by scammers with the goal of making money by deceiving users. Even if the service is free, it cannot work; this is not provided for by the social network itself. This way you can transfer account data to scammers without receiving the long-awaited unlocking.

Disable suspicious browser extensions

If you have recently installed any new extension (add-on) to your web browser, and soon encountered the “We have detected suspicious activity” notification, then we recommend disabling (uninstalling) the specified extension.

For this:

1. Go to your browser settings.
2. Find the extensions section there.
3. Deactivate (uninstall) the problematic extension.

We also recommend clearing your browser's cache and cookies. For example, in Mozilla Firefox this is done by going to the settings, selecting the “Privacy and Security” section. There, find the subsection “Cookies and site data”, and click on the “Delete data” button on the right - “Delete”.

How long does it take to freeze a VKontakte page?

The blocking period is always different, it depends on how often the user is caught violating the rules, and also takes into account the severity of his actions. Those who screw up for the first time are frozen for a day.

In general, the moderator can impose sanctions for up to 3 days. For repeated violations, a block is set for up to 2 weeks or the page is blocked for life .

Setting up VKontakte security will help you improve the protection of your account and reduce the risk of remaining frozen forever.

If the page is unavailable not because of complaints, but because of suspicious activity (blocked automatically by the system), then there can be many violations. Gradually, the term will only increase, but exact punishments have not been established; in each case, the decision is made individually.

Change DNS server addresses

In some cases, incorrect addresses of the provider's DNS servers may cause a message to appear about the detection of strange activity on the Vkontakte social network and temporary freezing of the page. To fix this, we will need to change the DNS addresses of the servers to public ones from Google.

Do the following:

1. Click on Win+R and enter ncpa.cpl there

   

2. On the screen that opens, move the cursor over the current Internet connection, press the right key of your pointer, and select “Properties”;
3. In the list of components, find “IPv4” and double-click on it with the left mouse button;

   

4. In the window that opens, activate the “Use DNS server addresses” option and set their values ​​as in the image below:

   

5. Save the result and restart your PC. After this, log into VK, the message “your page has been temporarily frozen” may disappear.

How to prevent a person from writing

How to add a person to an emergency (black list) through his page

1. Go to the person’s page and in the left column, under the main photo, find a button with three dots (menu) - . Click on it and a menu will open.

• Select the “Block” (for example, “Block Bad”). Click on it. From now on, this person will not be able to write messages to you and will not be able to view your page.
• The word “Block” will immediately change to “Unblock” - this means that the person is blocked. The second press removes the lock as if nothing had happened.

Of course, nothing else will change for this VKontakte user. He will use the site the same as before, communicate with people - in short, he will still have all the opportunities, but he will not be able to:

• Write messages to you (trying to send a message, he will see the message “You cannot send a message to this user because he limits the circle of people who can send him messages.”).
• View your page.

Use this function carefully and only as a last resort, when someone has really annoyed you, because sometimes you can block someone and forget about it. And you can accidentally block a friend - undoubtedly, he will be at a loss.

And also keep in mind that a blocked person can create a new VK page to try to get in touch with you again. Then you will have to block this page, and in especially severe cases, complain about the person to the VKontakte administration.

You can see everyone you've ever blocked. Click “My Settings” and then select the “Black List” tab - all the people you have blocked will be there. By the way, you can block someone there without going to their page:

How to block someone who blocked me (blacklist by name)

Go to his page in the full version of VK, it will say “. restricted access to my page." In the left column, click “Actions”, a menu will open, then “Block”.

There is another way - you can add him to your blacklist by name or by link to the page.

1. Open “Settings” and select the “Black List” tab.
2. Enter the person's name or a link to their page (there is a hint in the place where you should enter this).
3. Click the “Add to blacklist” button.
4. If there is only one person with this name, he will be immediately blocked - the message “User has been added to the blacklist” will appear.
5. If there are several such people, a list of them will appear, and next to each person there will be a link “Add to ban list.” Click this link next to the person you want to block.
6. In order to unblock a person, use the “Remove from list” link next to each blocked user on the same “Black List” tab.

How to freeze your VKontakte page?

What to do if the game page is blocked?

Some game authors know that such situations are possible, and allow you to transfer the game to another VK page (with the preservation of everything invested and won). Usually they require you to first contact VK support and ask if it is possible to restore the blocked page. Then the game authors want to see screenshots of your correspondence with VK support, where they tell you that the page cannot be restored. After that, they can transfer the game to the page you specify. To clarify all this, contact the authors (developers) of your game directly. Look for contact information in the game itself.
