Attention! Summary of reasons why Tiktok accounts are blocked and Tiktok stores are blocked

Many friends are operating their own Tiktok accounts, but sometimes they may not be clear about the platform rules. If they violate the regulations, they may face the penalty of account suspension.

The same goes for Tiktok stores. Many cross-border sellers are not clear about the operating rules of Tiktok stores, which will also lead to their accounts being blocked. If they are lucky, they will be blocked for a fixed period of time, and in serious cases, they will be subject to permanent risk control.

Let’s take a look at the reasons why an account may be blocked and find the right remedy.

Tiktok account risk control reasons

1. Content

1. Sharing content that threatens public safety

If you’re going to use TikTok, you need to avoid posting content on the app that incites or promotes any form of violence. Advocating, instructing, or encouraging others to commit violence is grounds for banning on TikTok. This is clearly stated in its community guidelines, which state:

“We don’t allow people to use our platform to threaten or incite violence, or to promote dangerous individuals or organizations. When public safety is threatened or an account is used to promote or glorify violence off-platform, we may suspend or ban the account.

2. Sharing sexually explicit content

Posting content that depicts or promotes sexual exploitation or general nudity may result in you being banned from TikTok. Content that glorifies grooming and other forms of harmful activity involving minors violates TikTok’s community guidelines and may also result in an account being shut down.

3. Posting content that depicts or glorifies self-harm

TikTok does not allow content that depicts or promotes any form of self-harm. Content that promotes suicide, self-harm, and eating disorders will get you kicked off the platform. Similarly, posting content that encourages dangerous activities in a "non-professional environment" is a violation of TikTok's community guidelines. Repeatedly posting content that promotes amateur stunts and other games that could result in injury could get you banned from TikTok.

4. Sharing violent or gory content

If you’re a fan of horror movie clips, you might not be able to accept this, but TikTok prohibits posting or streaming content that is “gratuitously shocking” or “glorifies extreme violence or pain.” This includes gore, such as posting graphic videos of accidents and injuries. This is indeed understandable, as many minors are very active on the platform. Content that depicts harm to humans or animals will be removed, and continued posting of violent content will always result in a permanent ban.

5. Posting content that promotes illegal activities

Posting or streaming videos that promote illegal activities may get you banned from TikTok. This includes posts that depict physical harm, human exploitation, illegal wildlife trade, or acts that violate the law in any way. You also may not share content that instructs people on how to conduct illegal activities. Repeatedly sharing content that promotes the use of guns, drugs, alcohol, and tobacco may also get you banned from TikTok.

6. Blackmail threats

Threatening to hack or scam someone to blackmail them is another way to get your account banned. You can also get banned from TikTok for sharing content that threatens to release other users’ personal information, such as their residential address, private email address, private phone number, bank statement, Social Security number, or passport number.

7. Spam, Impersonation and Misinformation

All forms of spam and fake engagement put your TikTok account at risk of being banned. Sharing content that promotes fake engagement, such as buying or selling views, likes, followers, shares or comments, is also a violation of TikTok's Community Guidelines. Using someone else's details to open a TikTok account with the intent to mislead others can also get you banned.

2. IP and network environment reasons

1. One machine with multiple accounts is absolutely prohibited. If the IP addresses of the accounts are the same, they will be detected by the system, and several accounts may be subject to risk control. The safest way is to use one machine with one account and use an independent IP address.

2. IP is unstable. You may be in the United States one hour ago, but your IP may jump to another country one hour later. It is not good to keep jumping like this. It is easy to be blocked.

So why was TikTok’s store closed?

There are several reasons for this:

① Product reasons: The product does not meet the store category specifications, the products sold are fake, counterfeit, replica, infringing, etc., which makes Tiktok think that your store is abnormal and violates regulations, resulting in the closure of the store

② Content reasons: involving off-site marketing, excessive marketing, diverting traffic to other platforms, violating platform rules, resulting in store closure

③ Inactive store: After registering the store, no products were uploaded, no novice tasks of Tiktok were completed, no corresponding Tiktok account was bound, and no videos of using the yellow car were posted, which led to Tiktok diagnosing it as an idle store and resulting in the closure of the store.

④ Crackdown on bulk registration: Tiktok is cracking down on service providers who register a large number of stores at one time and buy and sell stores, which leads to store closures. This kind of store closure usually involves bulk closures.

The risk control issues of Tiktok accounts and Tiktok stores can be summarized as: IP environment and personal behavior.

You have to pay more attention to your personal behavior. For IP environment, you can try Kookeey's proxy IP, which has one IP per machine.
