🚫 1. WhatsApp Number Ban / Account Flagged

What you may experience

• Number banned after sending multiple messages

• Even long‑term personal numbers can be restricted

• Worried your number is “marked as sensitive”

Why this happens

WhatsApp uses machine learning anti‑spam detection. The rules are not publicly shared, and once triggered, no software provider can reverse the ban.
