You need official API to send messages at high volume

@AhmedAbo6 What was the message and content, did you first reach out the contacts or reply on their messages? Just curious

AhmedAbo6 commented 1 year ago

@allburov The message was that they signed up on the website. Some of them we had a previous conversion but some we didn't.

Whatsapp's algorithm for identifying unauthorized bots is quite effective. Everything associated with your server, device, location, browser, network, etc. has already been flagged given that you were banned so quickly.

The best approach to utilize this library is to add random delays between interactions and to only reply to chats that weren't initiated by you. One spam report is all it takes for your number to be blocked and your metadata to be flagged. Regardless of whether someone signed up to receive messages, only official WhatsApp business instances are allowed to execute automation via API.

The official API is developed by Meta (Facebook), this project use WhatsApp web in an headless browser, it isn't an API.

After first ban, Meta uses some parameters to ban: IP Address, Message Content, Device Authenticated, etc.

but you don't know what parameter are used, only with official api from business.facebook.com (that you can see why you got ban)
