The game is rigged.
by Facebook, Veul explains that many people in the Netherlands left the platform for Instagram — even though Instagram is owned by Facebook.
So after seven months of research and an interview with someone who he says is, arguably, one of the biggest players involved in the Instagram fraud game, Veul had assembled a series of findings that completely upended any well-known knowledge of how this is all executed. "You can buy likes and followers made by a computer by just copying existing profiles," Veul explains before mentioning how the sites promising free followers play into this scheme."They collect these logins and passwords and then they have the power of all these accounts, so with computers and AI, you can control all them together.
"It's like the Wild Wild West. You can have everything you want if you're smart enough or you're willing to pay money for it," Veul says before talking about how he bought some of his own followers for the documentary."There's nothing fake about it, it's just ingenuine... [These followers are] from everywhere around the world. They're real accounts, I just bought them.
