Account verification is one of the most common issues when working with Facebook Ads. It can appear as a request for a photo or video selfie, or a document submission.

Why Facebook Runs a Check

Checks are triggered by suspicious activity or accounts that haven’t been properly warmed up. The goal is simple: confirm you are a real person.

• Recently, video selfies have become more common, as users have learned to bypass photo and document checks. Video selfies are harder to fake, but with the right approach, they can be passed.
• The process usually takes up to two business days. You’ll receive an email with a link to reset your password.
• If the check fails, Facebook may ask you to submit a video selfie again. Do not refuse — skipping the recheck can lead to permanent account loss.

Bypassing Video Selfie Checks

Video verification is relatively new. Without guidance, you can lose accounts. One method uses AI tools like Deep-Live-Cam to generate realistic video.

Step-by-step instructions:

1. Create a video with the AI: move your head and use facial expressions. Make it at least 1 minute long for realism.
2. Save in high quality; avoid repeating verifications.
3. Use a virtual camera (e.g., OBS Studio) to play the recorded video instead of a live feed.
4. Log in via an anti-detect browser or RDP. Set the virtual camera as the primary camera before accessing Facebook.
5. Start verification. Allow camera and microphone access. The check should pass automatically.
6. Continue working with the account until the next verification.

Note: This method worked at the time of writing. Facebook may improve detection, so always re-check current feasibility.

Bypassing Classic Selfie Checks

Sometimes, you’ll see a check with an “Appeal” button. In this case:

1. Ignore the “Appeal” button.
2. Click the arrow next to your avatar → select Check my account.
3. Confirm and click Check my account to start verification.
4. Wait a few minutes and refresh; the next step should begin.
5. Click Start security steps → Next.
6. Complete the captcha.
7. Confirm the code sent to your email.
8. Enter the code, confirm your data, and click Back to Facebook.

This method works for light verifications, especially for high-trust accounts.

Alternatively, you can generate a realistic photo with AI and pass the selfie check by uploading it.

Bypassing Document Checks via Email

If Facebook asks for documents but you want to reduce risks for a high-trust account:

1. Switch to more trusted proxies or VPNs (preferably matching the GEO).
2. Log in and wait for the verification prompt.
3. Look for an option to receive a code via email and accept it.
4. Check your email, get the code, and enter it on Facebook.
5. After confirmation, the account is restored and access is returned.

This approach avoids directly uploading documents and reduces the risk of account blocking.

Tip: Traditional document uploads still exist as a fallback method to pass verification if needed.
