My Instagram account was suspended twice due to fake copyright claims on my own original content
My name is Rahul Gupta and I am a content creator known as “Ballia wale Rahul Bhaiya”.
I am going through a very serious issue and I genuinely need help and guidance.
I previously had an Instagram page named “Ballia wale Bhaiya” with over 200,000 followers. All the content on that page was completely original — I personally shot and edited every video.
Despite that, my account was suspended due to fake copyright claims on my own content.
I submitted appeals, but I never received any proper resolution. It has now been more than a year, and my account was never restored.
After that, I started again from scratch and created a new page called “Ballia wale Rahul Bhaiya”. I worked hard and rebuilt it to around 75,000 followers.
However, on March 31, I again received a copyright strike on my own original video — even though I still have the full raw footage and proof.
I truly do not understand why this is happening to me repeatedly.
This situation has affected me mentally and financially. Social media was my only source of income, and now I am struggling to continue.
If anyone has faced a similar issue or knows how to resolve false copyright claims on Instagram, please guide me.
I am fully ready to provide proof that the content is mine.
🙏 Any help or support would mean a lot.
