Users need accounts to work online. At the same time, some users create dozens or hundreds of accounts for their own purposes. In this article, we'll look at what multiaccounting is, who needs it, whether it's legal, and most importantly, how to avoid being blocked for multiaccounting. ![Relieved face :relieved: 😌](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f60c.png)
For example, if we are talking about social networks, then one user can create several accounts to run ads from them. If we talk about bookmakers, users can collect welcome bonuses from different accounts or bypass the blocking of the original account for violations of the service's rules.
Bypassing blockages.
If a user has their account blocked for violating the platform's rules, they can try to circumvent the restrictions by creating new accounts.
Increase in revenue.
For example, since arbitrageurs most often work with dozens of advertisers and partner networks at once, they need as many accounts as possible to run ads. Additional accounts will also help you make sure that the original account is blocked.
Working with different geos
This is often necessary to run ads in social networks or search engines. For example, if an agency works with clients from different countries, they may need these countries ' accounts to run ads. In addition, some users create foreign accounts to reduce the amount of tax paid from launching ads: different countries apply different taxation.
Bonus Hunting.
When registering new accounts, some services issue a welcome bonus. For example, this can be found in betting and gambling. Users create additional accounts to receive these bonuses.
Cryptoplatforms and crypto exchanges.
Multiaccounting is often used during the opening of sales of new tokens (token sales) on various platforms. For example, on the Coinlist платформе platform.
The fact is that at such initial sales, the number of tokens sold is limited, while tokens are sold at initial and favorable prices. If the demand for a particular token is higher than the supply, the buyer's choice may occur randomly. Accordingly, the more accounts users have, the higher the chances of getting tokens.
Other users use multiaccounting to maintain their anonymity and simultaneously work with several crypto wallets. For example, popular centralized crypto exchanges ask the user for their real passport data when registering a wallet.
Moreover, in April 2022, the popular Binance crypto exchange introduced a restriction for Russian users: if the amount of assets exceeds 10,000 euros, users can only withdraw funds, but they cannot sell or sell cryptocurrency. Moreover, according to Reuters, the crypto exchange transmitted data to Russian government agencies about the owners of wallets. The crypto exchange denied the latest news, but it will find out in court.
Just to protect their data and circumvent restrictions, users create accounts in the names of other people.
Bookmakers offices.
Multiaccounting is needed for example for:
Parsing is the automated collection of data on a network. You can use parsers to collect contacts from the site, prices, content, user data, and so on.
However, the legislation of each country regulates the collection of such information in its own way. For example, in Russia, according to the law, it is impossible to collect personal data of users without their consent. Because of this, site security systems may block parsers. To prevent the same user from trying to collect data again, security algorithms can remember the IP address and data of the device that was parsed from, in order to block their data in the future.
When creating accounts with different data, you can continue to parse information despite the restrictions.
For working in social networks
Multiaccounting is needed to:
More lenient measures: the service can request additional data, temporarily freeze the account, reduce the amount of the coefficient if we are talking about bookmakers, etc. Specific measures depend on which platform violations were committed on.
️Shared
These criteria are used by all anti-fraud systems. These include:
️Individual
These are criteria that not all systems can use.
For example:
Proxy
When you visit any resource, the site detects your IP address. If it is the same for all accounts, the site's security systems will understand that the accounts are created by the same person. Anti-fraud systems will automatically link accounts and then block them.
You can use a proxy to change your IP address to impersonate users from different countries.
Anti-detect browser.
Since IP address spoofing is used even by ordinary users, anti-fraud systems have long been analyzing users by additional criteria. Antidect browser is a program that changes your real digital fingerprint (fingerprint) so that you can impersonate another user. Moreover, you can use it to work with different accounts from the same device and from the same browser window.
Data for registering a new user
For each account, you will need to select your full name, contact details, and payment card (if required).
Moreover, since some anti-fraud systems have enhanced methods for checking users: sudden requests for photos or video calls, when creating accounts, you need to take into account what data you use and who accounts are issued for.
If you have not previously used anti-detect browser, you can test it in the 4-day free period and continue working on the free tariff with a limit of 10 browser profiles.

What is multiaccounting?
Multiaccounting is the simultaneous operation of a user in several accounts of the same site or service.For example, if we are talking about social networks, then one user can create several accounts to run ads from them. If we talk about bookmakers, users can collect welcome bonuses from different accounts or bypass the blocking of the original account for violations of the service's rules.
What is multiaccounting used for?
This depends on the specific field of activity. Most often, multiaccounting is used for the following purposes::Bypassing blockages.
If a user has their account blocked for violating the platform's rules, they can try to circumvent the restrictions by creating new accounts.

Bookmakers offices.
Multiaccounting is needed for example for:
- Re-receiving welcome bonuses.
- Forkworkers. Forks are opposite bets in bookmakers on the same event. As a rule, forks are found in different bookmakers, but sometimes they can be found in the same office.
- Continue working with a specific bookmaker's office. For example, if the original account is blocked or their odds are reduced due to violations of certain rules.

![Red triangle pointed up :small_red_triangle: 🔺](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f53a.png)
Multiaccounting is needed to:
- Run ads from multiple accounts at once. For example, marketers, targetologists, and arbitrageurs.
- Post reviews or write comments on behalf of different users. For example, to improve your online reputation or attract attention to a particular topic.
- Bypass account blockages. Social networks closely monitor their users and struggle with multiaccounting. This is due to the fact that if a person has several accounts, it is not clear for what purposes this is necessary. For example, a person may try to run illegal ads or influence the opinion of users by publishing positive reviews about a product that does not actually meet these qualities. Some social networks can immediately block the entire chain of accounts, while others analyze the user more closely and block him in case of violations.
What are the penalties for multiaccounting?
The most stringent measure is to block your account without the ability to access or withdraw funds. Such measures can be applied, for example, by bookmakers in relation to forks, crypto platforms or social networks, in case of launching illegal advertising.More lenient measures: the service can request additional data, temporarily freeze the account, reduce the amount of the coefficient if we are talking about bookmakers, etc. Specific measures depend on which platform violations were committed on.
How do sites understand that a user has multiple accounts?
Conventionally, all user evaluation criteria can be divided into two groups: general and individual.![Black medium-small square :black_medium_small_square: ◾](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/25fe.png)
These criteria are used by all anti-fraud systems. These include:
- Contact and personal data used: Full name, date of birth, phone number, email, etc.
- Fingerprint— a set of depersonalized data about your device, connection, and browser. For example, the browser type and version, the operating system, the amount of RAM, the number of ports, etc. The combination of such data forms a unique digital fingerprint, which antifraud systems link to each user. Each anti-fraud system collects a different amount of data: for obvious reasons, none of the services publishes it.
- IP addresses of users. When creating an account, anti-fraud systems see where and from which IP address the account was created. If this IP address appears for some other account, then each antifraud system has its own criteria for analyzing users.
- Cookie data. For example, what sites and resources the user visits.
- Payment method. For example, matching card or wallet data can automatically link accounts.
![Black medium-small square :black_medium_small_square: ◾](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/25fe.png)
These are criteria that not all systems can use.
For example:
- Memorizing the user's behavior pattern. For example, in bookmakers, these may be individual-specific bets.
- Spontaneous user checks. For example, video calls when you can see that the user is logged in to the account, or a sudden request to send a selfie in a certain position or angle.
