Stuck in Instagram “Action Required: Account Locked” loop (7 times in 2 days) – anyone else??
Hi everyone,
I’m having a really frustrating issue with Instagram and I’m hoping someone here has experienced this or knows what’s going on.
I keep receiving the email:
“Action Required: Your Instagram Account Has Been Locked”
Every time, I’m forced to reset my password. The problem is… it’s happening over and over again.
👉 This has happened 7 times in the past 2 days. It’s literally a loop.
What’s weird is that this started right after I downloaded the Threads app. I’ve already deleted Threads yesterday, but the issue is still happening.

What I’ve done so far:
- Changed password multiple times
- Contacted support with no solution

Questions:
- Has anyone experienced this loop before and how did you solve it??
- Were you still using the account/posting?
- Could it be related to Threads or account security flags?
- Is there anything else I can do to stop this?
This is getting really disruptive, so any help or insight would be appreciated 🙏
Thanks!
