Hey guys, just wanted to share a quick tip since I've seen a lot of people struggling with IG verification lately.

If you're trying to set up a burner or a private account and keep getting blocked, it’s probably because Instagram's 2026 AI is flagging your email domain. Most "free" sites are totally blacklisted now.

I’ve been testing a few options and found that using a high-quality Temp Mail for Instagram[https://www.tempemail.cc/blog/temp-mail-for-instagram] (specifically from tempemail.cc) actually works. The codes arrive in like 10 seconds.

Pro-tip: Use your phone's 5G instead of a VPN when signing up—it helps bypass the "Phone Verification" trap. Hope this helps someone save a few hours of frustration!
