I had only just setup my Pinterest for business account. I had not a single pin from me or anyone else. I got my account suspended for spam. They reinstated it quickly. What I think happened. I set my region to us since this is where my visitors are but I am from the UK. So when I went into ads and the set my payment to UK and agreed to the terms I immediately got the email about my account suspension. I think they consider cross region activity to be a spam indicator. Similar to your friends redirection issue.

Hello!
Thanks for this post. Unfortunately I discovered today the issue like in your post mentioned, my Pinterest account disabled of some unknown reason. I have created this account about two months ago and converted from personal to business account a month. Everything went fine and I pined with both, my images and others Pins. But today, I was not able to log in on my account. I didn’t make anything wrong or behaved odd.
Please advise what to do?
Kind regards,
Khalil

My Pinterest account was deactivated and I’ve never posted anything! I sent an email asking why it was deactivated. I got a bs general reply stating that they noticed “spammy activity” that goes against their policy. I have no posts, comments or anything. I simply look at a few recipes or crafts, that’s it.

Pinterest is suspending all accounts personal and business for spam. I think they need to filter their own damn site and block it instead of locking faithful pinners out of their accounts with no responses or resolving the issue. I’m so sad to let Pinterest go but i will not make a new account. People who open new Pinterest accounts beware you will be locked out also.

I experienced the very same Pinterest issues on December 28, 2016 and I have tried to contact Pinterest more than one hundred times over the period of more than one year. Pinterest has never contacted me one single time and I am still froze out of my account and All of my attempts to contact them were articulated in a cordial manner to no avail. The initial attempt to log in resulted in a notification that my pins were spam and that is a total falsehood , but, I now realize that it is probably a redirection issue. How much patience is reasonable before filing a class action lawsuit ?

I have had trouble retrieving over thirty Pinterest that I set up over a year ago, once I did not see my Pinterest accounts, I followed directions given by Pinterest and tried to retrieve them but no luck, afterwards I start seeing some of them showing up in my emails as likes by others to my Pinterest accounts, to this day I havenit recovered my accounts, I never re elves spam or deactivation notice, I am very upset I liked the concept which Pinterest deliveredbutfjnding now maybe I should just deactivate and cancel all my accounts if possible with Pinterest

Hi – Heather from 1001pallets.com – we just got blocked by pinterest too. We want to compile as large of a list as possible of sites that hit a certain threshold and were randomly blocked by pinterest, as this hurts all of the small businesses and readers/contributors to all of our sites/blogs, etc. We’re planning on submitting articles to the associated press. We found this interesting article, and if this is really happening, the only way to fight is to become a LARGE association of victims. You can email me directly at 1001pallets.heatherstiletto@gmail.com if you’re interested in our call to action! Thank you for your time. http://hibusiness.ca/2016/07/27/website-marked-as-spam-on-pinterest-the-mafia-is-doing-it/
