I have been using TwitterDub for since July 27th and until 3 days ago my accounts ran just fine aside from the stray verify phone number here and there which I handled using 5sim, I have 90 accounts and 25 of those the main accounts (mothers) that the other 70 (children) are retweeting and following, I made them all like retweet and follow the main 25 accounts over a period of about a month so that they don't appear as obvious bots, and lately after they are all cross followed between all the accounts I have started more heavily retweeting and liking the mother accounts each tweet the mother accounts made got about 7-15 retweets from the children accounts as well as from the mother accounts, all seemed well and impressions and followers grew nicely until yesterday 31 Aug the accounts started getting password reset requests (due to twitter claiming suspicious activity or login attempts), without having an email per account that made them locked, meaning only twitter support can help here. so in essence these accounts were practically blocked for me.
The next day (1st Sept) I started making emails for the mother accounts, and deleting and inaccessible phone numbers from those accounts.
Emails were setup for the 25 mother accounts and after some time couple of them started requesting password changes too, those went smoothly thanks to the emails, but later again they started asking for phone verification too. at that point I decided to turn off all actions and give the accounts a rest until I can manage to get my hands on some SIM cards to solve PV issue, below you can see the account errors I had in TwitterDub:
One thing that bothered me is that in the emails it showed 12 login attempts (the other accounts hand similar amount with time intervals of 2 mins between login attempts) before twitter deciding to lock the accounts and demand password change.
Here you can see the emails that piled up due to twitter claiming suspicious login attempts:
all accounts had proxies, been using 50 proxies for the 90 accounts some of them sharing a proxy, although this didn't make any issues in the early days of those accounts, also all accounts were created between 27th July and 8th Aug, they were all used lightly at first starting from 10-15 follows 20-30 likes and retweets and daily incremented to a max of 115 follows, 200 likes, 80 retweets, 24 tweets(only tweeted max of 10 per day) and 100 unfollows, also one action per account is enabled.
So I am wondering is it due to my wrong use of TwitterDub or is it something else? below you can see the actions I've setup for all the accounts, my mother accounts were posting from a collection of 1k+ scraped tweets once every ~2h, all accounts were following accounts scraped from tag searches about 10-20 follows(with retweets and likes as pre actions 30% and 40%) per period of ~1h repeating every ~2h, as well as liking(with preactions of follow 10% and retweet 20%) at about at about 15-20 per account period of ~50min repeat at ~80m and all accounts were also unfollowing 15-25 accounts for a period of 5-30min every ~3h
I also noticed from 30th Aug some accounts started getting error 403 when trying to do a daily stats action here is a snippet of it:

Any suggestions on what I can improve? limits or anything else?
