I've been using aged personal Facebook accounts for black-hat diet advertising for years now. This was always working well, untill last year when Facebook started introducing the daily spending limits for 'new' Facebook accounts. At the beginning of these daily spending limit, the limits were around €171 ($200?), but since a few weeks, most accounts have by default a €44 ($50?) daily spending limit. When you start a campaign with a higher daily budget, Facebook literally shows a warning saying that because this is a new ad account, you'll need to run ads that comply with their policy for at least a few weeks.
After doing some research I found out that Facebook Business accounts are the way to go. From what I've been told, is that these business accounts don't have any spending limit, which is exactly what I need. The only problem is, when you want to create a Facebook Business account, you'll have to provide all kinds of official documents that prove that you're the real owner/representive of that company. I can make one or two accounts on my own business, but I'd like to farm these business accounts, and thats where things become tricky. Doing black-hat advertising in Facebook is acceptable, but creating fake company documents which I can use for creating Facebook business accounts is one step too far.
Does anyone have experience into farming Facebook Business accounts?
Can you teach me how to farm Facebook Business accounts?
Or does anyone know where to buy ready to use business accounts?
Any help would be much appreciated!
I doubt anyone that is doing this successfully will reveal how to do it in a public forum. I can point you in the right direction though.
Farming accs whether it is personals or BMs is not worth it anymore. The algo is so good right now that it knows if an account is 'real' or 'farmed' no matter the amount of daily activity (to mimic a real user that have been on FB for years) you incorporate. If you can read in between the lines and think out of the box you will get access to more BMs you can handle (which have no limits in place - well most of them) and use for your BH campaigns.
Would love to know as well

So... you don't really farm these accounts, you get them from agencies. You can send me a PM if need more info.
Farming still works, your setup and strategy just gotta be right. Official documents and business verification are only needed for specific features and campaigns (like politics).
There are many ways to get accounts, if farmed accounts works well for you then great, but at least from what I see, more people are shifting to other types of accounts since farmed ones aren't doing the job for them anymore. I can't speak for all verticals, but generally speaking what you want is rental accounts, using his/her CC and preferably his/her connection. On average, you'd still hit a wall around 5K spend per account, but its not impossible to spend 30K+ per account, just need to be smart. However, if you are really looking to do big numbers, you should consider agency options.
What are all the factors you need to keep multiple accounts? is it just the following:
1) borrow FB account from friend/family and open up an ad account
2) Use spouse/family credit card to pay the traffic source
3) Use another laptop/device to run the other account
Am i missing anything or is there any other ways for facebook to track you down?
So this sounds like not much has changed since I did this full time back in 2014/2015 then. Find someone willing to rent their ad account out, set up an RDP, have them download teamviewer or something similar, I go in, set up the BM, ad account and page, run some little Clean Spend for awhile, then start cloaking. Does this sound about right? The only issue I think I would have is the CC's in the matching geo from a local reputable bank.
But what should we do when it comes to the point Facebook asks to verify the company? Is it necessary that the company/documents (LLC) are on the name of the BM owner? And is it essential when the LLC would not be in the same location as the BM owner??
Instead of business accounts, try setting up facebook accounts on proxies. You will have one account each, but you can gradually grow them over a period of time to look natural. And you can have a few farmed business accounts too if you can find "business partners" in different addressses.
