Is buying Instagram followers a crime in India?


16-Jun-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Hello sir, I am 19 years old, living in Delhi. I am buying Instagram followers to impress my friends but one of my friend's father who is in law enforcement told me that buying fake followers can be a crime and I should not do it. Is it true that buying fake followers on Instagram and Facebook is a crime? Can I go to jail for the same? I had no idea it is a crime.

No. Buying Instagram followers is not illegal. If you are buying Instagram followers, you are not doing anything against the law. This is why many Instagram influencers and bloggers purchase followers to boost their follower count. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.
