Why am I required to do this?
You are one of 0.22% of active players currently flagged for unusual or suspicious activity. This means for the time being, your account will be under additional scrutiny and you'll need to complete captchas like this on a regular basis.
How long will this last for?
On the first occurrence this period generally lasts for between three and ten days. If irregular activity continues to be observed from your account, it may persist indefinitely and your account will be manually reviewed for any rule violations.
What did I do to cause this?
We monitor players and their sessions for any unusual or suspicious markers that make them outliers when compared to others in Torn. We're not able to disclose exactly what caused your account to be flagged, but your account's activity has appeared unusual enough to become a concern for us.
How can I avoid being flagged in the future?
Why are you doing this?
Ensuring a fair and equal environment for all of our players is of significant concern to us. Everyone needs to be on an even playing field and we have no tolerance for any kind of cheating. If we detect any unusual activity that may possibly be exploitative, it's our duty to our playerbase to take action against it.
But I haven't done anything wrong!
We sincerely apologise if you believe you have been wrongly flagged, we understand that being hindered due to a 'false positive' can be an upsetting and frustrating experience. Unfortunately this system is a necessary evil in order to ensure Torn remains fair and equal for all. We cannot be 100% accurate all of the time, and unusual activity that is legitimate may occasionally flag accounts. We're frequently reviewing the system and making constant iterations to improve its accuracy. While we can't change the status of accounts that have been flagged, we'd really welcome your feedback after you've fully read this FAQ. Please send a message to our community manager bogie [148747] or alternatively our AI specialist Kopites [1701371].

You probably did something that made it appear you had multiple accounts. You're not allowed to have multiple accounts in this game. Did anyone give you a substantial amount of money recently? If they did, that could appear to be an account feeding your account randomly indicating that you're a multi. Or there could be other reasons, that's just the first thought that comes to mind, generally it's something to do with multis.

Edit: Could be the faction you're in, looks a little bit like a faction of multis. But I don't really know, just guessing here.

There are few reason that can happen to you. Assuming that u are not using illegal scripts, it probably happen because of stuff like refreshing pages a lot, clicking things too fast or being active for the long duration etc. If you keep doing the captcha, it will disappear in few days.

He’s required to validate, that means the system thinks he’s using a bot program to play without playing. Why would validation provide any kind of barrier to playing on multiple accounts?

It'll last a few days.

No one really knows what causes it, otherwise the people it's meant to find will know how to dodge it. I've been flagged before too, it's a pain, but a necessary evil. It doesn't last too long.

Happens to me when I have a VPN running, could be your issue. My network provider blocked torn for a bit and I used a VPN to access which tripped the bot detector just a week or two ago.
