On October 8th, 2023, I received a first warning from Fiverr, cautioning me not to send messages to other users to promote or offer one of my Fiverr Gigs, services, or websites. Since I had not engaged in such activity, I requested Customer Support (CS) to provide me with the specific message in question. A few days later, they responded, informing me that the 

 and had been successfully removed from my account. They also confirmed that my account currently does not have any active warnings. 

Again, on November 5th, 2023, I received another first warning from Fiverr, indicating that my account had been flagged for purchasing or selling with the intent to falsely increase ratings and/or levels. As I had not been involved in such actions, I asked CS to point out the specific instance in question. Once more, a few days later, they replied, stating that the 

 and had been successfully removed from my account. They reiterated that my account currently does not have any active warnings. 

However, despite the removal of these two false first warnings, my main gig was de-ranked, and I observed a significant decrease in impressions, as illustrated in the graph I shared. The blue columns represent the impressions of my main gig, the yellow columns represent the clicks, and the red line represents the dates I received warnings. 

Even though the warnings were lifted, the negative effects persist

I am facing penalties for actions I did not commit

. I sincerely hope to regain the previous level of order activity soon.
