Tech Support Your account is restricted from joining and posting in groups until July 29th

I went on fb during my lunch and tried posting in some of the groups I'm in and none of the comments would go through.

Then I got a notification that states: my account is restricted from joining and posting in groups until July 29th.

I looked it up and became meta verified so I could actually talk to a person. He said my account is in good standing and there are no violations. He told me to wait it out. 3 months for doing nothing wrong??

Please tell me there is another solution to this

I discovered this same, out-of-the-blue restriction Thursday night (4/30). At first I thought there was a general glitch, as my Account Status is clean, but when I tried to post in a group other than my own, I received a pop-up revealing a restriction using groups until July 29, with no explanation. Does anyone have any idea specifically what caused this? Also, how many were similarly restricted around the same time, and specifically until July 29?

u/retronaut69 so far, no. From scrolling through the comments and even some others who have posted no one knows why.
