This phone number has already been used too many times.

ttt -  

Hi everyone,

I recently created a new Gmail account and now it’s asking for phone authentication, but I get this message: "This phone number has already been used too many times for verification." So I can't recover my account...
What can I do to retrieve it?

    Hello,

    This is explained here on the Gmail support page!

    Message "Unable to use this phone number for verification"

    If this error message appears, you need to use another number. To protect you against abusive behavior, we limit the number of accounts that can be created using the same phone number.

    For your information, a large number of requests in a short period of time will result in a block at the identification systems on the servers of the site in question.

    Generally, it is advisable to wait 24 hours before making a new account recovery request.
