Now the cherry on top is that this particular Doodh Wala’s social media account is verified, the action supremely shocking Tamkenat and her friend to the core.

Is it this easy to get your account verified on Instagram? Keep on reading to find out:

During the span of the latest video shared on Tamkenat’s social media handle, the lady can be seen indulging in a supremely fun interaction with her girl pal, here are the exact dialogues uttered:

Tamkenat: “Yeh dekhna zara yeh kon hai jis ne mujhe friend request bheji hai?” (Who has now sent me a friend request?)

Areej: “Aye Haye yeh tou humara doodh wala hai, is ne kyoun bheji hai tumhe friend request?” (Oh My God, this the man who delivers milk at my hoise, why has he sent you a friend request?) 

Tamkenat: “Iska account bhi verified hai?” (His account is verified!)

Areej: “Haan aj kal Instagram par paise de kar har kisi ka account verify hojata hai.” (Yes it is now very easy to buy verificiations on Instagram).

Tamkenat: “Kitne paison mein hojata hai?” (How much do they cost?)

Areej: “Yeh koi 15 Dollar mahinay ke.” (15 Dollars per month).

Tamkenat: “15 dollar bas ek dafa ya har mahinay?” (15 Dollars just once or every month?)

Tamkenat: “Isay acha mein pizza kha lun 15 Dollar ka. Waisay bhi sab ko yehi lagna hai ke paisay de kar verify karwaya hai. Faida?” (I should just buy some pizza for 15 Dollars because everyone will know that I must have bought the verifcation so there is no use).

According to the information available on social media: Instagram will never ask for payment for the verification badge, and if someone is offering to verify your account for money, they are trying to scam you.

However with the world progressing with a mind-boggling speed, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if it gets confirmed that people can actually buy verification badges on Instagram and Twitter.

However did you know that there is a culture observed on Instagram with vigor which revolves around public figures actually buying followers in order to increase the number of their followers on various social media applications?

Thriving businesses actually seek accounts with fan following comprising of mostly fake followers and then they contact the relevant person and inquire if they want to buy followers.

Now are you wondering whether these ‘bought followers’ are real? Well, these ‘fake followers’ are just empty accounts created for the purpose of running this flourishing business on social media.

Meaning that your fan followings can certainly become larger through buying followers however these people can add no value to your social media experience, as they can’t interact with your account because these ‘accounts’ are rarely ever used.
