I would imagine your account gets blocked very quickly as soon as you strat scraping. Isn't that the case?

Did that happen to you? I do not understand why you would 'imagine' this. Is there more information you can share?

When automating data collection from platforms like Facebook Marketplace, it's crucial to consider the potential risks to your IP's security and privacy. Proxy and scraping services like Bright Data and IP Burger offer residential proxies that can help shield your IP address from exposure. These services can protect you from potential blocks or bans that Meta might impose if they detect scraping activities. Frequent automated requests can be flagged by a website's security systems, which may lead to your IP address being banned. By using a residential proxy, you're mitigating the risk of detection as these services route your internet traffic through an intermediary server, providing an additional layer of anonymity.
