Adobe Stock Account Deactivated for Suspicious Activity After 10+ Years – Seeking Advice

Hello Adobe Stock Community,

I have been an Adobe Stock contributor for over 10 years, with a portfolio of approximately 27,000 assets built through many years of work.

On October 30, 2026, my contributor account was unexpectedly deactivated for "suspicious activity."

I received only a generic notification, without any specific explanation of what triggered this action.

I submitted an official appeal on the same day and also contacted Adobe Contributor Relations. My support request was acknowledged, but as of November 12, I have not received any substantive response or clarification.

Throughout my years as a contributor, I have tried to follow Adobe Stock's requirements. If any specific assets or submissions have raised concerns, I am fully willing to cooperate, review them, and correct or remove problematic content where necessary.

What concerns me most is the possibility of permanently losing a portfolio that represents more than a decade of work, along with the regular income it provides for my family.

I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has experienced a similar situation:

1. Was your account eventually reinstated?
2. How long did the investigation take?
3. Did Adobe explain what was considered suspicious?
4. Is there anything else I can reasonably do while waiting for the official appeal?

I understand that community members cannot access internal investigations or overturn account decisions. I am simply looking for practical advice and experiences from fellow contributors.

Thank you for your time and any guidance you can offer.
