Morning! I need some help - this may be long but I don't want to drip feed
My Instagram account was hacked over a week ago (along with many many others it seems). What has happened is that they've hacked into my account, changed the password, email and username and also hacked into my email account and deleted the generic security messages from Instagram alerting me to a potential problem. I only found out when I tried to access my account and it said "not found". I eventually found it after searching some recent hashtags I knew I'd used and saw that it had been taken over by a Russian account. All my pictures still there of my child, dog, bloody dinner...you get the picture.
I've reported the issue to Instagram who sent me a generic automated email asking me to verify myself by sending them a photo hi,ding a piece of paper with a code on. This I have done (several tikes now). It I've had no response.
The hacker has now changed their profile picture again to a scantily clad woman with a link to a porn site but all my pictures are still there of me, my child etc etc alongside the porn!
I've done everything I can think of
*reported the page
- asked everyone I know to report the page
*emailed Instagram support every day
*tweeted Instagram
*tweeted the press!
*written on instagrams Facebook
Various people have reported the page and gotten an automated message to say it does not violate Instagrams policies.
ITS A PORN ACCOUNT THAT HAS BEEN HACKED WITH PICTURES OF A MINOR ON IT 😡😡😡😡😡😤😤😤😤😤😤
I literally do not know what else to do. Instagram are just not interested.
Anyone any ideas? I need to get this account deleted 😭
