Instagram has added new tools to help users regain access to their accounts if they are locked out, as well as new measures to combat impersonation to avoid a Twitter’s like recent situation.
Instagram Hacked Accounts
Instagram’s goal is to make the app a place where people feel welcome and cared for. Password strength and two-factor authentication are two simple ways to increase the security of your account. Instagram also provides a handy Security Check-Up that you can use at any time to examine and tighten up your account’s security.
Instagram is highlighting many new features in addition to these continuing safety tools that will help individuals keep their accounts secure and provide them with greater assistance should they lose account access.
Instagram.com/hacked is a new, all-inclusive hub where users may go to report and resolve account access issues if they’ve experienced them or believe their account has been hacked.
Simply, enter Instagram.com/hacked into your smartphone or desktop browser if you are unable to access your account. The next step will let you choose whether you suspect a hack, have forgotten your password, no longer have access to two-factor authentication, or have had your account disabled. There, you’ll find instructions on how to reset your password and access your account. If your information is linked to numerous accounts, you will be given the option to specify which one requires assistance.
