Instagram Account Hacked – Phishing
Hi, my Instagram account was hacked today. I gave my cousin my login link and their account was also breached. The username, email and phone number was changed. I don't have any way of recovering my account. I've tried everything I can think of and wanted to share my experience in case someone has gone through the same thing. Also, if you know anyone in Meta that can help that would be great. I've gone through all the help center suggestions for recovery. Also, the email notifications I received when the changes were made had "recovery" links that never worked. I appreciate anyones help in advance.

- EddieDante 4y agoThis is your sign from God telling you it's time to let go of Meta products, and perhaps all social media in general.
- ShaneMcGowan 4y agoLiterally this exact same thing happened to a close friend of mine 1 month ago. All links to recovery information didn’t solve the issue and support seemed unable to do anything due to the email and phone number being changed. My suggestion is to back up all your photos as quickly as possible, there are tools on GitHub for this. If your account was private you will need to get someone already follows you to help. Unfortunately it is very unlikely you will get your account back
