An email was sent to me yesterday informing me that someone from Kiev Ukraine, using a Samsung phone logged in my account.
Good thing that Instagram account is just my minor account but it just horrifies me how easy it is to penetrate an IG account.
I have two active IG accounts and I use my phone numbers there not my email and so far I have not encountered such message.

I often receive terrifying mails. Now they say I must change all my passwords as they have been hacked. I cannot do all that.

Yeah, I also had one bad experience about that many years ago when I used UBER and charged it to my credit card. I do not know how it got hacked but my UBER account was also used by someone in Russia and traveled to somewhere in that place. I reported that to UBER and they refunded it to me promptly since it is pretty obvious I am here in the Philippines and I have not traveled to that place yet.

This is a reason why our pass words should be changed more often.

@Janet357 What they are doing is very evil, in every way!

@Janet357 I would probably just close my account. Then, reopen a new one.

Facebook and their partner platforms (messanger) and (instagram) aren't exactly created with the highest of security. While facebook offers 2-factor athuatiocation, it's far from perfect. My friend has gotten hacked and locked out of her account on more than one occassion and iI've had to bail her out.

Sometimes they might be fake messages or just make a password that nobody would EVER know
