That proved significantly more difficult than I expected as contacting instagram is no easy feat! Thankfully so many of you in the #BoopTroop messaged me with tips and links to articles which might help me get my account back.Īfter I accepted that I had been instagram hacked I realised that the hacker could easily just delete my account. I then started researching how I could contact instagram to recover my account assuming they had a readily available customer contact number. I tried and tried to log into my account but to no avail. I started to receive emails from instagram which were in Turkish and so I couldn’t understand what was happening. I immediately panicked and went to look and sure enough I had been kicked out of the instagram app on my phone and my password didn’t appear to be working when I logged in with my username This is because within the short space of a few minutes the hacker had changed the name on my instagram account to Laura sent me a screenshot of this and I jumped straight on to my laptop to try to log in frantically. I had been chatting with one of my friends, Laura ( over on Instagram) when she messaged asking if there was something wrong with my instagram account. It was a regular Saturday evening and I was lounging about getting ready to head out with friends later that night. Well it’s been a crazy week in the world of BecBoop social media! The unthinkable happened, every bloggers worst nightmare – my instagram account was hacked! In today’s blog post I’m going to share the story of how and why my instagram was hacked and more importantly (and thankfully) how I recovered my account! Obviously make sure to go follow me over on Instagram keep up with my photo diary and instagram stories.
