Heads up if you still have an account on the hell site!

There is a hack going around that allows the hacker to DM people on your follow list there.

The link in the DM goes to a fake Instagram site which appears to drop very bad things on your system/phone.

Seen it 3 times now in the wild (twice DM'd to me). First 2 were pro-Israel accounts. The 3rd was a pro-Ukraine account.

If you haven't already, lock your account (dunno how much this helps or if at all, but its never a bad idea).

@Render Good to know. I'll spread the word. Thanks! 👍👍👍

@Render Scary stuff. Haven't experienced it though.

@Render I thought that was going on a long time ago. I remember getting instagram link dm's on more than one site including X. Luckily they always come from people you don't dm with or if you do you don't random post instagram links.
