Hacked Instagram Account and Extortion
When I clicked on a link from another account on Instagram, my account was suddenly taken over by someone else. It appeared to be a normal page. When I messaged that page from my sister's account, they demanded 5,000 tl. In order to secure my username, I pretended to bargain and eventually settled for 2,500 tl. They gave me a name and an IBAN. Despite reporting these details to the authorities, they dismissed my complaint, claiming that it was unlikely to result in anything. I sent Instagram a selfie, and they promised to respond within 3-4 days. However, based on what I've read here, responses appear improbable. I'm waiting for Instagram to fix my problem because my memories are at stake. We no longer print our memories at photo studios; instead, we save them on Instagram or Facebook. If Instagram cannot find a solution, it may be time to close it down.
