I Lost Access to My Instagram After My Email and Password Were Changed Without Consent

I was trying to log into my Instagram account when I noticed something strange—my email had suddenly been changed, and my password too. Without any warning or action from me, my account was taken over. I can no longer log in, and every attempt to recover it has failed.
I requested a login link through Instagram, but I never got a response. The reset email goes to an address that’s not even mine anymore, meaning I have no way of accessing the account or resetting the password. This is extremely frustrating and feels like I’ve been completely locked out of something I’ve built over years.
Instagram, this is unacceptable. I need immediate help regaining control of my account. Stop ignoring users and provide real support when it comes to hacked accounts. I demand you take action now to restore my access before more users are left stranded like this.
