Why do hackers target your Instagram account?

Hackers have various reasons for taking over an Instagram account. Sometimes it’s for financial gain, but often it’s to abuse your reach and reputation. Common goals include:

Using your followers for spam or fake contests
Advertising or committing fraud through your profile
Abusing your identity for fraud
Selling your account to third parties

Whatever their motive, the risk is always high. The sooner you take action, the greater the chance of fully recovering your account.

What can you do beforehand to prevent a hack?

Prevention is better than cure. With a few simple steps, you can reduce the risk of your Instagram account being hacked:

Use strong, unique passwords
Store passwords securely with a password manager
Enable two-step verification (2FA)
Be alert to fake links and phishing messages in DMs
Check regularly which apps have access to your Instagram

What You Should Never Do After Your Instagram Is Hacked

When your Instagram account is hacked, panic often leads to risky decisions. To protect yourself and your data, avoid the following:

Don’t pay anyone who contacts you through your hacked account

Don’t share security codes or passwords with strangers
Don’t click new suspicious links sent to you
Don’t ignore security emails from Instagram
Don’t keep using the same password elsewhere

How does an Instagram account get hacked?

Most hacks start with something small—a message, a link, or a login attempt that seems legitimate. However, these are the most common causes:

Phishing: You receive a fake message or email from ‘Instagram’ and unknowingly enter your details.
Stolen passwords: the same login details are used on multiple websites and end up in the wrong hands.
Unsafe apps or tools: Some apps that request access to your account are not trustworthy.
Third-party access: former employees, administrators, or partners who still have login rights.
No two-step verification: Without an extra layer of security, your account is much more vulnerable.

By recognising these signals in time, you increase the chance of limiting or even preventing damage.
