Hello,

This morning I received a message on my mobile phone from a friend on Instagram saying "Is that you in the photo ??????" along with a link.

Unfortunately, I clicked on this link which directed me to a page looking like Instagram where I was supposed to enter my information to supposedly see this photo, but I did not!
I am still afraid that I have been hacked and that an application has been installed on my phone without my knowledge, as the websites say… I changed some passwords because I saw on my Instagram account under "Login Activity" that someone was logged in, and it wasn’t me! Now they are no longer logged in but I am not reassured…

I installed Avast antivirus but I don't know if it really helps…

Here is the link: https://godsrods.com/P2dvZHM9N283YTBQNzU2WTZE

Thank you for your help!

    Hello,
    as long as you haven't entered your requested Instagram login and password on the page, there's nothing to worry about.

      Change your Instagram password and enable two-factor authentication.
