Instagram Blocks Reporter S Real Profile Before The Fake One

While social media can be a fun place to hang out with friends, especially these days, there is always a risk of getting your identity stolen by someone on the internet. People stealing identities and creating fake accounts is not a new thing to scam others. And recently, a popular reporter faced a similar issue. However, in a turn of events, Instagram blocked her original account.

Getting hacked on #socialmedia is a nightmare! Happened to me on @instagram. I’ll share the awful ordeal of trying to get the FAKE account down tonight at 6. Watch to see what happened & how you can protect yourself. @WPXI #InstagramHacker #fakeaccounts #CyberSecurity pic.twitter.com/elgZ8ZG9q7

Only a few typos differentiated the fake account from the real one. For instance, it was “Ange Moreschi” instead of “Angie Moreschi” in the fake one.
