📱 Instagram Security Alert

Over the past few days, two Instagram exploits have reportedly been circulating within the community.

• The first exploit reportedly triggers account bans for no clear reason, even for users who aren’t using personal profile pictures.

• The second exploit lets attackers gain access to accounts without needing a password, which has already led to many OG usernames being stolen.

If you have a valuable username, it is strongly recommended to enable 2FA and stay cautious until these exploits get fixed.

👀 Someone sent a .ton domain NFT to all of John Lick’s TON wallets, and now all of his previously active wallets have automatically been renamed to simmed-t-me.ton. Since the owner is in jail, they cannot be renamed and could stay unchanged for years.

Why didn’t we think of this sooner... 🫡
