"The password was changed and then Instagram wasn't even allowing me to change password and at some point, it was saying I need to contact Instagram to ensure the account belonged to me," she said.

"Cyber crime is at an all-time high. My Instagram was hacked. I was super worried about the person sending messages to my friends or posting inappropriate pictures. My team helped to recover it. We stand to lose our reputation when something like this happens. I am happy that nothing too crazy happened and that I am back on my Instagram," Elnaaz added.
