⚠️ URGENT: Massive Instagram User Data Exposed

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a serious incident where approximately 17.5 million Instagram user records were compromised and are circulating on underground forums.

Compromised information reportedly includes:
• Email addresses
• Contact phone numbers
• Residential addresses

For crypto and Web3 users who may have linked personal data to social accounts, this serves as a stark reminder of the importance of data compartmentalization and privacy protection. Consider reviewing your account security settings and enabling additional authentication measures immediately.

Another wave of major exposure, the security of Instagram really sucks. Quickly check your account settings, especially those who have linked their wallets.
