Copy And Paste Hack On Instagram. Will This App Stop That?

AtlasCrusher

Hi there, my loved ones were recently hacked through a copy and paste hack on Instagram where just the action of copying and pasting text was enough to have their account taken over. Will this app help prevent that? There was no link in the text but I guess there was some sort of embedded command.

Hello,

I deleted your link as being a promotion of your website, webpage. It did have some good general information but had nothing to do with Instagram.

If you wanted to re-post in bullet point form some of those tips, that would be fine and possibly helpful.

Kind regards,

Scott
