<p>Claudia,<br>
Does sound like a bunch of phishing - I'd go to the normal
instagram login - and click on the forgot password link.<br>
It requires your current email tied to the account - which I'm
sure you'll have seen from the myriad of emails instagram sends.<br>
This way you know what comes in is a valid email from IG.</p>
<p>Good luck - Rich<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">When I opened my Instagram account on my
iphone, I received a notice: “We detected an Unusual login
attempt” and two options, and I clicked on “this wasn’t me.”
The next screen asked for my “new password” and then “verify
password” but never asked for my current password. Which
really feels like phishing. So I didn’t offer a new password
or complete the request.<u></u><u></u></p>
