<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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I then saw in my email account linked to
Instagram a few similar notices from different places in the
world with a similar message:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“We Noticed a New Login, claudiagere0<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> We noticed a login from a device you don't
usually use.” <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There was a link, which looks official, but
led to an invalid page notice “This is not a valid link.” I’ve
added a space before .com so no one clicks inadvertently if it
is corrupt. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do I go ahead and put in new password and
confirm? Not sure if I have anything to lose as I’m locked out
anyway. Appreciate any shared experience with this or
suggestions. Thank you, Claudia<o:p></o:p></p>
