Instagram says there's been 'no breach' despite password reset requests | TechCrunch

That seemingly contradicts a Friday Bluesky post from antivirus software company Malwarebytes, which shared a screenshot of an email from Instagram informing users of a request to reset their password. The post claimed, "Cybercriminals stole the sensitive information of 17.5 million Instagram accounts, including usernames, physical addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and more." This data, Malwarebytes added, "is available for sale on the dark web and can be abused by cybercriminals."
