How to hack an Instagram account? January 2023

by Nanah

Instagram is a social network that has been very successful since 2010. It is remarkable in the following areas: communication and chat, image distribution, social networks. Today, many teenagers are more present on Instagram than Facebook. Indeed, these young people consider that Facebook is more open and intrusive, yet they want to communicate discreetly on Instagram.

There are several valid reasons for hacking someone's Instagram account. It is more instructive to state from the outset that hacking into a personal account is illegal. This one is a violation of another's privacy. But, for more valid and acceptable reasons, here are some tips on how to hack an Instagram account.

First of all if you want to hack an instagram account via software:

What are the valid reasons to hack Instagram account without using password?

As stated above, hacking an Instagram account is a violation of privacy. But, faced with inevitable contexts, an account can be hacked. Notably :

  • To verify your child's account;
  • When the password is forgotten;
  • When your phone crashed;
  • You have had an app update;
  • You lost your phone and bought a new one.

No matter the reason, there are always effective ways to access someone's Instagram account. However, we do not support illegal spying, especially without the consent of the targeted person.

Is it possible to hack Instagram account without password?

Indeed, it is possible to hack an Instagram account without password. The most common problem is forgetting the password. Forgetting happens to everyone, how many times have you registered online without having physically noted down the password? Most users choose one general password for multiple accounts. However, this is the best way to get hacked. The hacker just gets it on one site and then tests it on every site he knows.

How to hack an Instagram account?

In order to achieve your account hacking goal, you need to use compatible software. Here's how:

  • In the past, the hack required users to upload a txt document that contains frequently used and updated passwords to their browser.
  • So the program goes through this list, trying each password one by one, until it finds the perfect combination.

Indeed, this technique worked very well until others arrived on the market:

  • Special characters ;
  • Random password generators;
  • Two-factor authentication.

These new methods have reduced the effectiveness of the brute force method.

In other words, and if not used, hacking an Instagram account is illegal and considered a crime. We strongly advise against any use of hacks for malicious purposes.

Answer to the question, is it possible to hack an Instagram account without having the password?

Currently it is impossible to hack an Instagram account without the methods above and without having installed the software that I have put at the top or bottom of this page.
I advise you to stop your research because other sites want you to install viruses! Some sites will offer you to download software but to hack your computer. If there is a way to hack your Instagram account or another, we will tell you on this page. So you can put it in favorites but it will be impossible or almost.

Tool that allows you to monitor an Instagram Account:

For parents, couples or people who are close, and you want to be able to monitor and spy on the Instagram account and everything your child, spouse, boyfriend or other does

There is currently only one tool that I advise you to test

See someone's private messages on Instagram

It's a tool that's perfect for seeing someone's messages without them knowing, so go try it out!

For those who have lost their account and want to recover it, you should know that the tool just above allows you to do everything remotely on your phone, so even for yourself, I recommend that you install it on your phone (myself, I have it in case someone steals my phone or my Instagram account!)

Otherwise to recover your account the only way is to make requests to the support, to try to find your password. Unfortunately there is no other solution :(. Beware of other sites that want to scam you by calling phone numbers. This will cost you 20$ per week for no results.

How to Hack into an Instagram Account

When I’m not studying videos of raccoons online (know your enemy!), I’m fielding requests from wannabe hackers all around the world because I work for Hacker Highschool. So, wannabe hackers tend to think our curriculum is there as a checklist of scriptkiddie tools that lets them DoS your online competition of Banjo Hero or creep into private Instagram accounts.

And it is. But it isn’t.

First, I recognize that hacking an Instagram password is wrong. I get it. Even if it’s their brother’s Instagram account they want to get into. Because it’s family that makes it okay, I guess. So yes, it's illegal, but being illegal doesn't make it wrong. But it’s wrong because guessing a password isn’t hacking, and not because it’s their brother. And this is why so many nascent hacker-wannabes who want to learn hacking don’t really want to learn hacking. They want to learn computer magic, and it doesn’t really work like that.

How it works is actual work. And it’s a grind sometimes. What’s strange is that so many people today can spend actual days virtually cutting virtual trees in a virtual world to get to level three tree warrior, but won’t spend an hour trying requests through Tamper Data to understand how Instagram on the web is authenticating people differently than the app. Strange because both are really not much more than pushing a cursor around a screen.

So, teaching you hacking is partly about teaching you how to set up and execute a kind of work grind. Then there’s the mindset thing too. But you know what, you need a mindset to get out of bed and go to work too, and that trumps the hacker mindset in the mornings. So, let’s leave the hacker mindset for those who already have the will to do the work grind mindset, because you won’t have one without the other.

The last part of teaching you to hack an Instagram account is that by the time I teach you what you need to know with OS, protocols, services, daemons, applications, authentication, and encryption, and what you need to do with hiding, relaying, bouncing, testing, fuzzing, tracing, trying, retrying, and learning from your frequent failures, you’ll know too much about how little you really know and how you could get caught doing it. So, you probably won’t be doing anything illegal. They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but when we’re talking about a skill like hacking that focuses on knowledge-gettin’ then you can expect to quickly have more than enough knowledge to see your own foolishness.

Unless you want me to just tell you to use the instacrack tool for Windows available on the ISECOM website to just put in an account name and view private account pictures. But that’s telling, not teaching, and it’s running a tool and not hacking. Also, don’t ask me how to cook if you want me to show you how to warm up a TV dinner.

But if that’s really what you want, then you never wanted to be a hacker, which means your life is about only having enough knowledge to be dangerous. Which is okay if you want to be an amateur assassin or a cashier in a natural foods store for the rest of your life. Not judging. We all have our dreams. But then you’re looking in the wrong place.

Next thing to understand: hacking isn't a tool, it's a methodology. You likely won't be able to hack an established service without considerable time spent learning its operations and interactions. Which isn’t necessarily hard. It’s actually pretty straight-forward.

The fact of this is that there's only two ways to steal anything: either you take it, or someone gives it to you. You need to trick Instagram to give you their credentials. Or you need to trick the person whose credentials you want to steal into giving it to you. Or you need to take it from them, or Instagram. But it's likely you won't be able to take it from Instagram. Not impossible, just not likely because they have a lot more people with a lot more experience working on securing it then you have for breaking it. Supposedly. Who knows? Maybe you’ll get lucky. People win the lottery all the time. That’s why so many people play it.

Then those two ways actually expand into four tactics that you try against both the target sender and target receiver. These four:

  • Induction – analyzing the target environment where the interactions happen (OS, app type, app development language, etc.). The environment is completely under the target’s control, so it’s important to figure out how they set up their applications to live there.
  • Inquest – capturing and reading emanations from the target (domain services, errors, heat signatures, power spikes, info leaks in packet padding, etc. ). As any family will tell you, from bath tubs to babies, everything leaks. It’s the same with computers. The Internet exists because protocols play nice, communicate, and share, or else you’d never get online and go anywhere. So, ask and find out what’s sharing what. And the better you listen, the more you know.
  • Interaction – triggering responses from the target by sending all possible types of interactions in all possible ways (TCP flag mutations, ICMP type and code mutations, etc.). Systems are designed to communicate with each other but it’s a needs-based, mono-thematic language similar to that as found in snow monkeys and teenage boys. Tell them the wrong things and you’ve lost them. But lose them the right way and they might give you a surprise, like access.
  • Intervention – determining the resources the target needs and either starving them, or flooding them and forcing them to behave in a way that is outside their designed response (DNS, power, cooling, unsanitized inputs, ARP replies, etc. ). Do the thing the designers didn’t anticipate to ever happen and you’ll force the system into doing something insecure.

So there. Use those four. Now you know where your targets are and the tactics to try. That leaves you with a few options in your grind. If you need more specific examples on you how you would apply these four tactics to real-world, how would you take over your brother’s Instagram account, here's five common ones to get you started:

  • Use Inquest and take it from him using shoulder surfing. Just watch him type in his password without him knowing.  
  • Use Intervention and take it from him by sniffing the WiFi he uses- but again, man-in-the-middle attacks are work to set up if it's not your WiFi. Same with setting up a website that looks like Instagram for him to log into and then captures the password instead and then forwards him onto the real Instagram site so he doesn't know you took it.
  • Use Induction by having him use your phone or computer to log into Instagram. Since you control the device you can control the environment and capture anything typed into it.
  • Use Interaction and have Instagram give it to you by exploiting their process of lost passwords. That takes a little thinking, but if he's really your brother then you may have access to his email or computer or something else where you can exploit that vector.
  • Finally, put all four tactics together and mount a multi-stage attack by putting malware on his system. You need a RAT - a remote access Trojan - to take over his computer. You'll also need to know how to get it on his system without his antivirus finding it. If it's a mobile device you have even more work ahead of you. And if the malware goes rogue and infects other systems or doesn't respond the way you want it to, then you have way bigger problems.

Now I’d like to tell you don’t do things that have worked before because system designers learn from their mistakes and the mistakes made by others. Unfortunately, they don’t. It’s not like Engineering students are forced to take a competency exam in all the mistakes previously done in engineering. Oh, if only! I would totally take that class just for fun! But they don’t, so feel free to try things that worked in the past.

So that's it. No matter what you do, it will require more than just a tool. Because if was a tool that does some magic and then you get in, then you probably can’t afford that tool. Good magic isn’t cheap. Think about it: anyone who went through all the hard work to figure out how to do that wouldn't release a tool, as that info is way too profitable.

So, there’s no Windows-based instacrack tool either. Just kidding! I’m sure you already checked though. 

What to do if someone tries to access your Facebook or Instagram

A notification pops up on the smartphone screen: "We detected an unusual login attempt from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil." The first reaction is panic, especially if you live in, say, Vladivostok. What could it be? System failure? Or is someone from the other side of the world really encroaching on your account?

There is no way to panic in such a situation - this will only play into the hands of the burglars. So that you can remain calm and survive this incident with minimal losses, we will arm you with knowledge: we tell you what the matter might be and how to act. nine0003

What could have happened

First, let's figure out how a stranger could gain access to your account at all. There are several options here.

Data leak and wildcard attack

A third party site where you registered might have been leaked. Having acquired a list of logins, e-mail addresses and passwords, scammers use them for a substitution attack, that is, they try to enter stolen credentials on many sites. Unfortunately, many people set the same passwords to protect their accounts in different services - this is what criminals are counting on. nine0003

Alternatively, your Facebook or Instagram credentials may have been leaked from the app you trusted them to. For example, in June last year, thousands of passwords from Instagram accounts leaked to the network, the owners of which used the Social Captain service to buy likes and followers. It turned out that he did not encrypt customer data, and anyone could get access to it. It is reasonable to assume that many users of the service have since experienced hacking attempts.

Phishing

It may also be that some time ago you fell for phishing, and your login with a password fell into the hands of scammers directly. They clicked on some link, and on the page that opened, very similar to the Facebook or Instagram login screen, they entered their credentials. So they ended up with the criminal. For example, most recently, our experts discovered a phishing campaign in which victims were lured to phishing pages by the threat of blocking their Facebook account due to copyright infringement.

Password theft

Your password may have been stolen by malware you picked up somewhere. Many Trojans have a built-in keylogger, a program that registers keystrokes on the keyboard. All logins and passwords that the victim enters, the keylogger directly passes into the hands of attackers.

Access token stolen

Someone may have stolen your access token. So that you don't have to enter a password every time you log into Facebook or Instagram, it saves a small piece of information needed to log in to your computer, which is called a token or access token. If an attacker steals the current token, he will be able to log into the account without a username and password. nine0003

Tokens can be stolen in different ways. Sometimes this is done through vulnerabilities in Facebook itself - for example, in 2018, attackers were able to get access tokens to 50 million Facebook accounts. Also, attackers can use browser extensions to steal tokens.

Login from someone else's device

It's possible that you logged into Facebook or Instagram from someone else's device - at a party, in an Internet cafe, in a hotel lobby, and so on - and did not log out after that. Or, for example, they forgot to log out of their account on a device that they had already sold or donated. Now someone has discovered your oversight and logged into your account. nine0003

False alarm (phishing again)

Your account may not have been hacked at all, but they are trying with a fake suspicious login notification. This is the same phishing that we talked about above, but a slightly different version of it. Instead of the threat of blocking, scammers can use fake suspicious login notifications with a link to phishing sites similar to the login page. Attackers expect that the victim in a panic will go to a fake site and enter their username and password there. nine0003

And what to do?

We have sorted out the possible causes, now it's time to act. To get started, log into your account - but in any case not through the link from the notification (as we already know, it can lead to a phishing site), but through the mobile application or by entering the address in the browser manually. If the password does not match and you can no longer log into your account, refer to the detailed instructions on what to do if your account has already been hijacked, which we published earlier.

If you are still allowed into your account, go to your account settings and verify the authenticity of the notification. For each social network, the path to the desired settings item will be different - see how this is done on Facebook and Instagram. Then go to the “Account Logins” section: if there are no suspicious entries there, then everything is in order, and the message about the hack was still phishing. nine0003

If you really see a suspicious one in the list of logins to your account, then it's time to hurry up to take protective measures - timely actions will help soften the blow:

  • Log out of your account on all devices. On Instagram, you will have to manually end each session in menu Account Logins . And on Facebook, this can be done with a single click in the Security and login section in the settings. This will reset the access tokens.
  • Make sure that the correct phone number and email address are specified in the account settings: attackers could change the data so that the link or code to change the password is sent to them. If they managed to do this, change it back to yours. nine0052
  • Set a new password that is strong and one that you don't use anywhere else. If you're not sure you can remember it, save it in a password manager. By the way, at the same time the program will help you come up with a reliable combination.
  • Turn on two-factor authentication to make it harder for attackers to break into your accounts, even if they know your password.
  • After that, be sure to check all your devices with a reliable antivirus to make sure that they are free of malware. Attention to security settings along with good protection will make your account your fortress. nine0052
