THE ILUVBBALL INSTAGRAM PAGE HAS BEEN HACKED BY SOMEONE IN LAGOS NIGERIA IN AFRICA.

IF SOMEONE MESSAGES YOU VIA INSTAGRAM SITE FROM THE ORIGINAL ILUVBBALL INSTAGRAM PAGE IT’S A SCAM TO GET INTO YOUR ACCOUNT AND TRY AND GET MONEY FROM YOUR FOLLOWERS AND FRIENDS DISGUISED AS YOU.

AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE SCREENSHOT BELOW I WAS HALF ASLEEP WHEN THE SCAMMER GAINED ACCESS TO MY ACCOUNT. HE TRICKED ME INTO THINKING HE WAS SOMEONE I KNEW AND ASKED ME TO HELP HIM GAIN ACCESS TO HIS INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT BECAUSE HE HAD A NEW PHONE AND LOST HIS PASSWORD. HE THEN ASKED ME TO COPY AND PASTE THE CODE FROM THE 2-STEP VERIFICATION AND HE WAS REALLY GETTING INTO MY ACCOUNT. ONCE HE GAINED ACCESS TO MY ACCOUNT HE CHANGED THE PASSWORD AND LOCKED ME OUT AND CHANGED THE NEW PASSWORD. 

I ATTACHED THIS YOUTUBE VIDEO DESCRIBING HOW THE SCAM WORKS.

I MESSAGED THE HACKERS AND THEY BLOCKED MY ACCOUNT. IN THE IMAGES BELOW YOU’LL SEE THAT HE CREATED A GROUP AND ADDED MY FOLLOWERS IN IT. AS YOU CAN SEE HE’S USING A FONT STYLE THAT I’VE NEVER USED BEFORE. IF YOU’RE NAME COMES UP IN THE IMAGES BELOW OR THE PERSON TRIES TO CONTACT YOU. BLOCK AND REPORT THEM TO INSTAGRAM! 

WE ARE UNABLE TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE OLD PAGE SO WE STARTED A NEW TEMPORARY ONE ON INSTAGRAM @ILUVBBALLTV

THAT IS WHERE WE WILL BE POSTING ANY NEW BASKETBALL-RELATED UPDATES AND EVENTS. 

SO GO AND FOLLOW US ON THE NEW INSTAGRAM PAGE @ILUVBBALLTV

THANK YOU, AND WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY HAVE CAUSED YOU.

ILUVBBALL FOUNDER,

RODINI ALMONACY.
