Hackers Hijacked Instagram Accounts by Asking Meta' AI Support Bot - June 2026

Hackers exploited a significant flaw in Meta's AI support bot to gain unauthorized access to numerous Instagram accounts over the weekend. This sophisticated attack bypassed traditional security measures like password theft, highlighting the risks of AI-driven customer support. This security incident follows Apple's WWDC 2026 which kicked off on June 8th, featuring a major overhaul of Siri and marking what is likely Tim Cook's final keynote as CEO before handing over to John Ternus. Additionally, many DStv Stream app users on Android TVs are experiencing a blackout, being told their devices are 'unsupported' just weeks before the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

  • Notable accounts compromised included the archived Obama White House handle and the account of US Space Force Chief Master Sergeant John Bentivegna, with some profiles briefly defaced.
  • The vulnerability primarily affected accounts without two-factor authentication (2FA); accounts with 2FA enabled were reportedly safe.
