Suspicious iPhone 16 Pro Max Promo? Singer Nadeera's Instagram Reportedly Hacked
Whether your social media account is set to private or public, it essentially serves as a digital diary or a space to connect with friends and family. Either way, the last thing you'd want is for someone to hack into your account and exploit it to scam your followers. It's even more troubling if you're a public figure with thousands or even millions of followers, as hackers and scammers are more likely to exploit the account or even just your name for personal gain. That's exactly what appears to have happened to Malaysian singer Nadeera, whose account seems to have been hacked after fans noticed suspicious activity. Here's what happened: Recently, Nadeera had been posting her usual updates on Instagram, including appearances and performances. However, on Wednesday (2nd July), fans began to suspect something was wrong. The singer's account suddenly promoted a suspicious sale offering three iPhone 16 Pro Max units at a cheap price. The caption read: 'Why cheap? Because the cheap redemption that we are holding is a gift and a sign of our gratitude for the profit exceeding the target. Therefore, we are holding this special for our loyal followers and the fastest winners.' If the unusual photo and caption weren't already a red flag, the post was signed off as 'Admin' rather than Nadeera herself – a clear indication that her account had most likely been hacked. The account later posted a similar photo, claiming that one unit had already been sold and that only two iPhone 16 Pro Max units remained, likely an attempt to pressure potential victims into acting quickly before the supposed promotion ended. The comments sections on both posts were also disabled, a clear move to prevent fans from warning others that it was a scam. Following the incident, Nadeera's agency, Rocketfuel Entertainment, issued a statement confirming that her Instagram account had indeed been hacked. They also warned fans not to click on any links related to the alleged iPhone 16 Pro Max promotion. 'We're in the process of retrieving the account. We appreciate all the information fans have provided,' the company wrote. It's truly unfortunate that this has happened to Nadeera, and we hope she regains access to her account soon. If her agency chooses to file a police report, there's also the possibility of taking legal action against the hacker. Sources: Instagram (1)(2)
