Bad news struck the former politician in Indonesia as Angelina Sondakh's Instagram account was hacked by irresponsible parties. The account with the username @angelinasondakh09 suddenly posted advertisements for cheap smartphones, which were used by the hackers to deceive unsuspecting users.
"When my child informed me of unusual activities on my Instagram account, I immediately panicked and tried to access my Instagram account. It turns out, when attempting to log in, I couldn't because the password had already been changed by the hackers," said Angelina Sondakh.
In addition to the numerous victims affected by the hackers' use of the account, the losses incurred also amounted to hundreds of millions of rupiah due to the failure of endorsement collaborations resulting from this incident.
The case of Instagram hacking involving Angelina Sondakh has been reported to the police, and she has also apologized to those who have used her services to endorse products, promising to refund their money.
In this Instagram hacking case, the perpetrators initially demanded a ransom of 5 million rupiah, but after negotiations, it eventually decreased to 1 million rupiah. After the payment was made, however, the account was still not returned. This is one of the characteristics of a Ransomware attack that steals personal data and then demands a ransom from the victim.
