What happened
Phishing tracker @phishunt_io posted on X on 10 November 2026 that instagram-services[.]com is an Instagram-themed phishing site. The post listed the host IP as 216.150.1.1 on Amazon (AS16509) in the United States and linked it from phishunt.io's tracker. The domain is not an official Instagram or Meta address. Sign in to Instagram only through the official app or by typing instagram.com yourself, and never enter your password or a login code on a page reached from a message or ad.
How the scam works
Pages that copy Instagram's sign-in form are usually reached from direct messages, comments, ads or emails that claim a login problem, a copyright strike or a chance to recover a disabled account. The form looks familiar, but anything typed is sent to whoever runs instagram-services.com rather than to Meta. A captured password and a one-time login code can be used immediately to take over the account, change the recovery email and lock the real owner out.
Instagram's real sign-in address is instagram.com, and the official app does not send customers to a separate "services" domain. The host IP listed in the tracker post sits on Amazon address space, which many throwaway sites use; Amazon is the infrastructure provider, not the operator of the page. Because the report comes from a public tracker post, the indicators have not been independently checked by scammers.com.
