Hacking is inevitable in today’s day and age. In a world of endless passwords and endless people figuring out those passwords, I can only assume we’ll all end up getting hacked eventually.

I woke up early one morning and rolled over to check my phone. Clicking on the instagram app on my screen it took me to the log in screen. I haven’t had to log in to my own instagram in years. It just always took me to my feed. After a couple quick searchers and failed attempts it seemed like my account had gotten deleted. After getting a copy right strike a couple days prior I figured maybe this led to the deletion. It was too early to deal with this so I put my phone down and went back to bed. Partially relieved at the fact that I had been freed from Instagram and Robots From as a whole.

I woke up to a Whats App message from a number I didn’t recognize. The first message said “hey.” I figured it was the wrong number so I deleted it and didn’t think much of it. A little later I checked my phone again and had the following conversation. I know most people aren’t fond of hackers, but I get that it’s apart of life now. And if I had to get hacked by anyone I’m glad it was this kid.

HACKER: I hacked your account. Do you want it back?

ME: Yes please

HACKER: I’ll give back your account for $300.

ME: How do I know you’ll give it back though?

*sends several videos of other people’s accounts.*

HACKER: I hacked their accounts too. They threw me the money and I returned it.

HACKER: I don’t need an account.

HACKER: I promise to return it.

HACKER: :)

ME: I have venmo and paypal? Which is better?

ME: Can you send me a pic of the DM’s so I know you have it

*sends screen recording of himself scrolling through my DM’s*

ME: Looks like mine haha

ME: How do you want me to pay?

ME: How’d you get into this? Also, what language is that?

[referring to the language my account was in in his screen recording]

HACKER: Turkish, I am Turkish. And I’m a hacker. Hahaha

ME: How long have you been hacking?

HACKER: wait I will come back.

*A few moments go by*

HACKER: 2 years

ME: How do you want to get paid?

ME: Were you affected by that earthquake

that happened there a little bit back?

*sends email for Paypal payment*

HACKER: But my friend gets a commission. So you have to throw $350.

HACKER: 😩😩

ME: How’d you come across my account

in the first place? I’m pretty small

 compared to others.

HACKER: I hacked the others.

HACKER: I play on accounts with 300 400k followers.

HACKER: You have to send the money immediately

so that it reaches me tomorrow.

ME: Doing it now

ME: But I only have 12k [followers]

HACKER: Ok I’m waiting

HACKER: Business accounts always give

money, it doesn’t matter the follower

for the account. Hahahaha

ME: Fair enough

ME: Did the earthquakes in Turkey effect

you at all?

HACKER: No.

HACKER: But many people were hurt.

HACKER: hundreds of thousands.

ME: I saw that. It looked horrifying from the images

that I saw of it.

ME: How old are you?

ME: I sent the mone. I sent $350 in USD

HACKER: Can you take a screen shot?

HACKER: 17

*I sent a screen shot of the sent money*

ME: It converted it to euros

HACKER: Oh ok thank you.

HACKER: The money will come to me tomorrow.

ME: Sounds good.

ME: Can I get my account back?

ME: Do you like surfing at all?

HACKER: I will return [the account when] the money when it comes

to me tomorrow. Because you can

cancel the money. It be can cancelled.

I can’t take risks.

HACKER: Can you wait until tomorrow?

ME: I kind of need it to get in touch with

friends for the weekend cause I have

friends I only really talk to via dm.

ME: Are you sure it takes that long? Try

checking your Paypal now I’ve never

had it take a whole day before

HACKER: No, the money comes within 24 hours.

HACKER: Search on the internet.

HACKER: Someone threw money at me before, I

gave the account and cancelled the money.

HACKER: Write on the internet to see how many

days the money comes.

HACKER: Did you send the money with a friend

or family option?

ME: No, I sent money as good and

services. Is friends and family better?

ME: I get it not wanting to take the risk

HACKER: Yes it was better.

HACKER: With the option of family or friends,

the money comes in 1 day.

HACKER: But I don’t know how many days other

options are coming. Wait a minute, I’ll

find out.

ME: Ok I can do that one if you’d like.

ME: Or we can just wait and see.

HACKER: I talked to my friend.

HACKER: If you cancel money, his account limit

goes down.

HACKER: So don’t cancel.

ME: Ok I won’t

HACKER: I want to trust you.

HACKER: I will give the account now.

HACKER: But if you cancel the money

HACKER: I hack your account again. And if you

throw money, I won’t give it back

HACKER: Do we have agreement

ME: That works cause I don’t know how to

cancel

HACKER: Hahahah

ME: Agreed

HACKER: 👍 🥰❤️

HACKER: Your password is ; ********

ME: Same email?

HACKER: Change your e-mail.

HACKER: From the settings.

HACKER: Same username.

ME: Ok will do.

ME: Thank you

HACKER: robotsfrom

HACKER: If you have a problem with social

media, I can help you.

HACKER: ❤️

ME: It worked thank you!

ME: So do you do this full time or just on

the side for extra money?

HACKER: I love this job. I do it for the money

and for the love.

ME: That’s cool. Being able to hack

Anyone you want has to be such a cool feeling.

ME: What’s the account with the most

followers you’ve hacked?

HACKER: 5 million followers.

HACKER: But he got the account back. I

couldn’t hold it.

HACKER: He had the media.

HACKER: Thanks to him, he got it back.

ME: 5 million is too many followers anyway.

ME: Do you just hack Instagram’s or can

you hack other things?

ME: I’m hacking Instagram Facebook

Twitter or something.

HACKER: What do you do besides hacking? Or

do you just spend most of your time

doing that?

HACKER: No I don’t spend much time. Because

it’s a very stressful job.

HACKER: These things get on people’s nerves.

ME: That makes sense. I bet it’s crazy

Stressful trying to deal with people

After hacking their stuff.

ME: What do you guys do for fun in Turkey?

ME: Over here I mostly just surf and watch

futbol. Take photos sometimes

HACKER: There is nothing to enjoy here.

HACKER: Beautiful.

ME: I’m sure the earthquake didn’t help.

ME: What do you do away from hacking?

HACKER: I usually play bets.

HACKER: Hahaha

HACKER: I’m losing a lot of money

HACKER: But one day I will win big.

ME: Do you mostly bet Turkish futbol?

ME: I think you will [win big].

ME: I’m about to lose money on Arsenal

cause they’re going to lose the

Premiere league to Man City.

HACKER: No, I play in all mixed countries.

HACKER: I stay away from those teams.

HACKER: Because the results are not clear.

HACKER: And it’s making me lose.

HACKER: Hahaha

ME: That makes sense haha

ME: What’s your favorite league to follow?

HACKER: Paris league.

HACKER: I really like the game of Mbappe and Messi.

HACKER: I am enjoying watching

ME: Messi is the best.

ME: That team is so fun to watch, but I

don’t get how they always lose out in

champions league so quick.

ME: Do you want to be a hacker for a long

time or is there something else you

want to do as you get older?

HACKER: I can’t do this job with this stress. I will

leave soon. I’m going to the army in a

year anyway. I will do this job for one

more year.

HACKER: I earn money while my peers are

Having fun on the streets. In the

future, this is for my benefit. I’m

making money they won’t see in their

lifetime.

HACKER: I’m collecting.

ME: I think that’s a good plan.

HACKER: Yes 😜

ME: I have to go to work so I have to go.

But thank you for giving my account back.

Have a good day.

HACKER: Have a nice day. Good job easy

*the next day*

ME: Hahaha

HACKER: I took the money, thank you for not canceling.

ME: No problem. I told you I was trustworthy.

HACKER: ❤️
