A few months ago, all of my daughter’s social media accounts were -google, Spotify, snapchat and Instagram - were all interfered with. There were attempted sign-ins on her google and Instagram from several US states.
She does not comment on any of their social media accounts, but I have a pic of both my daughters as my Facebook profile pic.
My Facebook is locked down but my profile pic can be seen. If in theory I had had a dispute with someone on a Gardner Facebook page, they could easily have made a connection between me and her - if I had been stupid enough to use my actual name.
Now say around the same time, I had also had a hypothetical disagreement, on another vloggers Instagram page about the Gardners, where they could not delete the comments (which some of you may remember), nasty little fan girls could have looked at my ig and identified my daughters as the only personal accounts on the page I use. In this hypothetical situation I describe, I do know that little fan girls were on my page, because they made remarks in their comments to me about the only picture on my Instagram, which is my dog. Obviously - hypothetically of course- to let me know they had looked at my page.
In any case, we thought nothing of it at the time. Over the years you occasionally get attempted sign-in warnings from different countries. However, hypothetically of course, this was almost every social media account she had. Obviously all passwords etc were changed. Google requested that we update our security settings but due to the number of attempts to enter a wrong password we could not retrieve the account. We live in the UK and she has no contacts in US.
I haven’t shared this hypothetical situation here before for fear of sounding absolutely bonkers and paranoid. However, I am wondering now if someone wasn’t attempting to delete the hypothetical IG comments that they had no control over.
Obviously, I am discussing a hypothetical situation because we are not allowed to talk about real situations, even if they did happen.
