Scott Trench IG hacked

[Bryan Cress]

Scott Trench sent me a IG message today where he pitched his “Portfolio management platform” where I could “earn up to $10k in 14 days with a $3k capital investment.

It is safe to say his IG is compromised. Hope no one falls for this scam and his account is swiftly recovered!

@Joe Splitrock so first of all, the OP is correct. I do not request funds from folks or pitch investment “opportunities” via Instagram.

My Instagram has not been hacked; rather fake accounts that are subtle tweaks of my name keep popping up. My real handle is:

@Scott_Trench

Fake account examples are:

@scott__trench (two underscores)

@scottt_trench

@scott_trencch

Etc

These accounts all block my real handle of course, making it hard for me to search them out.

All we can do is report them. I’m so sorry this is happening. It’s very frustrating.
