Hereof, why am I getting random instagrams?
Click on one of the random accounts that follows you, and more often than not, you'll see that the account has hundreds or thousands of followers, but no posts — or just a few posts of its own. Or, it's set to private. This is because many of the random followers you get aren't real people or companies; they're bots.
Similarly, why are fake Instagram accounts following me? Bots make ideal fake followers, since they can follow a large number of accounts at once. “Bot accounts are often brand new. A lot of times their profile information is incomplete," he says. "Another telltale sign is if the profile doesn't have many connections, especially if it has been around for while.
Likewise, how does Instagram come up with suggested friends?
Use of hashtags – You can get a friend suggestion based on the hashtags on your profile or your posts. Mutual friends – Instagram often suggests friends of a friend to you. If you have one or more mutual connections with a person, they will likely appear higher on your list of suggestions.
How do I stop getting added to group chats on Instagram?
If you do find yourself getting added to numerous group chats, you can at least disable alerts for these events on your phone. Open up the Instagram Settings screen from the Profile tab, then tap Notifications, then Direct Messages, and then turn the Group Requests checkbox to Off.
