Entrepreneur and actor Hrithik Roshan's ex-wife Sussane Khan on Monday took to her social media handle to reveal that her account was hacked.
Sussane, while disclosing that she clicked on an email that looked like it had come from Instagram, warned netizens to stay safe from 'viral thieves' and bandits.
Taking to her Instagram handle, Sussane put out a screenshot of a note that she had written disclosing the piece of news and thanking the photo-sharing app's team for quickly helping her restore her account.
In her note and her caption, Sussane wrote, "My Instagram account was hacked by a fake email pretending to be Instagram. I didn’t realise that it was not authentic and so I clicked on the button. I write this sincere note, please do not click on any dodgy emails or messages. A huge ‘THANK YOU’ to the great team of @Instagram for quickly salvaging the situation and helping me get my account back. Stay safe from viral thieves and bandits (sic)."
Reacting to Sussane's post, several celebrities including television czarina Ekta Kapoor, designer Nikhil Thampi, television actor Arjun Bijlani among others expressed their views.
While Ekta commented that she clicked on a similar email, Nikhil confessed that it's a nightmare. Reportedly, Nikhil's account too was hacked a few days ago. Arjun Bijlani too said that he clicked on a dubious email and figured that it was an attempt to hack his account.
