Girls Generation's Taeyeon has over 6 million followers on Instagram, so you can't blame her for calling out hackers messing with her account. Earlier today, the K-Pop star posted comments on her personal Instagram, revealing that someone was changing her settings.

The translations of the comments allegedly say: "Look at the pictures that were added. If I didn't do it, then who did? I keep getting text messages asking me for my pass code. Please don't do this." The real question is, how did people even get her number?

She went on to explain how she's never enabled the option to automatically add tagged photos on her account. "I blocked automatic adding," she commented. "So there's no way that a photo of the user could come up if I hadn't personally added it. However, ever since the day I asked you all to post a photo of you drinking makgeoli and the last day of the concert, I haven't opened up automatic adding since." At the end of the day, whether you're a K-Pop icon or not...it's never okay to hack someone else's account. Everyone should be able to post on social media freely.
