Instagram added a phishing-prevention tool to its security settings in the form of an Emails From Instagram option that will give people access to any authentic communications they have received from the Facebook-owned photo- and video-sharing network.

Clicking on Emails From Instagram will bring up two tabs:

Security, which displays any emails sent by Instagram to the user over the past 14 days related to account security and login matters.
Other, which displays any other emails from Instagram to the user over the past 14 days.
