Third party Instagram app removed from app stores for stealing passwords

If you fell prey to the allure of InstaAgent, a third party Instagram app that promises to track who viewed your Instagram account, you might want to change your Instagram password

The foul intentions of Who Viewed Your Profile - InstaAgent (that's the app's full name) were discovered by Peppersoft developer David Layer-Reiss, who shared his findings on Twitter. According to him, InstaAgent sends unencrypted usernames and passwords of its users to an unknown server and posts images on users' profiles without permission
