No, your iPhone is not hacked. iPhone hacks cost millions of dollars and require a high level of expertise and very specialized equipment.


Unless you are a high profile and valued target, you just aren't worth the time, money and effort it takes to hack your iPhone.


It sounds more, like one of your accounts was compromised, they got your details including your phone number from there, and are trying to scam you.


You may want to secure your instagram account first.

Sounds like your Instagram account has been compromised. Contact Meta to secure your account. Your phone has not been hacked and you are receiving calls/messages because your phone number has been made available from a third party and it may have even been Meta.


Phones number are widely available on the internet and also information about the owner can be found by googling the phone number.

Sorry there are no hacks/malware/spyware/virus for a non jailbroken phone.

Your instagram account can be hack, you'll need to contact their support.

Getting spam calls or texts is not considered a hack, everyone gets them.
