Even Celebs Started Sharing This Bogus Instagram Chain-Letter Style Update

Panic averted!

It looks likes celebrities with millions of followers got duped by a bogus Instagram privacy scare.

Josh Brolin, John Mayer, Usher,  2Chainz… it’s hard to believe how far this went.

Like a nasty chain-letter, the post included the words ‘deadline today’ and appeared to suggest  Instagram would now have access to use your photos without express license.

Josh Brolin reinforced his message a number of times as blogged by Instagram page ‘Comments by Celebs’

He has since deleted the post

Rob Lowe also got taken in by the frightening thought that Instagram might steal your pics

Yup, Usher too
