Sunshine Cruz's Instagram account is currently deactivated.
Sunshine Cruz's triumph against her hacker from Turkey happened to be short-lived as the actress shared that her account may be temporarily deactivated for the time being.
On Facebook, the 43-year-old actress shared that her hacker is asking her to pay 1000€ (approximately PhP 58,000) or her Instagram will be “deleted.”
“Akala ko tapos na ito kagabi,” Sunshine wrote.
“Family and friends, if my Instagram suddenly disappears, just please be careful. Baka kasi gamitin ang account ko to do bad things. Please ingat po.
“I've been trying my best to resolve this but sadly, ayaw niya magpatinag.
“It's not easy to reach Instagram's Help Center. Kahit anong palit ko sa e-mail at cellphone number ko, he reset my Instagram.
"Then, once makapasok ako, nagagawa niyang palitan ang e-mail sa na-hack niyang G-mail account ko.
"Alam na rin niya ang cellphone number ko na naka-input sa hacked G-mail ko.”

In the comments, Geneva Cruz felt worried about her cousin's online safety and said, “Grabe cous! We aren't safe online!
“Pwede din hindi taga-Turkey 'yan. They can manipulate where they are… unless ipa-track natin talaga sa government. Trust me, taga dito yan.”
Sunshine replied, “Cous, Poland ang cell number na 'yan pero Turkey ang IP address niya. Naka-VPN siya.”
