If you’re a user of Instagram, then you’re likely aware of the company’s deletion policy. If an account is deleted by Instagram for any reason, including but not limited to violating its terms of service, it’s automatically deleted and cannot be restored. If you’re curious about how to see deleted Instagram accounts, here are some tips:

  1. Log in to your account and click on the “Accounts” tab. This will take you to a list of your current Instagram users.
  2. Scroll down and look for the “Deleted Accounts” section. This will list all of the accounts that have been deleted by Instagram for any reason - including but not limited to violating its terms of service.
  3. Click on one of these accounts and it’ll be taken up in a new window that’ll allow you to view their deleted posts and photos as well as their contact information (if any).
