Is it even possible to secure Instagram while buying it?

Hey people, thanks for reading this. I hope I will find solution for my problem. Few days ago I “bought” Instagram account. I sent money via PayPal to seller. He sent me credentials, of course Instagram and Og Email. I told him to remove his phone and email from Gmail and from Instagram before I try to log in. I logged into Gmail, I went into Security and changed first password, then added my recovery email and phone number. When did this 3 changes it needed me code from his number that he removed from Gmail. Then I logged into Instagram, changed password, added my fresh gmail and verified it, also added and my phone number. I deleted Instagram emails from Inbox ( That say email changed … ) because of security, emails with recover links ( valid for 15 days I think ). I thought this is everything I need to do but no, when I woke up I was logged out from Instagram. When tried to reset Instagram password it sent reset link to some mail I see for first time. There was no email from Instagram that say email changed on my fresh gmail or on Og mail. I couldn’t do anything. Do you know what should I do more to Secure this Instagram. Also I had one bad situation few weeks ago, I was scammed by fake middleman, he took my account and I couldn’t recover it so it looks like it is possible to secure gmail and instagram but I don’t know how. That Instagram he stole from me, when I tried to reset password on instagram it needed code from og mail, I gave it to “middleman” too. When tried to click Forgot password on Gmail it said like We don’t recognize this device ( I was logged in for 3 weeks I think ). It was impossible to recover. I tried on few devices same thing, Gmail doesn’t recognize device. Can someone explain this? I will probably win Dispute but this waste my time
Thank you!

Are you sure the email he gave you was the original one?
You can always ask him before any deal to send a screnshot proving he is giving you the original email.You can find this by loging into IG from any computer and going to privacy settings.
Also after you buy one account try to change email at least 2 times,it should make the original email useless.
If its the original email try adding two factor authentification to both email and IG account when you secure them.

Yes bro, I asked him to screenshot it and yeah he gave me og email. Please take care, someone could scam you too guys. I hope we will find solution together

Damn! This is horrifying.

Was the OG email ever changed before you purchased the account?

Are you talking about OG email here?
