Someone keeps sending Instagram two-factor authentication codes to my phone number, even though I'm not trying to log in. I already have two-factor authentication enabled on my account, and the messages appear to come from Instagram's legitimate code-sending number. Is there a way to stop these texts or determine whether someone is trying to access my account?

Receiving a code doesn’t mean anyone has accessed your account. The code is a security step, and without it they shouldn’t be able to complete the login. Still, check your account’s recent login activity, change your password if you’re concerned, and never share the codes with anyone.
It may simply be another person who entered your number by mistake while setting up or recovering their account. If they keep requesting codes, the messages may continue until they realize the number is wrong. Blocking the sender usually won’t help if the texts come from Instagram’s official service number.
