Celebs such as Pink, Julia Roberts, Rob Lowe and Taraji P. Henson have all shared the fake post that says "Instagram does not have my permission to share photos or messages."
Even U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry fell for the scam. Let that one sink in for a second.
"There is no truth to this post," an Instagram spokesperson told MarketWatch.
In fact, the hoax isn't even new as it's been out in the social media-sphere since 2012.
