How to Fake a DM on Instagram

If you want to fake a DM from a celebrity or anyone on Instagram, you can do it using a secret trick without installing third-party apps.

  1. Open Instagram on your phone.
  2. Go to the profile from which you want to fake a DM and tap the Message button.

That said, there is a problem with this. It is a message sent by you, and in the list of chats, it is possible to make out that the message was only sent and not received.  That’s where we need the third-party apps.
