instagram OSINT

Good morning guys,
After some fun I had with osint on telegram, I started to think about how to osint on Instagram... so I am searching for possible ways of getting a users account by the users phone or email, indeed I found a way, searching on dumpor with the name of the user, and afterwards checking for the users private information and getting the users obfuscated email or phone.
I will be really thankful for every hint you can give me for the osint thing, probably I will be creating an open-source python OSINT framework.

I never heard that term "osint" so I investigated. Basically it means to scrape public data of a website right?

Not completely. OSINT isn't necessarily scraping. It's finding information about your target (usually some person) from publicly available online data. People can be naive and they leave a lot of their trails on the internet. You can use these trails to find a lot of information about them.

After further investigation that's what I found.

And I also found some cool websites with lots of data.
