On Twitter, where Payne’s account is under the handle @Real_Liam_Payne, the singer asked fans to stop.  

“Stop trying to guess my password!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My emails going crazy with junk and I need it to make u all nice music for new albums!!” Payne said via Twitter. 

Two days later, he had his account suspended. 

“Instagram if u can please unlock my account as I’ve sent you my passport and I am me and I'd like to use it thank you [thumbs up] much appreciated.” he wrote. 

Payne was most recently spotted in Machu Picchu with band member Harry Styles, as the boys embarked on their South America leg of world tour, “Where We Are.”
