I Was Approved In Claiming An Inactive Instagram Account Via Trademark Infringement

I actually made a video explaining exactly how I did it, but I can't post the link here without the post being removed. The account I was claiming was @ zachy and the claim was just approved 3 days ago.
In the video, I explain what I said to Instagram to plead my case, their initial rejection, my response, and then finally my approval.
Important details:
- I was legally granted a trademark on the name by the USPTO before submitting my claim.
- This might not work for a regular person, but should for a business entity.
- The username was inactive and seemingly not in use.
Hoping this will help others who are thinking about going after a taken or inactive account for business purposes.
I'll try to post a link to the video in the comment section but happy to also answer any questions about it here!
