Environment being used is Ubuntu on EC2 and Linux on EC2.

Tried on different AWS EC2 instances, downloads well but then does not unzip.
Just to check I downloaded a zip file from another site and it unzips well, so AWS EC2 should not be the issue.

Commands I tried with 
1. curl https://www.mybb.com/download/latest -o mybb.zip
and then 
unzip mybb.zip "Upload/*"

2. wget --content-disposition https://www.mybb.com/download/latest -O mybb.zip

unzip mybb.zip "Upload/*"

It Downloads well and the error that occurs on unzip command is -

End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.


Please help resolve.

Is there some way to get the installation document corrected, would help newbies from getting lost

Glad it worked! 
Can you please provide a direct link to the documentation that mentions wget via the download/latest link? As far as i'm aware, it doesn't state this in the documentation, only to download the latest package and unpack the filename.zip ?
