Hackers trying to get your TWITTER account info! READ & protect your account



I noticed that hackers are trying to get your twitter info.
I received tons of emails "supposedly" from twitter stating that my account was closed or is at risk. These hackers are so DUMB they sent it to one of my emails that I never used on twitter...idiots!

But anyways...just like paypal and twitter scams...DO NOT OPEN THE LINK that is sent on the email. Open up another browser, MANUALLY type in http://www.twitter.com or http://www.paypal.com and IF there is an issue with your account, you will see a notice once you sign in.

AGAIN...DO NOT CLICK on ANY link that is in the email!! It may read something similar to "Click here to log in to your account" DONT DO IT!

Also take a moment to go to your twitter DMs to see messages YOU SENT to others. If you see a bunch of spam you never sent...you've been hacked! Now change your password IMMEDIATELY.

This is the reason I dont check my DMs anymore. It's filled with a bunch of SPAM...from twitter friends who have been hacked. (Hackers log in under your name and blast your friends with DMs about phony products, etc... in attempt to get your friends info)

CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD OFTEN!

I tried to send the info to twitter to warn them of this "spoof" email but twitter's customer service sucks!

Virus is about to HIT hard!!! BE PREPARED! Important info



ALERT FYI TO ALL!
I received this email and I thought I'd share this with everyone so you would know what to look for.

My friend's brother is a very advanced programmer who does computer work
for a living and has a high up status with Microsoft. He doesn't send these if they aren't real. If he says this is for real, it for sure is. Be aware. VIRUS COMING !

Hi All,

I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this
virus!

I checked Snopes, and it is for real. Send this information to everyone you know (feel free to copy and paste and even post on your blogs and statuses)

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!

You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK, regardless
of who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE,
which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer.

This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail
address in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to
send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this
message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.

If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by
a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. This is
the worst virus announced by CNN.

It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus
ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no
repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the
Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.

COPY THIS INFO...E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS .
REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US
