Locked out of my Twitter Account!!!

July 29, 2009 By Nur Ahmad Furlong

A quick warning to all. Yesterday I followed a link to an app posted by one of my tweeps to something called TwitViewer. When I supplied my twitter login details I realized there was something “phishy” about the app.

I saw another message shortly after that warning those who logged into Twitviewer to change their passwords which i did immediately. Twitter then also acted when they saw some phisy activity through this app and auto reset many account passwords.

I’m locked out of my twitter account and a few attempts to get back in has proved unsuccessful. As a precaution try what you can to verify the security of twitter apps before supplying your login details!!!
