Twitter Phishing Scam Spreading via Tweets and DMs
From Mashable social media guide:
It looks like a Twitter phishing scam that we reported on last month has re-emerged today. This morning, I was greeted by a direct message saying “you’re on this vid” with a link. Still groggy, I clicked it, and quickly realized it was likely a phishing scam.
And, it most definitely is, as Twitter search reveals lots of users spreading the same message – presumably after logging in on the phishing site – and others tweeting about receiving the same DM that I did. The site in question looks just like Twitter, but a quick look at the address bar reveals it clearly is not.
