WARNING: Twitter Worm Spreading via Direct Messages


2009-09-24

We have received multiple reports that a new, convincing, and dangerous worm and phishing scam is making the rounds on Twitter. Hacked accounts are sending DMs to users and stealing their login information. In fact, one of our own has received one of these direct messages.

Unsuspecting users are receiving DMs with the following text:

rofl this you on here? http colon double backslash videos dot twitter dot secure-logins01 dotcom

If you get this DM, DO NOT VISIT THE LINK. It takes you to a replica of the TwitterTwitterTwitter login page where the hackers will steal your account and use it to send out more infected DMs to your friends.

If you’re one of the unlucky ones to be fooled by this worm, make sure you change your password. Also delete any tweets or DMs that have the link. If you can’t log into your account, reset the password and contact Twitter Support.

This is not the first worm to hit Twitter, but this one is especially dangerous because the login page is convincing and it is spreading via DMs from friends you trust.

When we have more information, we’ll update you with it.

Update: We contacted Twitter and they quickly got back to us. They are aware of the threat and are on the case.

Twitter is some seriously gay shit anyhow.

I'm getting packed and heading to my car

I'm getting ready to go out partying

I'm takin a crapabomb

It is like an outlet for those who need to feel important and have someone follow them

quite creepy when you really apply the Freund perspective
