Annoyed…Twitter Account Got Hacked
I was just on TweetDeck up and running on one of my screens while I was working on the other screen doing some video editing. When I got a popup message stating my Twitter account changed passwords. I check and it no longer worked. I went asked for a reset. But my account got locked out. Luckily I changed it before the account was damaged.But I broke it testing the password login attempts. So no I have to wait for 60 minutes to see if my account can be opened. I think I got everything changed before the hacker could change anything. So now I am going through and changed a lot of my passwords and make sure everyone is different and strong.

This is weird. I got an email from Twitter this morning saying that I needed to change my password due to a phishing attack. Of course the email made me nervous because I was thinking – how do I know this isn’t spam??
But I changed the password anyway and ran a virus scan on my computer.
I hope nothing was affected.
Maybe this was just a coincidence, but you know that we both hang out at the same spots. lol

Ileane thats a good idea. I didn’t getting the email but maybe, I had the same issue. I going to research a password generator so I can create strong Random passwords for all of my accounts.
