Beware of Twitter Emails

By Jacqueline Sinex, Tuesday, March 22, 2011

You open your Inbox and bob excitedly in your seat – you have new messages in your Twitter account!

But wait – do not click on that link.

Yes, this is yet another disappointing scam email. It’s not really from Twitter. It’s not really a nice message about how amazing your tweets are. It’s someone who wants you to click on a link to spur some type of negative consequence.

For safety, delete the suspicious “Twitter” email notice, and just visit your Twitter page directly in a web browser. If you truly have messages and re-tweets waiting for you, they will be there.
