Twitter . . . Grr

[Lyd]

I'm getting a bunch of those messages from Twitter that say that people "are saying really nasty things" about me. I know it's just spam and I don't click on them, but I've been getting quite a few of them lately, and it's just making me want to shut down my Twitter account all together. I hardly use it anymore. Anyone else getting those?

Yes, I've had several today, all from designers.

Dang, I guess I should be glad I don't use twitter, huh? I have an account but I never use it or check it.

[dgreenshield]

yep, I have been getting the notices as well.

I'm getting them too. I dont' really use twitter anymore.. i just use it to follow nascar people, so I don't want to shut down my account, but it's getting really annoying. :|

actually just got one too... I told the designer i wasn't sure if it was her or spam...

ughh more reasons to hate social media.

Unfortunately now that twitter is more mainstream, more and more accounts are getting hacked. They need to change their passwords and unauthorize any third-party sites that they may have allowed to access their account. Here's a good article from huffington post about it.

OMG I thought it was just me! Been happening for about a couple of days already and it's driving me bonkers! I decided to get back into Twitter and linked it to several other of my social media accounts so having to wade through this crazy spam is annoying.
