Something happened on twitter i've never run into before and i thought it was important to share - and remind everyone - PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNTS!

Got a message from a user - apologizing for reporting me to X/twitter for scamming him!  Then he says in the message - i'm sorry because i realize it wasn't you it's someone else - and you need to help fix this.

I responded back to him - WTF?  YOU report me - and you realize it's was wrong - and you want me to fix it?  I told him you need to fix this yourself.

He responds back with a copy of an email from X/twitter which bascically says that twitter has suspended me - and If i don't reach out to a twitter employee on Discus in the next 12 hours it will be permanent.  Well I looked up the user on Twitter - and surprise!  The other user account was created on 08/2025 - and he's in Uganda.  AND i never received any message/email from twitter.

I immediately blocked and reported the original sender - and the user in Uganda.

Through the whole thing I'm updating twitter Premium Support - and they get back to me saying - here's how to prevent Phishing and Scamming.

I have NEVER seen a phishing/scam thing like this before!  

I've posted this on X/twitter - but obviously - it applies to ALL your accounts!

MAKE SURE YOU PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNT!

1 - create a strong password!
2 - add 2FA/two-factor-authentication to your account!
There are MANY phishing/scam messages on twitter!
Protect yourself so you don't lose access to your account! 

Stay safe online out there!

Glad you caught that instead of falling victim to that. Seriously fuck those scammers straight to a CIA black site where souls beg for a quick release from life

It’s actually a common scam across multiple platforms. 
 

Anytime they tell you or say you need to message somebody on a different platform, it’s a scam
