Was your Twitter account compromised?

twitter_hacked_

Last night – Twitter disclosed in a blog post that its systems had been attacked in the past week by an unidentified group of hackers. The attackers may have had access to limited user information – usernames, email addresses, session tokens and encrypted/salted versions of passwords – for approximately 250,000 users.

The following items are a few ways of detecting if your account was compromised:

  • Noticed unexpected Tweets by your account
  • Seen unintended direct messages (DMs) sent from your account
  • Observed other account behaviors you didn’t make or approve (like following, unfollowing, or blocking)
  • Received a notification from Twitter stating that “You recently changed the email address associated with your Twitter account.” (even though you haven’t changed your email address)

If you’ve answered YES to any of the above, please take the following steps:

  • Change your password
  • Revoke connections to third-party applications
  • Update your password in your trusted third party applications

    In the game the AK-47 gets a 30 round magazine and you can carry 3 of
    those which give you a total of 90 shots for each game round.
    There are no goals other than what you make-up yourself.
    First up on the list is the Deagle, or in the real
    world the Desert Eagle.

    A healthy and physically fit individual who cycles
    once a week may experience less knee pain than an individual who cycles four times a week.
    Switching between the SIM cards used to be turning the phone on or off the GSM Dual Sim now have a menu, you can easily switch between SIM cards without turning off the
    phone. If you have a milder kind of injury you are most likely able to benefit from this kind of brace.
