The messages above are accompanied with a link which takes you to Twitter phishing website that looks very similar to Twitter. The website’s URL is also made to look very similar to that of Twitter.
Once you are on the website, you will be asked to sign in to your Twitter account because your session has timed out If you enter your username and password into the phishing page, the scammers will redirect you to Twitter and ask permission to install an app which will then send out the roué message as direct message to all your followers and continue spreading the phishing attack.
Please DO NOT enter your username and password since the scammers will then gain access to your account username and password. If you already have done so, make sure to change your Twitter account password immediately. Also remove apps from Twitter to revoke permissions to the rogue app that you granted access to.
