Twitter as most of us especially if you are in the online world knows how easy it is to use twitter. And how it can turn from our daily normal routine to update or tweet to making use of twitter power to have some bucks out of it. But then we do have few mistakes we committed that might end up being spam out of twitter. WebProNews posted points on how can a spammers have your email harvested and such a way that this spammers can use to promote their non-sense products and the like.
The post actually reminds everyone who post, update and use services not just twitter but other sites to not divulge any private information for spammers to capture and be used for their malicious act. As a reminder, don’t divulge personal and private info like your credit card and bank information to anyone, you might end up being broke without you knowing it.
Back on twitter, some spammers can also tweet different username list by just directing the promotional tweet to any username on twitter. Better yet, if there is a link included on the tweet or update, don’t click on it unless you know the user who sent it and you are following the user who sent you the update.
We can’t blame twitter about it because other sites are not excluded on this spammers with their malicious act. We just need to take some extra precaution while we surf online.
