WARNING: Fake Emails From Twitter Are Phishing For Your Personal Info
A new batch of fake emails purporting to be from Twitter is making the rounds, trying to get people’s personal details and make money off of surveys. If you’ve received an email from “admin@twitter.com” asking for account verification details, here’s how to tell if you’re being scammed.
Digital security company Sophos first noticed the offending emails on Tuesday. They were alerted by one of their readers that “Twitter” (which wasn’t really Twitter at all) was sending around emails asking for users to verify their accounts, or else they would be suspended.
As Sophos reports, this email is not from Twitter, but rather from scammers who are trying to get you to fill out surveys.
