The trust factor is lacking amidst the fast moving technological world and online users should be careful about their security.
According to the expert at security firm Sophos, the Twitter followers needs to be cautious now to face a new challenge, as from now onwards if you click on the links in the tweets, you might become the victim of the fraud.
The most popular networking site of US has been affected by the Phishing attack leaving the users in a dilemma.
However to play on the safer side, if the users find a URL, having a message "This you???", then just avoid that. Reason? When you click on the link, a login page will appear where the hackers are all set to take away your credentials.
Also they can automatically send the pishing message from the users account after you have been duped.
The word for caution to all Twitter users, when in doubt don't even trust your friends as they could be the hackers in disguise, ready to invade your account and mutilate your privacy.
