  1. Legitimate Twitter invitation emails do not contain attachments! Delete the faker spam and learn more here: http://t.co/llnBMdf
  2. Please see http://t.co/Y4p9KhK for info on the latest (resolved) attack on Twitter.
  3. We're working on a blog post that'll give more info re: (fixed) XSS exploit; we don't believe any user info was compromised.
  4. We've identified and are patching a XSS attack; as always, please message @safety if you have info regarding such an exploit.
  5. There looks to be some recent phishing attempts. Please check the address bar closely before giving your login credentials.
  6. We're rolling #newtwitter out of the next few weeks. If someone says you can get it by retweeting them, they're lying.
  7. If you clicked on a link and your account tweeted something without your permission, please change your password
  8. Go to http://t.co/2c0IOje for the update
  9. We're sending password resets to accounts posting a fake TweetDeck update; don't download that file!
  10. Another heads-up: If you've received a DM promising you a free iPhone, that, like the iPad, indicates that your friends have been hacked.
  11. If you receive a DM advertising "crazy stuff," it's not legit. Don't enter your password!
  12. We'll be sending out password resets to hacked individuals.
  13. If you've received a message promising you a new ipad, not only is there no ipad, but also your friends have been hacked.
  14. Read more about follower-adder sites here: http://support.twitter.com/articles/68916-following-rules-and-best-practices
  15. We're currently pushing out password resets to users who signed up for 3rd party follower-adder sites linked to suspicious behavior.
  16. You probably know Twitter doesn't send emails selling random software. You can delete these fakes! More info: http://bit.ly/asnPFd
  17. Heads-up: if you receive an email saying that your account will be deleted unless you click on a link, it's not from us.
