Twitter : Mot de passe réinitialisé pour les comptes exposés au phishing

Certains utilisateurs de Twitter ont la surprise de recevoir une étrange notification de réinitialisation de mot de passe. Cette mesure de sécurité a été prise par le service de microblogging suite à des soupçons d’attaques visant à récupérer les informations personnelles de twittos (phishing).

Hey there.

Due to concern that your account may have been compromised in a phishing attack that took place off-Twitter, your password was reset. Please create a new password by opening this link in your browser:
https://twitter.com/account/password_reset?email=****

This will reset your password. Remember to choose a strong password that is a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. Do not reuse your old password.

As a reminder, you should be extraordinarily suspicious of any third party that offers to artificially inflate your follower count. We do not endorse any of these sites.

Please make sure to:

Scan your computers for viruses / malware, especially if unauthorized tweets continue to be posted in your accounts even after you’ve changed the password.

Check the Connections page at https://twitter.com/account/connections and revoke the access privileges of any third party applications that you do not recognize.

Avoid providing your username and/or e-mail and password to untrusted third-party sites.

Remove any updates that you did not post personally; leaving these updates can result in your account being re-suspended.
