Twitter Warns About Phishing

Twitter warns its users about direct messages and direct message email notifications that redirects to what looks like Twitter.com and which criminals are using trying to steal users' usernames and passwords.

Scam message says something like "hey! check out this funny blog about you..." and provides a link. That link redirects to a site masquerading as the Twitter front page.

Twitter tells that it's proactively resetting the passwords of the accounts.
