chatwebcamfree.com hacks your twitter account
 

Another Twitter security event seems to be underway, with accounts being accessed and Tweets being sent out reading “hey! 23/Female. Come chat with me on my webcam thingy here www.chatwebcamfree.com.”
Taking a look at Twitter search, it would appear that regular users passwords have been compromised and are having the tweets sent out under their name. This type of scam is common with IM, but hasn’t been seen often yet on Twitter, minus the hacking of celebrity accounts that took place a couple months ago when hackers penetrated Twitter’s customer support system.

There's a group somewhere targetting all things social networking, especially facebook. They grab you with various phishing tricks, then grab your user information from your cookies.

Now that they have that, they can also quickly find your IP, see when you're on and sneak in for some remote access fun if you aren't locked down tight and watching.

It's as nasty as the old back orafice tricks.

It's not a "group."
It's the Chinese government, paying people to do it.
