Graham Cluley of Sophos posted a blog warning Twitter users about a widespread phising attack on Twitter.
The attack is designed to steal usernames and passwords of unsuspecting members.

The direct message include phrases like this:

Lol. this is me??
lol , this is funny.
Lol. this you??

And followed with a link in the form of

http://example.com/?rid=http://twitter.verify.bzpharma.net/login

The “example.com” is said to vary. Security experts advised Twitter users not to click any link that directs to bzpharma.net. This video will help you understand more about this newest Twitter phishing attack.
