Here's a warning to you all. If you get a tweet that invites you to visit a website to find out who is stalking you on Twitter DO NOT DO SO. This site asks for access to yout Twitter account. Then uses it to spam your followers. I know, since I had the spam, that several of our members have already been caught.
If you have inadvertently done this, the way to stop it is to change your Twitter password.

Hi Martindn and All Yes, I was one of those caught!  However, Twitter has quickly identified this scam, disabled my password and emailed me asking to reset it. Good work by them. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifMartin |

Hi Martins  and everyone! As this is a general Twitter problem not specifically related to Hayley's Twitter, I have changed the thread title to something that might be more meaningful. Thanks for advising us Martin D, and for moving it, Martin! Cheers, Dave  |

Hi All
This problem has reoccured again, this time from Steve's twitter account. If you get a direct message from Steve including a website link, do not follow it!

Hi Martin,
This time it was a normal tweet rather than a DM, advertising a weight loss product.
