To anyone who's been hacked or who has inadvertently followed a link in a phishing message and provided login credentials: 1) Change your Twitter password immediately 2) ALSO change the password for sites (hotmail, Facebook, Flickr) where you use the same login/password combo - I'm sure that's how they got into my Last.FM account (see above) The Twitter phishing messages seem to be making the rounds again.

I'm positive I wasn't fished on Last.FM, but in early December I was on Twitter. I realised and changed my password immediately, but I had been using the same username/pwd combo on Last. Given that the shoutbox messages were very similar to the ones on Twitter, my suspicion is they tried the details they'd got for Twitter against Last.FM. Anyway, that's a lesson for me - I'm off to change all of my passwords to something unique. It’s really very odd. I’m positive I wasn’t fished on Last.FM, but in early December I was on Twitter.

Fortunately I saw that you'd posted this to Hackbash before I followed the dodgy link. Saved by the blog.
