The evil spam folks has now started their craziness on the popular Twitter

A spam attacker can currently trick users into clicking on a link on a malicious or hacked Web site, this link then forces the victim’s Twitter account to automatically set to follow the attacker’s.
This vulnerability could expose users to the spam criminals malware-hosting Web sites. I am sure the more popular that twitter get’s the more the spam criminals will work on ways to scam users for their on evil gain. There might even some time have a Twitter police that scans and monitors Twitter to protect the users.

It is always one bad apple that messes it up for everyone
