Sina Technology News, Beijing, March 7, afternoon news, according to foreign media reports, hundreds of Twitter accounts were attacked today, sending a lot of spam about "weight loss" products.

The hacked Twitter account will automatically send the message "I lost 20 pounds in 2 weeks!", And a link to this weight loss product website is also attached. So far, some accounts have sent more than 200 such spam messages.

In addition to some new accounts being hacked, the famous technology expert John C. Dvorak (John C. Dvorak) also unfortunately became a "winner."

So far, it is not clear why these accounts were hacked, and hackers may have hacked these accounts through "phishing" methods. However, since all Twitter messages are sent through an application programming interface (API), hackers do not need to directly access these accounts. In other words, hackers are likely to invade some third-party programs, and then use this to send these spam messages.
