[twitter-dev] Re: SPAM tweets from API, need help!
Thank you Taylor. Yes I changed my password as soon as this thing came on my page. Thank you again for your help :) On Jul 14, 9:45 pm, Taylor Singletary taylorsinglet...@twitter.com wrote: Hi Shabaz, At some point you may have inadvertently (or intentionally) given your login and password to a third party application using what we call basic authentication. You should be able to stop their ability to tweet on your behalf by changing your password. This method of authenticating will be going away very soon, but until then changing your password is the best defense.

I have an account FriendCaller on twitter (twitter.com/friendcaller), and some tweets were being sent through API (clicking the API brings me here. These tweets are related to some shopping stuff. Tweets go like this: I put in my email and got a free $1000 best buy gift card! When I search on google for this exact string with quotes, I saw http://buzztter.com/en/k/emailwhich shows the same tweet tweeted by many users, some profiles even with a very few followers, so I think its not the job of the 'free following' websites. There seem to be some very severe problem, for which I need a solution asap, because I cannot delete the tweets. It comes again and again itself. Help please!
