TWITTER HACK UPDATE

After a week of trying to address my Twitter hack, I just woke up to find it’s happening again. I’m locked out of my account, no access, scam tweets on my profile.

I have tried EVERYTHING to get my account back to normal:
- Yubikey
- Changing password 10 times
- Changing email on account
- Remove 3rd party apps
- Remove developer apps

NOTHING IS WORKING

I keep asking for help and getting nothing. I put a lot of time into my account. After 10 years of work in this industry Twitter is what allowed me to be recognized.

It’s the only reason people care about my work and now it’s being stolen and it’s honestly so fucking embarrassing and painful.

I know many people will laugh. They feel like I deserve it for running an engagement account.

Anyway, I am asking for help. I honestly have no idea what to do

If you need any advice just pop into the DMs. I reserve the right to be wrong though.. If you want to expand who to follow use #grownostr or #bitcoin.

Start with posting on Nostr anything you post over there. It's easy and gives you a backup and people here would love it.

Sorry to hear that. I’m not laughing; hope you get it sorted. I’d be lost on a fix also.

Not an expert in these matters but it would appear more than just your twitter acc is done if what you already tried isn't working. Suggest contacting security/privacy pro to assist with recovery.

Strongly suggest you wipe your OS and do a fresh install of everything

Sorry, Pete. Hope you can get it sorted and secure. FWIW, I love your tweets. 🫂 In the meantime you should set up your account for receiving zaps—this is half of the fun on #nostr 1) download / open wallet of Satoshi 2) hit “receive” copy the lightning address (looks like an email) 3) pas...

I'm sorry for you. I follow you here on Nostr and have never used a Twitter account to inform me. There was a time one could read twitter feeds w/o an account. It was always suspicous to me using my real identity for registration on Twitter. Let's overcome this communication age.

Your computer or phone is compromised at a lower level, likely with keyloggers / screen capture. You should wipe them and re-install / factory reset.

1. Fresh hardware 2. Fresh installs 3. Fresh email 4. Fresh password on everything (from new device)

Really sorry to hear that, wishing you the best and welcome here! As I’ve learned about this place I’ve found there are countless people willing to help!

I have no idea of how to help,but I am certainly not laughing.

twitter has 2 factor auth by authenticator. easy to recover and hard to hack

Possible your computers/phones/cloud might be more compromised than you think.

The yubikey won't help you if your passwords are weak or stored insecurely. This has a ladder effect on your 2fa including email. Id create a new bitwarden account with a new password with sufficient length - write it down on paper if you have to - store it on none of your devices, Also be sure ...

Accept that you got rekt. Dust yourself off and leave Twitter. It blows. Join Nostr and rebuild while riding the wave of a new protocol. Also, stay humble and stack sats.
Dash · 149w
Nostr fixes this. Twitter is counter to the free and open source movement and as a bitcoiner you should have known that getting rugged was just a matter of time. It's like someone coming on here and complaining their sats got frozen by Coinbase and asking for help. The advice is don't use trusted ce...

Are you sure that your computers and phones are still safe? Sounds like a Luke scenario. Shut down everything, get a clean phone/computer and try to recover using only that device. See if that sticks. And you can move your reputation over to another account if that's necessary, that's the minimum ...

Hacked even with a YubI hardware key? No idea mate. Never heard of that level of fuckey before now. Best of luck

You have to deactivate your account if you regain access for a few days and nuke everything associated with it. Update with new contact details and possibly a new phone number you have stored away for online accounts that require it (No SMS 2FA obviously if it can be avoided) Haven’t heard of a ...

I sympathize with our bitcoin queen mother, unfortunately I don't have experience with twitter in this way. Its been years. This brings up a concern in regard to investing in your nostr identity. Yes we have NIP05, but that only passes the buck to a different identity mechanism (DNS.) One could be m...

Pete — what’s the latest on your twitter hack? Any advice you can share?
Lyn Alden · 145w
Pete, I know you are back on Twitter now. I am happy about that; I shared your notes here when you were cut off. You have talked about how helping a bitcoin circular economy form is important. I think a decentralized uncensored speech circular economy is similarly important. And bitcoin helps mak...
