Desktop apps are not yet 100% trustworthy - Jason Carreira

Of interest... i didn't send this. So is this a test case for someone to show they can use my account? Note the source of the tweet isn't from any app I've used before. - Louis Gray

You didn't send this? Someone else did? - Hutch Carpenter

That's more than a little alarming. - Derrick Burns

I didn't send that. I only saw it because I was looking at Summize. I've never sent a note to that person, don't know who they are and I've never used that client to my knowledge. - Louis Gray

Louis, did you change your password after using Twitter Karma? - Sharon Rosen

Wow. That's kind of crazy. - Candace

See... this would be enough for me to seriously evaluate Twitter's reliability - Bwana ☠

Odd, the same tweet shows up on @tocaya. I guess twitter has found a new and scary way to fail. - Shawn McCollum

Tell Twitter about this. Pretty serious. - Mohamed J

Mo, its only serious if its not password related, unless someone is trying to make a point - Kyle A Koch

Shawn is right in that tocaya probably sent that, and it got cross-posted under my ID as well. I'm leaving it for posterity. Heh. - Louis Gray

Kyle: Impersonation *is* serious, even if it was unintentional. This is internal to Twitter imho. - Mohamed J

wow....new ways to suck...thanx twitter - Anthony Farrior

Louis: whoa, that's not good...what's up with that?! - Susan Beebe

Louis, consider changing your password if you didn't already. Just to make sure. - Jordan Hofker

Seems to me your account has been compromised I would suggest changing your password, I seriously doubt if it's twitters fault... I'll be the first to talk about the problems they have but I don't agree with this one. - Jayson Flint

that is *not* good. man, can this get any worse... - Zee.

that is pretty freaky - don't like - Marco(aureliusmaximus)

Hey, before we all have our usual gang up on Twitter, is it possible that there is a problem on BeTwittered's end? Perhaps BeTwittered is getting its signals crossed. - Ontario Emperor

Ontario, unless betwittered has louis's id and password in their db or bypass's the api security that requires an id an password, I doubt it's betwittered's issue. The tweets came in almost 3 hours apart, so it could be part of twitters constant db issues, or a cache issue that will go away next time the cache is refreshed. - Shawn McCollum

Either way, I won't do anything unless it happens again. - Louis Gray

Here's what I wrote (before I saw shawn's comment): http://mrontemp.blogspot.com/2008... - Ontario Emperor

Post updated. - Ontario Emperor

This happened to me last week. Screenshot >> http://img.skitch.com/2008071... - Mike Doeff

@Mike - that same post you screenshotted just appeared in Twitter from someone I subscribe to here (Susan) and I don't remember her posting it. - Candace

Why do I feel like yelling "Awww man! Game Over, Dude! GAME OVER!" - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF

Guys, it has been "game over" for months. Forgive me for blaming the victim, but why are you sticking around on Twitter? You're inviting further abuse. Rarely has a free service so deserved to fail. - Chris Baskind

That's definitely not good. You should raise this Louis so that the twitter team can trace this down. If this is not a password thief, this is a serious problem. - Edwin Khodabakchian

I now have some problem!! augh!!! --> see screenshot here --> http://friendfeed.com/e... - Susan Beebe

strange...that link works great for me ..odd. try this instead http://moourl.com/nalfn - Susan Beebe
