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 Holly

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 Holly

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

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
