Security Alert: Twitter Porn Names Scam

"Social networking site #Twitter's current top trending topic (things that are twittered the most) has a security hole. The hole is no technical snafu, rather it traces back to human error or sneaking social engineering. The twitter porn names game is a fun distraction that gives you and your friends something to tweet about. However it is actually nothing more then a disguise to get users to publicly post answers to your own online security questions. With that information Web scoundrels can hack into your personal online accounts." - PCWorld
