Easy hack to leech email Id’s on Twitter
Do you like this story?
Hi friend's,I found this trick something useful while i am on twitter searching for new profiles to follow.But "Please Don't Use These Method For Spamming Other's Or Any Other Related"
Now,
is this a security issue ? Not really. Because these folks voluntarily
published their email IDs on their profiles. But as long as these are
valid ID’s, this is a gold mine for email marketers..err I mean spammers
!
So,what do you do now!!!....? Just go to your twitter id and then change your email id privacy Setting's..I Mean Keep your email id Hidden.It will save you from spam
Well,
this isn’t exactly a hack, but nevertheless lets you reap a load of
valid email Id’s off Twitter. If you’re a spammer / email marketer you
may know what that means.
Typically,
people who’re concerned about privacy would not publish their email ids
on twitter. But there are many who does. I assume they’d like some
attention, which is why the ids are published on their profiles.
However, if you go to Twitter people search and do a simple search on “gmail.com” (See Example Here), you’ll get a boat load of email IDs.So,what do you do now!!!....? Just go to your twitter id and then change your email id privacy Setting's..I Mean Keep your email id Hidden.It will save you from spam
