S60 PT #4: Identity Theft

SMJHL GM Posting Freak
Well, Ronlain is usually one to be pretty careful with his information. He does all the standard stuff to attempt to keep himself safe from most internet threats that would want to steal his identitiy. No clicking links in emails, not reusing the same passwords, changing them often, etc. He's honestly a model for the security of one's personal information. However, one fateful day he was quite exhausted after practice and laid down on the couch back home to rest. In a daze he saw a text from his teammate, Michael Fitted. It said something about someone posting an embarrassing photo of him on Twitter and it had a link, and when he followed it he was suspiciously prompted to log in, odd considering he was always logged into Twitter on his phone. In his daze he thought nothing of it and logged in, unaware that it was a phishing link and his Twitter credentials now belonged to whoever hacked Fitted's phone and send him the link. Within minutes, there were dozens of Tweets and retweets on his account about various things such as cryptocurrency, various products, and venmo cash scams. Unfortunately for Ronlain, he fell back asleep after inputting the credentials and did not wake up for another hour, plenty of time for the malicious individuals to send out many tweets and also DMs to other players who may also fall for it. He still gets chirped for it on the ice.
