I registered a few Twitter accounts as well. Approximately 10 or so.
Here's what happened :
I used my accounts and Twitter kept growing and growing.
I updated my personal account several times a month.
Another one was updated on a daily basis.
My other accounts usually got updated every few months.
Then one day I got a DM from someone asking me whether I was interested in selling the account he was sending a DM to.
I told him I had no intention of selling. Thank you for asking.
I didn't even ask him to name a price cause I wanted to use the account on one of my projects. So whatever his price was going to be, I couldn't care less.
Fast forward a few months of inactivity and it turns out I can no longer access my account AND a big media company is using it.
I was shocked but I remembered the guy's name so I Googled it.
It turns out he was the CEO of the media company who hacked my account !
I should clarify he probably didn't hack it. The password was just too difficult so he must have pulled a few strings in order to get it done.
