How does X (Twitter) phishing work?

What is a X (Twitter) phishing imitation?

Scammers register domains that look like x.com (with extra words, hyphens or a different extension) and build a fake login page. Victims typically receive an SMS, email or WhatsApp message linking to such a fake domain.

How do you spot a fake X (Twitter)?

Check for unusual domain spellings, requests for personal data or PIN codes, and unusual payment or login requests. Real X (Twitter) never asks for your credentials or PIN via SMS or email.

What does X (Twitter) do against phishing?

Official organisations like X (Twitter) work with hosting providers and the Dutch Fraudehelpdesk to take phishing domains offline. Reporting a domain to Fraudehelpdesk speeds up the process.
