I don't have a Twitter account at all, don't ever want want either.
Would like some Computer experts on here / Twitter members if they could advice please ?.
Just wondering if this is a scam, even with my email provider saying it is possibly a scam, or if someone has managed to get my email address, and on twitter claiming to be me, and fecccking using my address ??.
Anyway without signing onto this Twitter site checking out if someone is using my email address without my permission ??.

If you type the visible link into a new IE window it defaults to the Twitter login page. Right click the link and select copy shortcut, then paste it in a notepad document see what it says. I'll bet it's not what the text on the link says!

Thanks for the tip though, I'll try to remember this if there's a next time. :y
