If you suspect that your Twitter account has been hacked, here are some steps you can take to regain control:
- Reset your password: Immediately change your password for your Twitter account. Use a strong, unique password that you haven’t used before and enable two-factor authentication for added security.
- Check your connected accounts: Check if your Twitter account has been connected to any other third-party apps or services. Revoke access for any apps or services you don’t recognize or trust.
- Review your account activity: Check your account activity and look for any suspicious behavior, such as unauthorized tweets or direct messages. Delete any unauthorized content and report the activity to Twitter.
- Contact Twitter support: Contact Twitter support and report the issue. They can guide you through the process of recovering your account and help you secure it going forward.
- Alert your followers: If your account was hacked, it’s possible that your followers may have received spam or phishing messages. Alert them to the hack and advise them to be cautious.
Consider increasing your security: Consider increasing your online security measures, such as using a password manager, regularly changing your passwords, and using two-factor authentication for all your accounts.
