Someone else with my name is wreaking havoc with my attempts to control the Twitter account I don’t want.
Obviously, I haven’t been on Twitter other than to stick my toe in briefly, then pull it back out after realising how very cold it is in there. But I can’t work out how to deactivate my account.
I’ve tried many times but it is beyond me, so I have had to stay on Twitter but not actually go on Twitter.
This position was holding up fine, until I started getting emails telling me someone had logged into my account and if that wasn’t me I should do something about it.
Usually, when you get an email claiming something isn’t right, it’s an imposter pretending something isn’t right, and then something really isn’t right as soon as you fall for it, log in and get your identity stolen.
I ignored all these emails, therefore, as they poured in week after week.
