The "Twitter plus" scam app
 

Hi there guys,

I've detected a fraudulent twitter application spreading with the name "Twitter+ Plus" (T+ en Español) url:http://we.usetpl.us/  which ask users for access to their accounts, after being authorized it returns the users to twitter.com so I thought I might share this with you.

My motive to think this app is a scam is that the callback address points to a server with only 2 scripts (http://67.23.166.168/~tb/call.php and redirect.php) which basically do nothing, after a user authorize the app this app tweets a URL inviting users to join the "twitter+ app" such as in the following case:

The ammount of users falling for this "viral" app is huge

Hope you can use this information sort out the issue so I dropped an email to the guys at twitter hoping they'll do something with that.

Please share your thoughts on the comments.
