FAO Martin. Possible impersonation on Twitter.

Just had an email through from Twitter; a new member with no followers and no tweets as yet, username MALEMSE and calling themself martin l has just begun to follow me. Just thought I'd give you a heads-up in case it's someone who starts impersonating/defaming you. Unless it's you, in which case I'm honoured to be your second only stalkee. But I doubt it.:rotfl:

    MALEMSE - Martin wants to reassure us he is male! :p
  • Unless it's meant to be short for "Malem, South East" - doesn't Twitter have a maximum length limit on user names (I don't use it myself)?

    Twitter is for twits :D
  • I only use Twitter for competitions anyway and there's nothing personal on there so I don't really care but just thought Martin should be aware in case it turns out to be something inappropriate.
