Fake Alex Twitter account

Post by Emerald »

Just a heads up for everyone, the twitter account 'AlexOL_REAL' (http://twitter.com/#!/AlexOL_R​eal) is fake. How do we know that? Three things...

1) Obvious non english grammar & sentence structure (seriously does any of this sound like it was written by a native English speaker? "I will find many vacation days is not it" "Thank you to the fans for giving me the letters that touch" "Good luck to those who make the patent")

2) account is linked to other fake twitters.

3) If you scroll down a bit, you will see this Tweet:

AlexOL_Real Alex O'Loughlin

this is my official page of Andrea Joy Cook (me) andreacook.skyrock.com
27 Jun via Tweet Button

This Twitter is fake, don't get sucked in. :rose:

Grateful to Alex for Mick, Andy, and McG. :)

It was Lisa Stevens who first alerted me to it, and yeah, this account is so obviously fake. :slaphead:

I think Alex stating "I'd rather light myself on fire before doing social networking" pretty well says it all. He's not going to have a twitter account, ever.


ETA: Looks like the account has already been deleted.

Except,of course, for that social network he said he was going to invent -- Twitface. :rolling:
