I received an E-mail message
informing me that someone had posted something about me on twitter; the message
came with a “click here”in order to view the twitter mention.
Although the email feels suspicious, I decided to play along; when I clicked on the “click here” link I was directed to the Twitter Sign On page with the message “Your session has timed out, please re – login.”
As I looked at the URL address this site has, I got the whole idea.

Before you type in your credentials to login to any website, look closely at the URL. Don’t fall for these silly tricks.
facebook , twitter, hotmail and many other websites use https and not http in their “Login Page”.
It is a very good idea to look for https before you login.
