Twitter: Have you clicked on the malicious link Justin Bieber?

There are some days, the Twitter account of Justin Bieber has been hacked and shared a malicious link. The particularity of this account: 50 million followers.

The Canadian singer Twitter account was hacked by what appears to be Indonesian spammers. They used the hacked account to disseminate messages in Indonesian and especially a strange link.

What is serious in this story is the account of the Canadian singer is currently the second most followed Twitter account in the world. Indeed, the latter is followed by 50 million people. So we imagine the number of tweets who have seen and clicked on the link, just for those 15 minutes - after which the team Bieber seems to have regained control of the account.

According to our colleagues at The Hacker News, it would be a link that redirects users to a malicious application. Also, if you're a fan of Justin Bieber (right?) And unfortunately you click this link suspect, it is strongly recommended that you change your password and review the list of Twitter applications that you have authorized.
