Thanks for your comment and for visiting our blog. The problem with Twitter and other social networking sites is that people take their content for granted. There is a high level of trust involved and even the most trusted of sites/friends can be a victim of a malware/phishing attack. As you said, thinking before clicking is a good first step. Links from trusted friends and reputable sites are usually safe but it does pay to be more careful when the origins of shortened links are suspect.

We’ve all seen people, including celebrities & sports stars) get in trouble for tweeting in the heat of the moment or as an ill-thought out joke. But, I never really thought about the fact that with almost every link shortened, you really don’t know where you’re going. (of course, that’s how I got here to this blog) Will have to think about that more before I click on the next link.
