Spotting unsafe links on twitter, Reporting these "phishing" links to Twitter as Spam.
Some folks on twitter just cannot play nice. As in ALL online activity, be wary of any links you click on. A recent example of a phishing link can be found in the bio here > https://twitter.com/swtchks017 . (Note: this handle was changed back to @Liberata017 https://twitter.com/liberata017 )
A variation of this same link is in her Main Account here > https://twitter.com/4evrSin .
In this case Twitter is aware that this is an unsafe link and warns you if you click on it.
This phishing link is a service by Bvog(dot)com.
Twitter Support asks that you report links like these as SPAM. It has a How-To here >
