Twitter has just announced that it will be launching a new anti-fishing service. This new feature will allow Twitter’s Trust and Safety team to monitor every single link submitted so that they can prevent phishing attacks. Twitter says that their main focus for this new program is Direct messages since that is where most of the Phishing Links occur. We already know that is has something to do with their twt.tl link shortening service but other than that we don’t have to much information. We’ll update you when we find out more.
