My wife and I started up a small reselling business, based on our name. The dotcom for it was previously owned, but they let the domain lapse, but they still have the Twitter account (that has the web address we now own in their profile; they haven't posted since 2016). I tried an approach similar to the article, but they apparently used Gmail to set it up. (I reached out to them to buy it to no response; I assume that Twitter account has been orphaned)
