Care to elaborate on how it might have been compromised?

I rather refrain from speculating as I truly have no idea! As I describe in my blog post, I just got an email saying "someone" had logged into my account from a new device and then I was kicked out (as that user then changed password and email presumably).

You still have access to your phone number? So not been sim-swapped hacked?

I guess we will find out (I hope) how it happened.

But surely there should be some automatic red flags with Twitter if an account changes name, email and starts spamming... Especially if verified!
