Remember the post about the person who had been offered $50,000 for his Twitter handle @N, but that had his websites held hostage thanks to a social engineering attack that forced him to hand over the handle? And remember how he had a conversation with the attacker who described the plan in detail? It’s like something out of a Scooby-Doo cartoon.

Well here we go again! On the same site, Ars Technica, is a story from someone else who has the Twitter handle @jb, apparently in high demand by Jonas Brothers and Justin Bieber fans to the tune of $500,000, came under social-engineering attack as well when he started receiving a bunch of emails from Amazon that were password-reset requests.

Unlike the previous story, he was able to (barely) intercept the attack and prevent it, but it’s a good read and offers some good advice for security. You can never have 100% security,but you want to be as close as possible.

Hang onto those Twitter handles!
