The people behind the Twitter account might not've been behind any successful hacks though.

Yep, who would share their account information via twitter anyway?

You'd be surprised. If someone tweets them asking for help they could sucker them into messaging them their account and password etc or linking to a phishing site.

Exactly ...and probably they have done a lot of damage through DM.

It is suspended now. I wonder how he get those followers.

Probably bough them. There are people on these forums that sell followers and retweets etc.

just be careful with phising attemps
they can achieve 10k  followers in the blink of an eye. there are a lot of services like that.

That guy sells 5k followers for $10.

So, the whole attack costs just about $100, or even lower if he got some bulk order discount...

I wonder if they made their money back?

Just see how many blockchain.info account thefts are reported every week. If they can pocket a part of it, it is far more than $100.
