More Mikeyy worm madness on Twitter

The latest cross-site scripting worm urges Twitter to hire Mikeyy Mooney, the suspected author of at least the earlier attacks and give a phone number. Journalists who have spoken to 17-year-old Mooney have confirmed to Sophos that the phone number used in the latest worm messages is genuine. If Mooney is responsible for the worms that have troubled Twitter and its many users today then the correct course of action is for the authorities to investigate him. The worm urges the website to hire Mooney and give him a number, although it is trivial for anyone to discover it if they search on Twitter for archived messages.”]
