Watch out for Twitter CRAPS! (Crap Apps)

I received a tweet from my friend @paulbritphoto last night asking me about a globe grid app. I figured I would answer today, as I hadn’t looked or discussed any type of globe or geo app in over a two weeks. I had tried a few at the end of June in preparation for an article I’m preparing.

Today, I saw “Me” Tweeting multiple references to http://onlineglobegrid.com - and here are the two tweets http://twitter.com/williger/statuses/2606457038 and http://twitter.com/williger/statuses/2606457208

It appears that http://onlineglobegrid.com place (@onlineglobegrid on Twitter) had Tweeted on my behalf, w/o permission, AND had done this multiple times previously, then covered it up by deleting it. If they had timed this while I was tweeting heavily, I may have not noticed. I logged in after being away for hours and saw a ‘recent tweet’, and got curious.

I immediately went into http://twitter.com/account/connections to REVOKE their access. This event also has me going through the other several places w/access to my account, which I’m carefully reviewing.

The fact that @onlineglobegrid tweeted as a user, then DELETED traces in hopes of being undiscovered is a horrible abuse of user’s trust.

I leave Tweet http://twitter.com/williger/statuses/2606621983 clearly warning: WARNING! http://OnlineGlobeGrid.com &(@onlineglobegrid) is a SCAM! They Tweet using your name w/o permission then delete!
