Currently there is a spam bot propagating messages, that are dragging in users to a site named “Twitterview” NOTE this is not TWEETERVIEW!

The messages sent by users and fake accounts are this:

I can see who views my Twitter thanks to this new app! http://bit.ly/3hjbmy #TweeterView

NOTE: DO NOT USE THE SITE linked through to. the actual URL is: http://askmatthew.net/twitterview/

This site appears to be a phishing site that gets your Twitter details and then can use those details as they see fit.

The reason we are posting this message is that due ot the popularity of TWEETERVIEW and the similarity in name they have been using a HASHTAG #tweeterview .

We are not associated with this site in anyway and users of Tweeterview can rest comfortable knowing that we use the proper OAUTH authentication and thus do not capture or use your Twitter details at all.

Do not use the twitterview site at http://askmatthew.net/twitterview/ EVER!

Any questions please feel free to contact us via @tweeterview or by using our contact page.

Many people were doing Twitterviews, Twinterviews, Tweeterviews etc using twitter, but they were incoherent and disjointed.

We also saw many blogs that had full transcripts of interviews conducted via email which just seemed to waste the space on the blog, or in main stream press sites where no space was given at all. Tweeterview aims to fill in that space. As well we wanted to stretch the current paradigm of how interviewing is done. The most modern form if it is video interviews, streaming or synchronized using tools like skype. With microblogging growing so fast it seemed crazy that real time interviews were not happening in a ‘prettier’ more friendly way.

While we haven’t released everything we have in mind for it yet, the current beta version are here to learn from, play with and test madly while we perfect the art of tweeterviewing.

This week we released some important upgrades that improved the speed for the people participating in the interview and we have some more tweaks due out shortly.

If you have any feedback or want to know more you are best to tweet to @ireckon or @tweeterview and we’ll get back to you.

If you want to interview us to find out more about what we are doing then heck use tweeterview!!
