I run a small consultancy business (I don't think I can name it here because of this board's rules on advertising and soliciting) which specialises in viral marketing and social media strategies. As such, our Twitter account is central to our business model. However, this account has been hacked, and is now posting spam links in tweets and direct messages, mostly advertising a "work from home, get rich quick" scam. I have been trying to delete the spam as soon as it appears, but it just keeps coming back. Also, I have changed the account's password twice, but this has failed to stop the spam. What is happening? The reputation of my business is being ruined by this, and a number of our clients have abandoned us in disgust. What can be done?

This question is going to sound really fucking stupid... but have you tried changing your password from a computer that isn't already infected with a workfromhome virus?

Judging by your position as a marketer, neither have you. In fact, you're a detriment to society.
