Speculation about his health intensified in 2008 when Jobs appeared gaunt at public appearances.

A phishing scam, in 140 characters or less? That’s what we have here, as a phishing scam apparently hit Twitter on Saturday. According to Twitter, If you receive an email notice saying you’ve received a Direct Message with a link that redirects to what seems like Twitter.com, be careful about entering your Twitter credentials.
