W3top loosers

Take a look at this site notice anything familiar about it? Yep, that would be my “Twitter”http://www.twitter.com username and also my tweets. However that is definitely not my picture (it’s one of my friends) and it’s given false information about me such as that I live in Lancaster (I don’t) and that I’m seeking women (I’m a little old and tired to be playing the gigolo game). I don’t mind my tweets being aggregated by a third party but I don’t like my online persona hijacked.

It turns out that w3top is some online dating site that thinks it’s cool to steal other peoples personas in order to try and bulk up their fake ‘userbase’ for one reason or another. I very much doubt those reasons could be for the greater good of man.
