Some suspicious activity on a twitter account I control, nothing posted, but seems to be signing me up to follow lots and lots of people.
Password changed, people deleted, things seem stable now.

Twitter account activity show the above, does this indicate successful logins? Or attempts at logging in?
Either way, the PC I use appears to be clear, but the email address associated with that account it very very old, and I ponder if it once has a password that might have matched to the twitter accounts password?
They don't brute force hacks on twitter do they? Just pull old lists and see if anything matches? Or what is the most likely explanation for this breach?
