I got a strange but inticing DM Tweet today.

“I made $426.23 online today with (link).”

I admit I clicked on it but fortunately for me nothing happened. I have  since received further information suggesting that this is a new Twitter scam.

DO NOT CLICK THE LINK or links that appear like it.

After tweeting with a number of friends on Twitter, its apparent that this is another Twitter money scam and its moving throughout Twitter fast.

NOTE: The Direct messages were likely not sent from the users themselves but by account hijackers.

Here’s some tips to help you and how you can help others from being scammed:

1. Do not click the link

2. Change your password immediately

3. Do not give out your Twitter user name and Passcode

4. Report the account to @Spam

Planning for an event is never an easy task, getting people there is an ever bigger challenge. The key is planning.

My plans for the first Accelerated  Twitter Success went rather out of the window when Jago was born and I have been playing catch up since then. I’ve been keeping a diary of the activities on my Postureous blog and at Social Media Tribe.

Through this diary: My Social Media Challenge I have received various suggestions and support. Yesterday after one of my guests swapped her attendance on to the December date I had a brain wave. Inspired by an email from Christopher Howard it occurred to me that the best form of promotion is referral and recommendation by people on the course or who want to attend but can’t afford it. So I set up a basic Send A Friend mechanic.

The FREE option

If you send a friend to my course and they pay the full price( £127 before Oct 30th, £167 after) then you can come for free. Lovely I hear you say. All you need to do is let me know when they have purchased their ticket. Alternatively, email me and I can set you up an affiliate link so you can promote the event without having to follow up to find out if they bought a ticket.

The Half Price Option

Simply decide with a friend or colleague that you both want to come. Buy the first ticket at the event page Accelerated Twitter Success, then email me to request your second ticket.

Simple and equally lovely.

Twitter has launched a great new feature called Lists. It does what it says on the tin in that you can create lists to group people that you follow. This makes it very easy to put all their messages into one Twitter fall. For anyone that uses Seesmic or Tweetdeck this will already be a vital part of your Twitter experience but of course, those groups that you make are your private groups. The addition of Lists to Twitter’s service (it seems) will allow you to search for lists that you want to be part of – this will help target followers.

Two services that already exist and provide a great means to create lists are WeFollow and TweepML. Twitter lists are only available to a few select users at present, one of which is Tech Crunch, who has more details on Twitter Lists.

As you’ve probably gathered by my Twitter name and this website that I am Jonnie Jensen, my business is Tmandi and I am an Internet Marketing Advisor. I started with the word Consultant but it just felt a bit too ‘high and mighty’. I’ve worked with consultants before and I don’t believe the businesses I work with want talk about what needs doing, they want to get on with it.

So that’s what I do. I use the experience I have gained working in internet marketing since 2000 to help businesses succeed. I make it simple. I listen to your business objectives and together we work out what your company needs to do. Then I put it in place. If you need a supplier I’ll choose it, if your staff need training I’ll take care of it and as your internet marketing activities develop I’ll be there to take you to the next stage.

I live in Maidstone, Kent and a have a real commitment to the business community here embracing internet marketing. I recently moved back here with my wife and son because we are about to have another baby. The schools here are great and there is a real family based community spirit. I’m 35, I enjoy running, cycling and generally keeping fit. My wife Deb and I love to cook and as much as possible spend time with our friends and family.

My tweets (that’s Twitter messages) will be a broad selection that I hope you enjoy. You can expect:

• Internet marketing news & tips
• Social media applications & tips
• Retweets from businesses in Kent
• Retweets from social media experts
• Conversations with interesting people
• Event announcements
• Anything funny from within my network
• Occasional quotes, recipes and fitness tips
