How to protect your twaynet account from fake email?
Be cautious of emails that ask you to submit personal information such as your Twaynet member ID or password. Some members reported that persons not related to Twaynet tried to pose themselves as Twaynet representatives and sent emails to our members. These messages typically request Twaynet members to re-enter their member ID and Password through return email or a web site,which purports to be the Twaynet site. The request was made under the pretense that the member's Twaynet account may be deactivated (or other similar situation) if they do not re-enter their Twaynet ID and Password. Through this ploy, the perpetrators attempted to hijack private and confidential information from Twaynet members.

Twaynet is committed to keeping trading on the Internet as safe as possible. However, there are occasional situations where people with intent to defraud others invade the Internet. We believe that it is our duty to alert you of possible tricks employed by fraudsters to obtain confidential information from you.

Please be assured that, as long as you do not give out your Twaynet ID and Password to unauthorized persons, your Twaynet account is secure and safe. Twaynet personnel will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. If we request information from you, we will always direct you back to the Twaynet site.

Twaynet pages that ask you to provide your member ID and password can be identified by the address in the Address/Location area of your web browser. Most Twaynet.com sign-in pages can be identified by addresses that begin with "http://login.twaynet.com/" or "http://www.twaynet.com/".

If you receive any communication from persons requesting that you re-enter your Twaynet ID and Password through return email or a web site, please email the message to us. Please send us the email with the complete message text and full header or forward us the entire message using the forward function of your email program. When forwarding the message, do not change the subject line, send additional text, or forward the message as an attachment. Forwarding the message in this manner will allow us to review the message headers and any other information that may be attached to the email. We are working with law enforcement agencies to catch the perpetrators.
