Fake Twitter Account Worries MTN

The suspended Twitter account, @MTN_NG, which mimics telecommunications giant, MTN Nigeria, has re-emerged on the micro-blogging service.

@MTN_NG began tweeting in January 20, 2011. It gained  the attention of both MTN subscribers and non-subscribers on the social service for about two weeks at the time, before it was  suspended.

For instance, when ChuckyLovesYou tweeted at the handle, @MTN_NG, on January 30, 2011, saying “You na no well sha,”,  the man behind the MTN parody account tweeted back,  saying, “Our oga is a black belt in Kararte, he has also taken some kung fu lessons. Please, keep that in mind when you threaten us.”
