I recently realized that an email address of mine had been used to create a twitter account in 2013. The name is in Arabic and the newsfeed I received was all articles (in English) on the Russian aircraft that went down in Egypt. I searched the account details and discovered that the IP address used to create account was located in Saudi Arabia. All of the followers were also Arabic names.

I deactivated the account and changed all the names and things but I am wondering what other precautions I should do based on hacking concerns. Any advice appreciated.

You'd better get over to SA and hand yourself over to the authorities so you can receive proper punishment for your insults ;)

I don't understand how this can happen? Doesn't Twitter confirm your E-mail once you register with that E-mail address?
