And it is making it super simple to verify your account.<br \/>\nPreviously, Twitter verification was a bit difficult, and there wasn\u2019t really a set way to do it. There was talk about needing to wait for the @Verified account to follow you and then it\u2019ll get you verified. Or you could pay (this was the shady method) to get verified.<br \/>\nThen we started seeing lots of popular accounts getting hacked for Bitcoin scams in 2018, like Elon Musk and Bill Gates\u2019 accounts. So Twitter paused verification. But now it\u2019s back, and it is super simple to get verified.<br \/>\nHow can I get my Twitter account verified?<br \/>\nAccording to Twitter\u2019s announcement today, it is very easy to start the verification process.

Just tap on that option.<br \/>\nThen you\u2019ll be asked to provide some information, like what category you fall into (government official, journalist, influencer, etc), and then providing identification.<br \/>\nTwitter says that the entire process should only take a couple of days.

And for many, getting verified is definitely important. Especially those that are popular, so that other users know which account is really theirs. Seeing as we\u2019ve seen a lot of parody and fake scamming accounts for popular people as of late.
