Twitter direct messages out of control: 3Jam resending old direct messages
Apparently there's been a change in the Twitter API and direct messages from Twitter are out of control.
3Jam just attempted to send every single DM I've ever received (DM's that it already sent) in the space of a few minutes. It's blown through $7.80 in a very short time frame and only stopped when I ran out of credit. You can see this on my account history page.
Can anything be done?
Thanks

Inappropriate?BTW 3Jam -- you've stopped sending the DMs. You just charge the account now. Don't think we haven't noticed.
I’m cross

Inappropriate?Sorry, all. We're looking into this and will rectify the situation as soon as we get to the bottom of this - thanks for letting us know.

Inappropriate?Hi all, this should be fixed now and you should all have gotten credit for messages during this outage. Turns out Twitter changed their API to return all messages sent to users even though it should have only returned new messages. We've changed the functionality on our side to check this now.

Inappropriate?Wanted to confirm -- 3JAM did indeed refund the credits and fix the issue.
I’m thankful
