"Twitter Support" phish

This phish claims to be from Twitter, but it actually redirects to a fake site at adcopy.awbweb.com/differential.html hosted on 216.81.74.9 which appears to be a legitimate site that has been hijacked.

Glad you posted this. If it weren't for the fact that I don't tweet, I probably would have clicked on through. Any idea what would have happened? (Specifically--I understand the risk of malware, of being asked for personal financial info, etc., from phishing in general.
