Fake Disney Junior Twitter Account Suspended for Profanity and Racial Slur Use.

A fake Disney Junior-branded Twitter account with the handle @DisneyJuniorUK has been suspended after receiving a gold tick from the social media platform. The account, which is completely unaffiliated with Disney, tweeted several offensive messages before being shut down. It is unknown how the holder got the gold tick, which is reserved for the official and verified accounts of businesses who pay $1,000 per month. Disney reps in the UK became aware of the fake account this morning and contacted counterparts at Twitter immediately. Several Twitter users spotted the apparent mistake, with some decrying the ongoing confusion over verification after Twitter removed and then reinstated several blue ticks over the weekend.
