Hacked or fake accounts. I clicked on on one and the website was blocked because it was tryin to take my info. If you get anything like that, dont click on it again.

yes, that's exactly what it is - a phishing page - and if you check it again now, you will see that it has been suspended because that activity is highly illegal
