Can a tweet be traced to me?

[Allie Madison]

I gained access to a school account's twitter password and want to tweet that class is cancelled as a joke. If I tweet it from my phone, can they trace it back to me?

Obviously, you don't understand that this is considered hacking and it can be traced back to your phone. What you want to do is not a joke and it's not funny. This is something you can be arrested for. Even if the school doesn't press charges, you can be thrown out indefinitely. I don't get why you kids insist on playing with things you don't understand. I also don't get why you want to mess around with other people's lives like this.
