Remember Stephen Frygate on Twitter? This afternoon chief execs at Vodafone will be extremely red faced after a massive blunder on their Twitter account.
An employee managed to tweet a fairly offensive message to the world which resulted in a spectacular page of @replies:
The company has already issued two desperate pleas for forgiveness across to all people who responded to the tweet and appear to be frozen in panic as I write this post. The one positive may be that their followers will increase out of pure rubbernecking curiosity to see how this car crash pans out.
This perfectly illustrates the dangers of social media and why as a large corporate it is important to regulate access and activity to your accounts. We speak to a lot of big brands about these issues and whether it is right for them to dive into social mediia, as a result it will be extremely interesting to see the fallout of this event and how they handle it.
Oh and by the way Vodafone – if you need reputation management from an award winning digital agency just give us a call 
Well what actually happened then? What was the tweet?
Hi Marc,
I decided in the interests of diplomacy not to publish the tweet but Google will provide if you have a look. Needless to say it’s not good…
