This means that the management noted some suspicious behavior that might comprise your account.  The account remains suspended until the owner securely restores. This done  to reduce any chance of possible malicious activity that can occur.

To unlock such a case, you only need to secure it by changing your password. If there is an email that is associated with that account, instructions are sent to the email address. In case you don’t get such an email from Twitter, it is always good to check from your junk, spam, and social folder.

 

  • Abuse Behaviors and Tweets.

Engaging in abusive languages such as sending other people threats or impersonating can have led to temporary suspension and in other cases, may lead to the account being locked permanently.
