Dear Larry,
We hope you have been keeping well after your visit to our offices last year whilst on you tour of Silicon Valley. It was indeed a pleasure hosting you, and we’re glad you were able to leave here the envy of many: With a verified Twitter account.
Actually, this letter is as regards this small matter of the account verification.
We at Twitter HQ are rather certain you remember this ninja named Wendi Deng, wife to Rupert Murdoch. (The case linked is that during the UK Hackgate proceedings.)

It has been brought to our attention that a Wendi Deng Murdoch Twitter account we verified - and left as such for close to 24 hours - was, in actual fact, a fake.
Although for an old aging couple, we recommend a voice application as a tweeting aid.
In light of these embarrassing developments, we need to take time to seal a few loopholes in our verification process.
We therefore regret to inform you that that delightful little tick after your account name will go missing for a while as we iron out this matter.
Do not read too much into the fact that it’s only your verified account being unverified - temporarily, of course - as we attend to the matter; it’s just that Lady Gaga sent us e-invites to one of her private shows.
We’d also like to state that this temporary un-verification has nothing whatsoever to do with your country of origin, Africa.
Looking forward to reinstating your Verified Status as soon as possible. We hope this will not have any impact on your tweeting habits.
All the best with your noontime business show.
xoxo (Warm regards),
Twitter HQ.

Note: We never use the word “ninja”. The situation mentioned above called upon the use of the word.
