Twitter Verifies Chess Queen™ Alexandra Kosteniuk’s @chessqueen Account
Hello everyone! I’m pleased to report that Twitter management contacted me and proposed to “verify” my account “@chessqueen” so that nobody would have any doubt that “@chessqueen” is my account (there are sometimes impersonation attempts using my name Alexandra Kosteniuk or trademark “chess queen”). So now you can be sure that my English Twitter account is @chessqueen. As far as I know, I am the first professional chess player or Grandmaster whose account has been “verified” by Twitter – and the only one at this time. If you know of anybody else whose Twitter account is verified and who is a GM (Grandmaster), please let me know!
My other accounts on Twitter are @kosteniuk (in Russian, I post there more photos as that account is linked to my Instagram account “chessqueen”), @chessblog (my general chess blog www.chessblog.com – top chess blog in the USA), and @chessking (my chess education site: www.chess-king.com).

As far as I know Alexandra really started this social media trend among chess players. There was no one else until they started copying you! Congratulations on the blue check mark.
So, it’s obvious that Chess Queen is the first and only GM with a verified twitter account. I like it.! Proud to be your fan.

I wish you all the strength and good luck in keeping up your efforts in spreading the love of chess and life across the world.
