Twitter Auto Follow Script

    Hello,
    I am wanting someone to to write me a script which automatically makes people follow a twitter account (if they're logged into twitter) by visiting a web page.

    Should be pretty straight forward if you can work with twitters API.

    PM me if you are interested with a price. I don't have time to haggle so give me your best price first time.

    regards

    Isn't possible, unless you ask them to login on your site and then autofollow the account.

    But I'm assuming you don't want people to know that they've just autofollowed someone.

    True , Conveyed the same thing to the thread creator. If that is the case, Getting followers would be a piece of cake :)

    Doing this could also get your twitter account closed. Try getting followers the normal way, it's more fun :)

    It would be possible if you could find an XSS vulnerability, though.

    Ahh people. I don't want to do this in a dishonest/unethical fashion. I simply want the script to detect when they're already logged into twitter and give them a prompt like "Do you want to follow us" it would then make them follow the account without them having to put their username and password in.

    Dude, Is that prompt going to make any difference in the technical backend ?, What if i don't want to put that prompt . In that case i would be getting unlimited followers just by driving them to my page .

    Do i make sense ?

    I think what he's trying to say is that if that was possible people would just do it but without the prompt and get lots of followers.

    It's not possible. You could take their username and password and then have them follow, though.

    Although this is possible, your account would be banned by lots of people block you.

    you can do it with css layers & clickjacking. They did some javascript to make it not work with an iframe, but you can still do it with css layers... just do a search for that.

    See, I myself want to put a button on my website that says "follow me on twitter" that actually FOLLOWS me rather than go to twitter.com & asking them to click.

    I'll pitch in on some money as well if someone can do this...

    Do you mean like a script which scrap the site for a twitter account link and automatically send a message "follow us".? I also would like to know if it is possible to know a user already logged into twitter..
