    lol uhhh, that is not what is meant here, and, um, you know it.

    But I was thinking...I could open a page, get 10,000 in short order, and turn around and sell it to some dumbass who thinks it is worth something.

    He'd be ripped off, and I could care less.

    If you live inside the USA, that is called wire fraud and its a federal offense. It would not be the local police that would come knocking on your door, it would be the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The punishment for wire fraud can be up to 20 years in prison and up to a 1 million dollar fine.

    If your twitter follower is not targeted ,It worth nothing. and BTW, the accounts have less than 2000 followers worth nothing too ,because it is easy to get.

    I dont think twitter site is really worth anything. Just another overblown fad like how 8 years ago everyone was saying "OMG DO YOU HAVE A MYSPACE PROFILE?!".. Now everyone is like 'whats myspace?'.. You may get some extra sales out of it, but not worth the effort IMO when there are better avenues for advertising.

    You are showing your nerdy side, Kev.

    Were you a hall monitor in school? :D


    No, I am afraid that it is not.

    lol you actually copied and pasted that? Damn, son.

    There is no deceiving. No lies. No made up numbers....

    What I am saying is, and I thought it was perfectly clear the first time, that although it may have, say, 10,000 followers, if any dumbass thinks it is worth something and the fool is willing to buy it, I will gladly sell it to him. Even one with 100,000 is worth very, very little.

    If he is stupid enough to buy it, I won't feel sorry for him, not one iota.

    Right now there is a site selling 1,000 new followers for $79, but I highly doubt that those sort of followers will be doing anything for you other than maybe cosmetically enhancing your profile with a large numbers of followers.

    Ok, I admit it, I don't twitter, but I'm about to
    start!

    I just heard on the radio that a man was able
    to get an ambulance through twittering b/c
    his cell phone died!

    Wow. I never thought that people really buy twitter accounts. I personally think that with a thousand amount of followers, you are not totally sure if they are all quality followers are just some sort of spammers. :(

    If you know what to look for, it can be quite easy to differentiate between spam accounts and accounts with mainly targeted followers.

    i don't think it is much profitable to have a account on it, it doesn't bring a lot which we expect from it, it is just a waste of time

    getting niche followers is bit hard but again if you regularly update your twitt on same direction there will be lots of profit of such account.
