Faking It – The Business of Fake Followers

See on Scoop.it – Enterprise Social Media

“What’s a fake follower? It may be a bot or someone who created a Twitter account, followed some people and is no longer active. There’s a lot of faking taking place on sites like Twitter and Facebook. Anyone can buy Twitter followers using one of the many services that promises active followers for around $1,000. In fact, dealers of fake followers can make up to $800 a day.”

Fake followers are despicable, but it is rumored that some major brands use them.

Have you heard of any reputable business using this technique? Please comment below.
