I've received a number of these phantom follower requests, or been followed by people with "thousands" of followers but with only 2 or 3 tweets - whats the deal with this? Something about it just seems wrong, and who are these mystery followers?
I doth protest- this feels like a scam...

they tend to be the ones after followers to look big, so they tend to follow you in hopes that you follow back and if you don't within a couple days of weeks they tend to unfollow you 8S
at times I'm not sure if its a person or a bot doing it as if it was me... GOD would I be bored doing that >.
My sentiments exactly. I seem to think it is robots... and who would follow someone who's only got 2 tweets in as many months - both advertising "free twitter followers". The way I know that something ain't right, is because with every new follower I usually get an email notification. But I don't get any email for these 'phantom followers'...
