I have been on twitter for many moons with few followers. Lately I've been getting tons of followers posing as pretty women.
All with join dates a year or more old with few followers ,but following many, with zero replies or post on their accounts.
Apparently you can start an account on X using a phone with the date set wrong and create these accounts.
I found a forum that briefly discussed this:
"Aha I got it now!!!
well in this case this person when he is signing up for Twitter his phone time and date was in 1970, so he was using an old phone that whenever he gets into any site they show him that the certificate is expired and this mostly happens in Nokia"
Just a FYI.
