As any other social networking tool, Twitter also crowded with spammers every hour and every day.

You wake up one day and excited to see that Barack Obama is following you only later to realize that it’s a fake one

How to report Spam?

Reporting spammer to Twitter is very easy. Just two steps all together. All you have to do is

  • Follow the official Twitter Spam report a/c which is @spam
  • DM(Direct Message) to the @spam a/c under the following format – d spam <spam user name>

For Example, if you want to mark a spammer named @fakebarackobama, then you have to send a DM as

d spam @fakebarackobama

That’s it, Twitter will take care of dealing with the spam a/c & most of the time their response is very quick :)
