    @mashable Are you aware they've hit some accounts very hard with legitimate followers? I had 775 and I dropped to 22.

    @mashable (on a different account) - I can say 90% were legit - my mother and people I tweet daily were dropped.

    @mashable Ahh.. that explains the drop in follower count.. though I think it was more a count correction to match actual followers.
