People with thousands of followers would endorse tweets and promote things on their platforms, giving rise to an industry no one in the past could think would exist. The fake-followers bot companies.
For a certain amount of money, you’d be gifted with hundreds and thousands of followers which will largely sit inactive under your profile but, hey, at least the follower-count on your handle would show a high number.

Twitter has finally decided to do something about the problem at hand, as their policy explicitly prohibits buying of followers. Twitter said on Saturday that they are taking action against companies like Devumi, that provided bot-followers, and, poof, millions of followers from prominent accounts disappeared. India’s megastar Amitabh Bachchan seems to be one of the many who suffered the loss.
Also Clay Aiken, John Leguizamo, o and Lisa Rinna – some very popular Hollywood celebs – also saw their millions of followers vanish into thin air. As Twitter tightens its grip on the fake bot business, celebs like Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, etc might face the music soon, if found guilty.
