Title: Fake twitter accounts posting about Bitcoin
Post by: Bazil on July 01, 2011, 08:58:24 PM
I noticed there is suddenly a large number of fake twitter accounts tweeting canned tweets about bitcoin.  Several dozen tweets an hour.  Maybe someone is trying to manipulate the price of bitcoin by doing this?
