ok, thanks. So, why would someone want to buy followers?

There are several websites that offers this service, e.g, Fast Followerz. For a fee, they give you thousands of followers. It was discovered that some celebrities and companies use this to boost their twitter accounts. I know it is also possible to buy followers for an unsuspecting friend, because some of these providers do not require password for the sale. I don't know how it works but I'm sure you will find information on Google.

I guess I just plain don't get it! Why would I want a bunch of fake followers?

Popularity contest? Gunning for the next Bachelor?

He's not even tweeting anything.

Thats my guess.

Though tptb could be behind it more than he.

The next Bachelor was my thought as well... still don't understand why someone would want that but to each his own lol

She was wondering if some sort of spoiler was released yesterday that has caused the spike . Not that we know of eh ?
Perhaps girls have seen some preview on TV and decided to all follow him.

Oh and he has a picture of a baby with a jumper saying soemthing about being single

That pic is of his adorable nephew. It was taken at Valentine's Day.

There is NO WAY his followers could have jumped that high overnight for no apparent reason. He or someone else (it's possible to buy for another person without their knowledge) bought those followers!

Maybe he is buying them to increase his numbers for next bachelor?

Edited - I see others have made the same assumption too. Really need to read to the end of the thread before commenting.

Drew had 1500 followers on Monday..... Make your own conclusions...

Just a little tidbit: To buy followers for a twitter account you need to be in charge of the the said account..(password, email, etc....)

Now mix this with the buying of a website(one which was registered in AZ on a name that has several marketing purpose sites to its name)

He does seem sincere but he/or his family is/are undoubtedly gunning for him to be the next Bachelor....

Has this kind of campaign (IF this is indeed one) ever happened in the past?

by nd4reality Fri Jun 07, 2013 5:14 pm

Can you get a virus on these types of accounts ? Just wondering. Those numbers are certainly "viral" Hugesmile
