Symantec released new report about a twitter spamming campaign they have been following. Might give some people ideas. Enjoy.

Link to the down load page please there's something fishy about this, I can't find it on Symantec public database.

I.e. not the pdf direct download.

Good read, but they didn't give out the name at the end of the white paper, even though they said they know who is the guy behind the operation. Thats the juiciest part

Nothing new about this method... most real marketers use this or system similar to this on twitter and have been doing so for at least 5 years
