“@neilglassman Time for capital punishment for spammers?”

“@wittlake Lots of followers, but are they really followers? The spammer is promoting an auto-follow tool, so they're prob other spammers!”

“Man, am I lucky. A Twitterer who looks just like Julia Stiles--in fact, exactly like--just sent me a random link. (Spammers are stoopid.)”

“Having reported about a dozen sexual spammers, I now know three words highly associated w/ spammer bios. I just can't post them.”

“@getwired "The #1 choice of spammers." Not much of an ad slogan.”

“What could go wrong if I clicked on a link from a Twitter spammer that offers free anti virus software? Let's find out... (No, not really.)”

“@delbius Thx, just wanted to confirm that obvious pre-spammers should be reported as spam and not just blocks. Appreciate the reply!”

“@delbius Example of acct I want to report: @AkikoX6709. Hot chick, vulgar bio, no tweets--obvious pre-spammer. Appropriate spam report?”

“@quinnbledsoe Thx for the RT. Twitter spam hasn't changed much since then, but I am getting lots of scripture-quoting spammers recently.”

“@teecycletim Spammers should (and do) break all those rules in my blog post. Good thing, too--makes it easy to ID them!”

“@getwired Wouldn't you think spammers would focus on people with 100 followers and not 10,000? More experienced Twitterers won't fall for...”

“@kt_anna Do spammers ever use handsome and/or scantily clad men? Or is it always women wearing little? Are men that susceptible to spammers?”

“Lazy Twitter spammers. The least you could do is replace the "egg" profile picture with a person's photo!”

“Apologies to anyone who got spam from me. My Ping.fm account was hacked. I just deleted it, so all should be normal now. (Damn spammers!)”

“@confgirl06 Spammers are outsourcing American jobs spamming!”

“@epodcaster Hmmm, that may be my next blog post: 10 Tips for Twitter Spammers. (Might get hate tweets for that.)”

“@CarriBugbee I'm quick to report spammers on Twitter. Considering how spam swamped email, it seems Twitter's doing a fine job stomping twam.”

“A lot of folks on twitter are ROFL about pics of me today. How can so many people lose control of their accounts to spammers simultaneously?”

“@robsaker I have seen a small increase in daily spam tweets since my experiment baiting spammers a week ago. You may be right.”
