I just made a twitter account and four random people are already following me?

Here's the thing with twitter. It's a great way to connect with friends, especially if you aren't seeing them on a regular basis. However, twitter is now kind of infiltrated by spammers and internet marketers too, just to promote sites or their products. Others are just plain watching people's tweets since if you haven't protected your updates, it would be visible to the public timeline. And the remaining people, they want to have as many followers as they could. Keep in mind that there are plenty of tweeter sites where you could get plenty of followers.

I think the best way is just to protect your updates Hope this helps.
