There are parody accounts that will filter through specific topics and respond to unsuspecting users, like @THEUNlVERSE.\nThere are still spam accounts using automated third-party applications too. As Twitter cracks down, the more sophisticated spambots find ways to avoid suspension.\n\n\nSEE ALSO: Want to Hear a Song?
