Anyones valid answer is appreciated:

How is it that moments after opening a twitter account, 2 or 3  
'spam' followers have already found it?

Drives me crazy. Thanks.

Thank you Taylor. Yes I changed my password as soon as this thing came
on my page.
Thank you again for your help :)

 Hi Shabaz,

 At some point you may have inadvertently (or intentionally) given your login
 and password to a third party application using what we call basic
 authentication. You should be able to stop their ability to tweet on your
 behalf by changing your password. This method of authenticating will be
 going away very soon, but until then changing your password is the best
 defense.

  I think there is some problem.

  I have an account FriendCaller on twitter (twitter.com/friendcaller),
  and some tweets were being sent through API (clicking the API brings
  me here.
  These tweets are related to some shopping stuff.
  Tweets go like this:
  I put in my email and got a free $1000 best buy gift card!
  When I search on google for this exact string with quotes, I saw
 http://buzztter.com/en/k/emailwhich shows the same tweet tweeted by
  many users, some profiles even with a very few followers, so I think
  its not the job of the 'free following' websites.
  There seem to be some very severe problem, for which I need a solution
  asap, because I cannot delete the tweets. It comes again and again
  itself.

  Help please!
