Jump to PostSo many possible highly sarcastic answers that my head may explode. The easiest answer is the number of fake followers is proportional to your political or financial advantage in having followers.
Or, if your name is Trump, you can just lie about it.

There are quite a handful of companies that do it. FollowerAudit, Twitter Audit, etc.

It appears this was a spam laden question on another forum. The question has been struck down and is no more. In that case they were insincere in their request.
Here I want to see some facts. Give me the study results.
